My dog loves this food and he is usually a very picky eater

My dog has had gut and skin issues so I thought I'd try lyka to see if it would help. As suggested started him on half lyka half his usual meal… Read more

(prime 100) for the first delivery and he did well on this- his digestion settled and he liked the food. I considered moving him onto full meals but realised I will really struggle to fit all that food in my freezer, it is also very expensive. So I tried changing the plan to a half bowl to make it more affordable and to ensure I can fit it all in the freezer. To my surprise this didn't change the size of the next order, but it did increase the price by about $30-$35 (as best I remember). After digging around, because it wasn't at all clear, I realised with half bowl plans they don't change the size of the order, they just change the frequency of delivery to monthly rather than fortnightly. This doesn't fix the storage issue and there was no option to have fortnightly delivery. I also can't figure out how they justify charging so much more for exactly the same product to per delivery! I could understand them charging more if they delivered half the full amount, but it's exactly the same product per delivery! It turned out to be a good thing for me as this prompted me to keep looking around and I found an option which contains higher proportion of meat than lyka, is air dried so doesn't need to be stored in the freezer, is significantly cheaper and my dog absolutely loves it. And I have control over how much they deliver and how frequently. Lyka might be a good option if you have a small dog, but for medium sized dogs and larger the freezer space required, and the price, become prohibitive.

The rescue I got my pup from started him on this and sent him home with a starter pack. It was great till I discovered the rescue had to pay full… Read more

price while they raised him on it & buy the starter bag. By comparison Blackhawk has a breeder program where for profits can get free puppy packs to send home with new owners & 40% off retail for the bulk puppy food they use on site. Not ethical to charge not for profit rescues rehoming litters MORE than for profit breeders. Not using anymore.

I wanted to find a biscuit treat for my 7 month old cavoodle and these just fit the bill. She absolutely adores them and thankfully no side effects.… Read more

She has one a day and her little teeth are loving the crunch. Great packaging and a good price for the size of the packet. Also, love the 50% donation to help save rescue dogs. What a wonderful incentive!! Highly recommend.

My two fussy cats love these treats sprinkled over some good quality biscuits. What a fabulous healthy addition to their diet.

I recently started feeding this to my adult cat and her 5 kittens. As soon as they ate it, both the mother cat and one of her kittens started having diarrhoea and vomited multiple times. Show details

show signs of improvements with surgery booked for further investigations next month.

UPDATE: 28 FEBRUARY 2026

Its the first goodlooking stool in over a year and my releif at this point is beyond words (Image attached): For the first time in over 12 months, Ellie’s faeces are normal. No blood. No runny mess. No pain. Since stopping Ivory Coat just days ago, the "mystery" illness that haunted us for over a year has vanished. I feel like a "bad mum" for trusting this brand for 10 years, but the truth is, the food was the primary cause of her harm.

​THE COST OF TRUST: Since January 2025, I have endured: ​• An exhorberant anount in vet bills for specialists and endless testing. ​• A year of chronic vomiting, bloody stools, and incontinence. • Antibiotics for her swollen Anus that was excreting pus ​• Up to 4 baths a day to keep her clean and comfortable whereby I needed to make 100% cotton diapers. ​

THE COMPANY’S RESPONSE: Ivory Coat replied with a generic template. They offered a "veterinary nurse" chat, but a DM cannot fix a year of trauma or the fact that their "recipe adjustments" are making pets deathly ill.

​WARNING: Ivory Coat is NOT the high-quality brand it was a decade ago. Since The Real Pet Food Co. took over and moved production to Dubbo, the quality has declined significantly. Don't wait a year as I did—if your pet is sick, change the food. It saved my girl’s life.

WARNING: Life - Threatening Health Issues – Undisclosed Ingredient Changes ​ Please be warned: Ivory Coat is no longer the high-quality product it was 10 years ago. Following the brand’s acquisition by The Real Pet Food Co and their 2022 move to a new manufacturing facility in Dubbo, the recipes were significantly altered.

While the company admits to "recipe adjustments," many pet parents believe that unhealthy, toxic ingredients are being used that are not properly disclosed on the packaging. ​I do not understand how retailers in Australia continue to stock these products without notifying customers of the documented risks.

The health implications for your beloved pooch or cat can be life-threatening. You can view the extensive history of these issues via the Australian Pet Owners Group (APOG) issue log: https://www.apog.com.au/recall-issue-log/ivory-coat/.

​My personal experience has been devastating. Since the change of ownership, Ellie, my toy poodle has been suffering from: Severe fevers, Inconsistent vomiting, Chronic diarrhoea and blood in stools alongside five months of Incontinence, rashes, allergies and more. ​ My pooch has been in so much discomfort, in and out of hospitals, requiring numerous specialists, endless tests, and up to four baths per day and all since the beginning of January 2025. Until this post I could not pinpoint what was occurring nor could our team of Drs, who've all undergone their utmost to have Ellie as comfortable as we could in her time of need, the bills reign in.

