It takes Guts to save our planet!
Our Tale
How it started
Our story started 5 years ago. We (Achilles and Jack) got to know each other at Ghent University. It soon became clear that we have a lot in common. We both like discovering the world and pub nights, but most of all: we share a love for the planet and dogs, especially our faithful companions Otis and Choco.
Combining passions
Recently we found a way to combine these two passions. We are all trying to eat more consciously and ecologically. But what about the food we serve our dogs? We decided to come up with an answer to this question ourselves.

There are numerous advantages to eating insects. For example, did you know insects are …
HYPOALLERGENIC
Our kibble is hypoallergenic and therefore perfect for dogs with sensitive stomachs. Allergic reactions are a thing of the past, you can ask our very own Otis!
HIGH QUALITY PROTEINS
Not all proteins are easy to digest. That’s where Gutsy makes the difference. We only use high-quality and easy digestible proteins in our dog food.
AN ECOLOGICAL ALTERNATIVE
Thanks to their tiny ecological pawprint, you can feed your dog with a clean conscience
RICH IN VITAMINS & MINERALS
Thanks to the insects, apples, carrots and beets in Gutsy, we make sure to offer your dog a healthy diet.
NATURAL CLEANERS
The favorite food of insects? Our leftovers! They feed themselves with leftover wheat and beet sugar. So no planet was harmed by feeding insects.
Why try Gutsy?
planet friendly
Gutsy uses insects as an outstanding source of protein. The ecological footprint of insects is 30 times smaller per kg than that of beef. This means that by serving Gutsy you and your dog have the opportunity to reduce your own carbon footprint as well.
Locally produced
To keep our pawprint as small as possible, we try as much as possible to choose local products. All our delicious kibble are made on Belgium soil.
100% recyclable
Our packaging is made of mono-plastic, which means all bags are 100% recyclable. So please make sure to sort them after use!
