Reviews from the 5 Hounds Community
My Coco has been enjoying 5 hounds now for about 5 months. She loves them all. I have noticed a definite change in her body shape since changing over. My girl has Cushings disease and this diet seems to agree very well with her. Love, love, love ....
My dog Astro was an extremely fussy eater, since we swapped to 5 Hounds he will come up to me and nudge me while licking his lips to feed him.
He literally licks the bowl clean.
Honestly it’s the best thing we did giving him 5 Hounds especially knowing how good the quality is.
After a few digestive issues , we decided to shift Tilly's eating to a more natural state of protein. Within a week, there was no more bloating or bum scooting. Her coat is as shinier as ever and she has a more calm and content nature about her, even though her she is more active than ever. Her favourites are fish and kangaroo which she dares not share. Highly recommend 5 Hounds!
My boy is super fussy and usually gets bored of his food within the first month but im on my third month now and hes still gobbling it all up. I love the range of protein 5hounds have because I rotate proteins throughout the week!! I hope to see even more proteins in the future 😍 thank you 5Hounds!
My very fussy dog loves meal time now. If I’m not looking to feed her exactly on time she starts to prowl around glaring at me. Any further delays and she starts to bark at me. Her energy levels are amazing and she is polishing off her meal every night.
I've got 2 Golden Retrievers who couldn't be more opposite. One will eat anything in sight and the other is the fussiest I've ever met. We got onto 5 hounds after a consultation with Will as one of our Goldens has severe allergies and skin issues. Since changing over to 5 hounds, his health has improved dramatically and we are hoping to slowly be able to wean him off his medication once his gut health is back to normal. When I get the food out at night time, they literally jump in the air and do zoomies. At the start I was hesitant about the cost however we have worked with Will to get the subscription right to service our boys and I will now be continuing to make the investment rather than spending extra money at the vets! the follow up care from the team has also been great. Highly recommend.
My dog loves 5Hounds especially the beef and kangaroo. She is a fussy girl and hard to please but i have finally found something she likes :)
Thanks to Sienna and team for the individualised support we have received. We have been feeding raw for many years, but was really keen to remove chicken from Orlando's diet for various reasons. Since changing to 5 Hounds, we experienced some teething issues during the changeover and trying to stabilise his weight. Pointers are notoriously picky and difficult to sustain weight. It only took a week or two and we have arrived at the right amount of food and the right selection of menu options, with much email support back and forth. Orlando LOVES his new food and we look forward to sustained health when he has his next checkup. As Orlando is nearly 10 years old, and extremely active, an excellent diet is more crucial than ever. Thanks so much guys for all you do. It is worth the little extra expense.
Jackie is a very anxious little mini foxie who was frequently unwell and diagnosed with colitis. My journey with finding food for him has been a long and difficult one. During the first days on 5 Hounds, he was sick again and in despair, I emailed them. Dr Will took the time to call me back and reassured me, giving me advice about which food to give him for the time being. A few weeks later, Jackie loves the food and is thriving! I haven't seen him enjoy food like this and it is so, so good to see him healthy! Thank you, Dr Will and 5 Hounds!
11 month old Jude looks forward to breakfast and dinner. He licks his bowl clean every time. Very happy pet and owner.
Dora is a fussy Westie with gut issues that have been difficult to manage. Since starting on 5 hounds, her poo has been solid, she hasn’t had vomiting or stomach gurgling and whistling. She has tried all the flavours and hasn’t rejected one.
I struggled to find a food my 12month old cavoodle wouldn’t turn her nose up at but she loves 5 hounds! So much less stress now at feeding time.
We trialled 5Hounds previously with our 3 y.o golden retriever, and she was honestly so excited at mealtimes, something we hadn’t seen for some time.
Initially we were hesitant about the cost, though we have recently started a subscription, and Poppy has done happy dances at dinner time every day since!
We were having to add loads on incentive toppers to her kibble to encourage her to eat, but now she follows us around until 5 Hounds is served!
Charlie has been on this food for two months now and the improvement has been amazing. His skin has improved so much and he seems much happier and healthier. Overall the team are very caring and have been incredibly helpful throughout the process. We are really pleased with the results and will definitely recommend it to other dog owners.
