What is the BuddyMeal Discovery Box?
The Discovery Box is a once-off trial of your dog's own personalised BuddyMeal blend. It isn't a subscription and there's nothing to cancel. It's simply a chance to see how your Buddy enjoys food made specifically for them.
Like every BuddyMeal order, it starts with our quiz. Your answers about your dog are used to build their personalised formulation and feeding plan, so even your trial box is made for your dog, not a generic sample.
What's inside the box?
For R397.50, your Discovery Box includes:
- A 3kg bag of personalised BuddyMeal, made for your dog based on their quiz answers
- A measuring cup, so you can portion each meal accurately
- A personalised feeding plan showing how much to feed your dog
- A food transition guide to help you move from their current food gradually
- BuddyMeal stickers, just for fun
Why the Discovery Box is the perfect tester
A food can look great on paper, but the real test is how it fits into your dog's day-to-day life. The Discovery Box gives you time to see that for yourself.
See if your Buddy loves it
Some dogs dive straight in, while others take a little longer to warm up to something new. A 3kg bag gives your dog enough meals to settle in and show you how they really feel about their food.
Check how it fits your routine
Every household is different. Busy mornings, multiple feeding times or a dog who prefers smaller meals all affect how a food works for you. Using the measuring cup and feeding plan for a while shows you how easily BuddyMeal slots into your routine.
Watch how your dog responds
Over the trial, keep an eye on the things that matter to you: energy levels, coat condition, digestion and general enthusiasm at mealtimes. These everyday signs are the best indicators of whether a food suits your dog's lifestyle.
Switch gradually and with confidence
Changing food too quickly can upset a dog's tummy. The included transition guide helps you mix BuddyMeal with their current food step by step, so the change is comfortable for your Buddy.
No long-term commitment
Because the Discovery Box is a once-off purchase, you can try BuddyMeal without signing up to anything. If your Buddy loves it, you can move onto a BuddyMeal plan with confidence that it's the right food for them.
