Who is Bubeck?
Bubeck is a family-owned business that has been baking dog food for over 130 years. Instead of anonymous mass-produced goods, they craft artisanal dog food using real ingredients. This philosophy—craftsmanship over assembly-line production—has connected us from the very beginning.
On his own podcast, “Betreutes Füttern,” Bubeck talks with guests about what’s really good for dogs. Meike Köstring, founder of nacani, was a guest on an entertaining episode of the podcast.
What is the podcast episode with Meike about?
In Episode #44, two manufacturers face off: Bubeck, with its artisanal dog food, and nacani, with its handmade, food-grade CBD products. The common thread between them is the same: real ingredients instead of trendy labels.
In this episode, Meike clears up a few misunderstandings and takes you behind the scenes. Here's what you can expect:
- What CBD is—and what it isn't. Why it's clearly different from THC and won't get your dog "high." If you want to learn more, read our article "What Is CBD for Dogs?"
- How to Recognize Quality: How Good CBD Oil Differs from Bad CBD Oil, and Why Full-Spectrum Oil Is So Special.
- Slow Food for Dogs. Gently baked, gently dried—because good things take time.
- The Rocky Road. Just how challenging licensing requirements, advertising bans, and cease-and-desist letters really are for a small manufacturer.
Why Bubeck and nacani are such a good fit
Because both brands prefer to invest time rather than take shortcuts. The story of nacani begins with a dog: Meike’s first Ridgeback, a male named Henri, is the reason nacani exists today. As a true “Monday litter,” he had a few issues that Meike set out to solve herself. That quest led to the creation of the small workshop in Grafing, near Munich.
“Craftsmanship over mass production, genuine materials over trendy labels.”
Both brands share this core philosophy. That’s exactly what makes this conversation so wonderful: two brands that are on the same page when it comes to care and honest ingredients.
