SeaBite is a completely natural, healthy and unique chew for dogs. The seaweed is sourced sustainably from the kelp forests of Southern Australia.

​

The idea came from Womble, a trainee seeing eye dog who would always find and chew large fronds of dried seaweed, when going for walks on the beach. We took a closer look and realised that it was the larger, completely dried leaves and fronds of a particular kind of bull kelp which Womble preferred. Not only did he prefer the natural, salty taste of the seaweed, we learned it is packed full of healthy minerals and compounds, rather than the chemicals and colourings of a standard dog chew. We also loved it because it didn't smell and was a true animal friendly alternative to the plastic, bone and other animal-based dog chews available. 

​

We then checked with a number of vets in the UK and Australia that these dried kelp fronds were safe and healthy for dogs, which they confirmed and endorsed. The next step was much testing with as many of our four-legged friends as possible. After enough wagging tails and happy woofs, SeaBite was born.

​

It is an added bonus that it comes from an environmentally friendly source. The seaweed forests where it grows act as giant carbon sinks; storing and sequestering CO2 from the atmosphere and cooling our climate. SeaBite sees these forests as an invaluable resource in need of protection and harvests only the fronds that are washed ashore as kelp forest debris. We do not harvest directly from the forest, we let nature take care of that for us.

​

SeaBite grows wildly in the near and offshore kelp forests off Tasmania's west coast.
