We compare Bezzie and Lyka dog food services and tell you which one we think is the best.
Read our reviews on both these products
Bezzie offer cooked (Lightly cooked over low heat), kibble and raw food options, they do not offer separate supplements.
Kibble is usually over processed, they often contain a lot of preservatives and fillers. Bezzie states that their bites, include the same foundational ingredients as the lightly cooked meals.
Lyka offer lightly cooked human grade meals, and they also have pet treats and supplements (and a ‘Go-To-Gut Helper’ in powder form).
Lyka does not offer raw or kibble food options.
Based on the cost of 2 weeks of dog food for a 7 year old Briard who is 22kg.
Dog owners know how expensive dog food can be. By choosing Bezzie dog food instead of Lyka, you can save a whopping $107.65. That’s more money for dog toys, treats, and belly rubs!
A higher price tag does not always guarantee better quality. While some products may be worth the extra money, many are simply priced higher due to branding or marketing efforts.
Apart from branding and marketing efforts, another reason why Lyka may cost more is because they have taken major steps to reduce their environmental impact and support sustainability across their entire supply chain.
They source ingredients from Aussie farmers, never wasting produce, and have even installed solar panels on their Sydney kitchen. They only work with partners who are invested in a sustainable future. They offset in excess of what they emit and also sponsor some of the best carbon offset projects in Australia. It is clear that this commitment to the environment may come at a higher cost.
Bezzie’s emphasis on sustainability is not quite as strong. It’s worth noting that Bezzie’s meals are prepared in Australia and are also sourced sustainably, but it’s simply not their main focus. If you can afford it and and you’re looking for a meal delivery service that appears to put the planet first, Lyka may be the better choice.
When it comes to Lyka and Bezzie, in terms of taste, Lyka is said to be so good, humans give it a try themselves (if you don’t mind a little bit of gross-out factor). Don’t just take our word for it – check out the photos and videos on Lyka’s website of happy humans testing out the dog food.
Bezzie uses ‘human grade’ but I don’t see humans tasting it. In terms of overall quality I am not sure which Eb preferred the most because he enjoyed both.
Let’s take a closer look at the finer details that make one brand stand out from the other.
Surprising fact – Bezzie boasts additional ingredients compared to Lyka’s in the cooked food! If you included the ingredients in Lyka’s supplements the list gets bigger but without those Bezzie has a lot of additional ingredients. This unexpected revelation has left me wondering if Bezzie is actually better.
This comparison is focusing on the cooked food, supplements are an additional cost not included in this comparison.
