Born out of love
With love as the source, Ruffey dog food is always committed to creating the best state for your pet's health, bringing unparalleled taste enjoyment and total care for your dog.
Brand story
Born in Melbourne and inspired by Ruffey Lake Park, we are a family-owned brand dedicated to the bond between pets and their humans. We operate with deep respect for the Traditional Custodians of this land, blending ancient wisdom
with modern wellness.
"Good enough" isn't enough for our best friends. While industrial cooking uses high heat that kills off vital nutrients, we do things differently. We believe every pet deserves a diet that respects their biological roots.
In our Australian family owned kitchen, we’ve traded ovens for technology that mimics the natural air-drying power of the Outback wind. This gentle process locks in the living nutrition nature intended, giving your pet the foundation for a long, vibrant life.
Our Commitment

Expertly Crafted Dog Nutrition
Promoting animal wellbeing naturally
Our recipes are crafted with the guidance of experienced pet nutrition experts who share our passion for natural, holistic care. At Ruffey, we believe in creating wholesome, nutrient-rich dog food that supports vitality, healthy digestion, and strong immunity at every life stage. Proudly made in small batches in Australia, our air-dried range combines premium proteins with carefully selected natural ingredients to deliver both nourishment and taste that pets love.

At Ruffey, we prioritize reducing waste across every stage of our process. From carefully managing production to minimizing by-products, we strive to ensure that resources are used efficiently. Our goal is to create nutritious food for pets while leaving as little behind as possible.
Responsibility
By openly sharing our sourcing, production, and sustainability efforts, we build trust and encourage responsible choices. Our commitment ensures every step we take aligns with our values and contributes positively to the environment and our community.

Sustainability extends beyond our operations. It’s about building stronger communities. Ruffey partners with local suppliers and works with organizations that share our values. By supporting local initiatives, we help create a positive impact that benefits pets, people, and the environment together.
Balanced Choice
Premium nutrition shouldn’t come with a premium price tag. Our goal is to make Air-Dried raw food accessible by offering honest, transparent pricing without unnecessary markups.
Committed to Industry Leading Safety Standards
In order to comply with the safety standards in the pet food industry, our production license is granted by PRIMESAFE & PFIAA. RUFFEY ensures that our facility's equipment, production line, packaging, transportation and other aspects meet the highest hygienic quality controls and global HACCP production standards.
