What do you mean by 'for all game dogs'?
The use of 'game' in our tagline is a wordplay. It describes both our main ingredient and the willing nature of a typical working or active dog. We think it's also a fitting way to describe the character of many smaller breeds like Dachshunds or Terriers.
Ultimately, Hoddy's is a fantastic product for all active dogs - no matter their size.

Is Hoddy's suitable for my puppy?
Hoddy's has been designed to meet the nutritional needs of adult working and other active dogs.

If you are unsure about what to feed your puppy we recommend that you get advice from a responsible breeder.
