Returns & Refunds
What do I do if I receive a damaged or incorrect items?
Before we can replace or refund an item we will ask for the item to be returned back to us by the cheapest means possible. We may request that you return the item back to us by recorded delivery in the post or we may arrange for the item to be collected by our carrier, the item(s) must be packed as received to avoid any possible damage. Should we request you to return the item back to us, please enclose within the package a copy of the receipt given by the post office and we will reimburse you for this charge. Please contact us to arrange collection.
If you have accepted the parcel before realising it was damaged, or the parcel has been left in a safe place when you were not around to inspect it, then we ask you take a picture of the damaged items and contact us as soon as possible so we can take the necessary action and resend an item or refund you accordingly.
You will not be responsible for the cost of the return of the item or the cost of replacing the goods in the case of damaged / incorrect items. However we will be unable to accept the return of any items not damaged or incorrect within the same package. Should you wish to return these back to us you must arrange for them to be returned as per our terms and conditions below.

Free Shipping
How does the free shipping policy work?
Standard shipping on orders over $39 is FREE, so you can order as much as you want without paying any extra. Free shipping applies for all rural deliveries as well.
Standard shipping is defined as:
1. Next working day delivery for all North Island addresses.
2. Two working day delivery for all South Island addresses.
Orders of values less than a total of $39.00 do incur shipping costs and will be noted on your checkout bill.
There are a couple more delivery options that you need to be aware of as we will charge extra for these items:
Signature Required – $2.00 per shipment
Our courier drivers will leave the packages at your door step or somewhere secure that you have requested in the checkout process. If you would prefer to sign for the package, tick the relevant option in the checkout. High value orders will include this option anyway.
Saturday Delivery – $8.40 per shipment
If you order an item before 3pm on a Friday, you have the option to get it delivered that Saturday. Saturday delivery is unfortunately not available in all areas.
Loyalty Cards
How does the Zeal Loyalty Card scheme work?
Our Buy 10 get 1 free Loyalty Card scheme only applies to our Zeal Natural Soft Dry Dog Food 3kg and 12kg purchases.
When you make your FIRST Natural Soft Dry Dog Food purchase, we will automatically create a Loyalty Card for you using your Name, Contact Number, Shipping Address, E-mail Address, and Purchase Size (3kg or 12kg), taken from your order details.
For every purchase you make, we will “stamp” your card with the date of purchase and variant purchased (Beef Risotto, Lamb Risotto, Chicken Risotto, Seafood Risotto, or Venison Risotto). For every 10 bags purchased, we will automatically send out a free 11th bag (equal to the size of your smallest purchase) with your qualifying order. You can find your Loyalty Card stamp number on the Packing Slip included in your physical order.
If you purchase both 3kg and 12kg bags, we will make separate cards for each size so that you get the best value from this Loyalty scheme! If you prefer to have both 3kg and 12kg on the same Loyalty Card (free 11th bag will be 3kg only) please let us know.
If you are purchasing under a different name for the same dog/Loyalty Card, please let us know, otherwise a new Loyalty Card may be created.
Terms and Conditions:
This loyalty card is to be used for Zeal Natural Soft Dry Dog Food purchases only. Buy any 10 bags of dog food, and receive an 11th bag equal to the size of your smallest purchase, free. Terms and Conditions may be changed by The Natural Pet Treat Company Ltd at its discretion. This loyalty card scheme may be cancelled by The Natural Pet Treat Company Ltd at any time without recourse to compensation.
