furbos home dog sleeping

It started with Nala

Furbos started because of one dog. A staffy cross named Nala who scratched herself bald from September to March, every single year, for four years. Two vet dermatology referrals. Three food trials. Eighteen months on Apoquel. A cone in the boot of the car permanently.

Nothing worked because nothing was fixing the barrier.

Every product we were handed managed the symptom. Suppress the immune response, wait, watch it come back sooner than last time, book another consult. Nobody was talking about the structure underneath, the collagen barrier that is supposed to keep the allergens on the outside of the skin in the first place.

So we built the thing that was missing. Hydrolysed liquid collagen, all three types, at doses that actually do something, cold processed so it is absorbed rather than passed straight through.

Nala is nine now. She sleeps through grass season.

Where it is actually made

We blend and bottle every batch in Melbourne, in a HACCP certified facility, and we third party test every run in Australia for purity and heavy metals.

We are not a white label drop-shipper. We are not "designed in Australia, made offshore". Blended here, bottled here, batch tested here, and every genuine bottle carries its Melbourne batch number on the base.

Every order is picked and packed by hand in Alexandria, Sydney and goes out the same day if you order before 2pm AEST. Melbourne and Sydney metro usually see it next day. Perth and the regions, three to four days.

It costs more to make it this way. It is also the only way we can tell you what is in the bottle without crossing our fingers.

  • Transparency

    You deserve to know exactly what you are giving your pet and why it works. Every dose is printed on the panel, the numbers on the page match the numbers on the label, and the batch number is on the base of the bottle.

  • Quality

    Wild caught marine collagen, no chicken, no grain, no fillers, no artificial colours. Amber glass because collagen peptides degrade in light. Third party tested in Australia, every run.

  • Empathy

    We are pet owners too. We know the 3am scratching, the cone in the boot, and the feeling of spending thousands and watching nothing change. That is why everything here starts with the problem, not the product.

    Our promise

    To always put your pet's health and your peace of mind first. To never cut corners. To never stop improving. And to make sure every wag, purr and playful leap lasts as long as we can make it.

    If it does not work for your animal, you do not pay for it. Sixty nights, money back, even if the bottle is empty.

      The questions people actually ask us

      public

      Are you actually Australian, or just an Australian looking website?

      Actually Australian. Furbos Pty Ltd, ABN 64 682 197 350, registered in Victoria, GST registered. Blended and bottled in Melbourne, shipped from Alexandria in Sydney. It is worth checking this on any pet supplement you buy. A lot of the "Australian" pet collagen advertised here ships from a third party warehouse overseas, which is why it takes three weeks and arrives with a customs sticker.

      The formula was built with Australian registered veterinarians, including Dr. Bernstein and Dr. Walsh, and refined with a Melbourne contract manufacturer over eleven batches before we sold a single bottle.

      Because there is one mechanism. A broken skin barrier is a broken skin barrier whether it belongs to a dog or a cat, and the difference between the two bottles is the flavour system, not the marketing. We would rather make two things properly than twelve things adequately.

      Yes. Email hello@Furbos.com.au and a person in Australia answers, in Australian hours, usually the same business day.