It is heartbreaking that a company is allowed to operate in such a way here in Australia all the while pets suffer. If Australia had a governing body, to regulate pet food we Aussies would not need to see our pets suffer.

Please note: Without a governing body here in Australia to regulate our beloved pets food, who can we trust, who has our pets best interests at heart and why isn't the government implementing change when it's companies such as this one whom will standadise responses given they are not the ones forking out the dollars to save my best friend and nor do I feel they care, if they did they'd start implementing change like many other start up dog food companies are, now they care so please do your own research for peace of mind and clarity. My experience is unfortunately backed by hundreds of similar reports on consumer sites—do not risk your pet’s life on this once-trusted brand.

I bought bulk of the chicken amd bacon treats and opened the sealed bag to find the treats are covered in mould. I called masterpet to notify them… Read more

and they referred me to the retail store I bought them from. I am concerned they didn't take any details of the matter to investigate this matter themselves.

My Cavoodle loved the chicken or beef shredded meat ,hates the new replacements. Please bring them back. They sold really well, why change them?

Buyer beware. Pet-Tags AU is NOT the same business as Pettags Australia. I made the mistake and bought from the wrong business when I got my new… Read more

puppy this year. The tag on the left was bought from Pettags Australia in 2014 and is still perfectly clear to read. My dog is still wearing it even when she swims. The tag on the right is a "brass" tag from Pet-tags AU, only 3 months old and impossible to read already. These tags are the same price for very different quality. Don't make the same mistake as me.

Our two cats have grown up using the Applaws products and they always run and fight over who gets the first bite. Ginger loves the Applaws treats and… Read more

would literally swallow them whole if we turn our back for a second. Whereas Genie would steal the whole pouch and run under the bed to eat it.

I don’t know what makes them this irresistible but just make sure not to leave them lying around or you could be confused as we were.

I had to introduce slowly but after a few days was feeding only Tyga. I put a little water on it as well mainly so my ginger Odee is getting some… Read more

extra water. Odee seems much more satisfied in relation to food now. He no longer seems to be starving and eating too quickly. I have also noticed he is not vomiting which is an added bonus. I feed him all of the available Tyga cat foods.

Both my girls, 6 and 8yo, dont like these due to the biscuit itself being so hard to bite through. We usually steer towards Purina One Senior… Read more

Biscuits or the Optimum Fur Ball Biscuits, both are thinner and less effort to break through. Personal opinion, the bsicuits dont seem to have any negative impact on the girls.

I have purchased a few of these packs and the treats are full of small sharp particles. I think they are bone fragments which can be VERY DANGEROUS. I would not buy these ever again!

Fantastic products! Bought ours last Dec and whilst it looks awesome and the original grass is still looking great 3 months on, our lovely little… Read more

Lumi (cavoodle) hasn't shed a drop of anything yet. She's been on it plenty of times and had a good sniff etc. We've used/placed smells from her own wees and poos etc. Tried all the tricks from the tips section of this site. Just wondering if anybody else has had any similar struggles??

Terrible customer service, they couldn't answer a simple question. I bought a bed from a competitor because this brand's beds are fully enclosed, and… Read more

I wanted a sofa-style design with an open side for my long-legged dog. However, I still wanted to buy their fitted sheets to make washing easier, but there are no sizing measurements listed on their website. Obviously, they have this information somewhere since they manufacture the sheets to specific specs. I thought they would look up the measurements, send them to me, and update their website to help future buyers. But no, zero effort. I do not recommend this company. Complete lack of willingness to help customers.

prints everywhere after using the litter. Even after using only a small amount, the mess is not worth it. I definitely wouldn’t buy it again.

I adopted my dog at 8 weeks and couldn’t understand why he would refuse to eat and was so itchy. At one point he was having a cytopoint injection… Read more

every 3 weeks at quadruple the advised dosage just to stop him scratching himself to the point of bleeding. The vet insisted it was probably grass allergies but Im so glad I got his fur tested and found out he was sensitive to nearly all food items - not grass at all! We have tried a few single protein diets over his 4 years of life but I have just started him on the Billy + Margot insect protein diet for the first time… heabsolutely loves it! He requesting to be fed via his “food” button. If you never had a dog refusing to eat, you probably won’t understand… but it is so nice to see him finally, truly enjoying his food. He might even have to go on a diet to stop him getting fat!

Why have they discontinued this product – Why have they discontinued this product ... this was hands down the best and only clumping litter that actually worked properly. We have 3 cays, this was the ONLY litter that would keep the litter tray fresh and clean. Show details