I was home cooking food for my 2 Pompsky’s and it was a bit hit and miss as to whether they would eat it. Also, I was never sure if they were getting all the nutrition they needed. I am so happy to have found 5 Hounds, not only are they eating all the food at meal times, I am reassured knowing that they are getting the right balanced diet and looking so much healthier for it. Thanks so much Dr. Will.
I have two pups. Harry eats everything I put in his bowl and Archie turns his nose up at everything I put in his bowl (if he could live on greenies, he would!). Harry loves 5 Hounds Kangaroo and Beef, but the venison has changed the game for Archie! From constantly coaxing him to eat, and he’d pretty much would only eat chicken (freshly cooked, put on the floor, don’t look at him either…), now smashes the venison and leaves the chicken!!! I’m so excited. Fingers crossed he keeps it up! 💙💙
My two year old Groodle is loving 5hounds meals. I was making fresh food for him but wanted an easier option, as it was too time consuming. I feel very at ease with using 5hounds as I know he is still getting real human grade food , with the convenience of having it done for me and delivered to my door! I would definitely recommend for other fur parents.
Theo Love it. His favorite is Fish Bowl!
We used to make Theo's meals. Raw proteins, berries, veg, ground seeds, seaweed, hint of garlic... The list goes on. Lately we have been struggling to find the time and 5 Hounds have come to the rescue. We trust that 5 Hounds are delivering recipes with balanced nutrition. It's a huge time saver. And. Theo's loves every recipe. We had no issues transitioning him to 5 Hounds. The subscription is easy to manage; change delivery date, pause, stop, resume anytime.
Thank you 5 Hounds!

We’ve been so happy with our experience using 5 Hounds by Dr Will 🐾
Roxy has a sensitive stomach, so finding food that genuinely agrees with her hasn’t always been easy. Since introducing the goat and venison meals, her stomach issues have really settled, her coat looks beautiful and healthy, and her body condition is looking fantastic.
Most importantly, she absolutely loves the food and gets so excited at mealtimes 😋
It’s such a good feeling knowing she’s eating fresh, nourishing food that supports her wellbeing from the inside out. Highly recommend for anyone looking for high-quality fresh food options, especially for dogs with sensitive tummies 💛
Im afraid my dog has not taken to this well, his Poo's are runny and might be too much for his stomach.
My little girl is 4 and for most of her life we’ve been at the vet every 6-8 weeks for her anal glands. Since starting 5 hounds in January we haven’t been once! She also seems to have more energy. Dinner time can’t come around quick enough each day -there’s lots of excitement! She hasn’t become sick of the different flavours and she just loves it!
Franki has been chowing down on the amazing 5 Hounds food and probiotics for 5 months now and she has never been happier!
Her yeast issues have disappeared - this was something we battled with for most of her 8 years, trying a myriad of different approaches including food elimination, powders, sprays, washes, injections - you name it we've done it all.
Franki has more energy and no skin issues, no more ear troubles, her tail pocket is always clean and she always looks forward to eating her food. Especially the treats!
Thank you Dr Will for everything you have done for us, we both truly appreciate you!
It took Henry about four days to warm up to his new food — he’d been used to rump, venison, and kibble, so the transition was always going to take a little patience. I’ll admit I didn’t read the notes thoroughly and missed the tip to start with beef first, so jumping straight to kangaroo probably didn’t help! Once I followed the feeding guidance properly, everything turned around quickly. Henry now loves his meals, seems far more satisfied after eating, and we feel so much better knowing he’s on a balanced, kibble-free diet. A big thank you also for the complimentary prebiotics — a lovely touch. Highly recommend!
Bailey is a picky typical frechie. He is 9 years old and just diagnosed with Cushing disease, so we were looking for something natural, fresh and good for his skin and immunity. He lost a lot of his hair and put on a lot of weight, due to his condition and after a month of being on 5 hounds he is back to his normal weight and maintained it and his hair is looking shiny and slowly growing back. He loves it and it’s never a hassle to get him to finish his food now!
Thanks for the fantastic updates on the website, it’s so much easier for oldies, Gus loves the new venison meal.
