Nova Zeal x Houndberry: The Wonky Scruffle Ball Collaboration!
We are very excited to announce our latest collaboration with Houndberry, a partnership that celebrates sustainability, creativity and canine wellbeing.
Together with Catherine, the founder of Houndberry and proud dachshund mum to two adorable sausage dogs, we have created something truly special: three brand-new “Wonky” Scruffle Balls, each inspired by Houndberry’s main treat ranges: Calm, Sensitive Tummies and Joint Support.
Why Houndberry?
Like us, Catherine and her dachshunds share a passion for dogs’ health, happiness and the planet. Houndberry’s natural, sustainable treats are made from recognisable, human-grade ingredients, packed with wonky fruits and vegetables to help reduce food waste and lower your pup’s pawprint on the planet.
Every Houndberry recipe is hypoallergenic, grain-free and free from nasties, making them a perfect fit for our Nova Zeal enrichment toys. It is a partnership rooted in shared values: sustainability, wellbeing and bringing a little joy to every wagging tail.
The Wonky Scruffle Ball: A Twist on a Classic
Our new Wonky Scruffle Balls are the playful counterpart to the traditional Snuffle Ball, designed with a quirky twist. Using Houndberry’s brand colours, we have hand-crafted three exclusive styles, each representing one of their signature treat lines:
🩵 Calm – soothing tones inspired by relaxation and balance
💛 Sensitive Tummies – gentle yellows reflecting care and comfort
🩷 Joint Support – warm pink hues symbolising strength and vitality
Each Scruffle Ball is made from high-quality fleece and built for interactive play and sensory enrichment, making it the perfect companion for Houndberry’s new tiny training-sized treats, cooked up by Catherine herself and perfectly sized for hiding within your Wonky Ball.
A Match Made in Enrichment Heaven
By combining Nova Zeal’s commitment to creative dog enrichment with Houndberry’s nutritious, eco-conscious treats, we are offering something truly unique: a fun, planet-friendly way to keep your dog’s brain busy and belly happy.
Whether your pup needs to unwind with Calm, enjoy gentle support for Sensitive Tummies, or strengthen with Joint Support, our collaboration brings together play, purpose and paw-sitivity in every wag and sniff.
Coming Soon!
