Enjoy the New Year with this dog friendly 'osechi-ryori'

In Japan the New Year celebrations put an emphasis on spending time with family. For those of us with dogs, that means sharing that special moment with our fur babies too – and what better way is there to get them excited about 2022 than with their very own osechi-ryori set.

A traditional part of the Japanese new year, osechi-ryori is a selection of dishes all put together in an elaborately decorated stacked bento box. Each dish holds a special meaning and is selected carefully to bring in luck to the consumer in the new year. For an in depth introduction to osechi-ryori and the meaning of each dish check out this article we wrote previously.

Produced by With Pet Family Co – the company that operates the pet friendly yakiniku restaurants Ushisuke in Yokohama and Tokyo – this dog-friendly osechi-ryori set has everything a dog needs and wants.

Roast beef, sweet potatoes and datemaki-style fish cake can be found inside the container resembling a traditional osechi-ryori bento box. A lot of thought and research has gone into the choices of ingredients, with consideration and priority given to maintaining dog immunity and improving health. An additional positive of the set, is that the partitions between each dish slow down speedy eaters and prevent overeating.
