Hi Megan,
Apologies you have had this experience, we are in the process of moving from DHL to a central UK warehouse and 3rd party fulfilment centre that will guarantee next day delivery. The move is expected to be complete this week. However in the meantime, can you please email anthony@macahl.com so we can track your order and send you immediate replacement.
Best regards
Anthony

Very good product

A very good rehydration drink. Have been giving it to my 14 year old dog, going on 5 years now.
They absolutely thrive on it, especially when poorly.
Prevents mine from drinking water excessively as it supports their kidney health, with electrolytes.

I cant recommend it highly enough, as it has been supporting my older dogs health for many years now. I
genuinely believe this stuff has helped prolong their quality of life.

I did have some delivery issues, on my recent order and was left quite frustrated with the overall timeframe involved.
Fortunately my order arrived today (Thank you Anthony)
I was also reassured that plans were in place to prevent such delays happening again in future.

And that's all I can ask for. Good customer service and a liquid elixir my dog loves

We’re very sorry to hear this and truly appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. As a family business, we greatly value your support and the trust you’ve placed in Oralade over the years, especially knowing it has helped your dog.

Customer satisfaction is essential to us, and we would really welcome the opportunity to investigate what happened and resolve any issues for you. Oralade has, for many years, come with a 100% satisfaction guarantee, and that’s something we genuinely stand by. If you’re not completely happy, we would love the chance to offer a replacement product or a full refund.

We’re also very concerned to hear that your contact wasn’t handled as quickly as it should have been. This isn’t the level of service we aim to provide, and we will be reviewing this internally to understand what went wrong and how we can improve.

If you’re willing, please contact me directly at anthony@macahl.com

Excellent product AND customer service

This is very much a two-pronged review for Oralade.

Firstly, this is my second or third time ordering directly from the company, as the product can be incredibly difficult to source elsewhere. My previous delivery had some issues with DHL—poor communication and a late arrival—but it was manageable. This time, however, the delivery experience was genuinely awful.

I emailed Oralade late on Monday evening and was genuinely surprised to receive what felt like a real-time response from the Managing Director himself. There were no excuses, no platitudes—just a sincere apology and a shared sense of frustration with DHL. Anthony clearly explained how Oralade are addressing these delivery issues (I’m very much looking forward to them switching courier) and immediately arranged replacement items.

This is what excellent customer service looks like: acknowledge the problem and resolve it promptly. Thank you.

The second part of my review is about the product itself. My cat has CKD, and my vet recommended Oralade Pink to support her diet and hydration. Since introducing it, I’ve seen a huge difference. She drinks far less plain water than she used to, yet her hydration has improved so much that her CKD levels have stabilised.

The biggest miracle of all? She actually loves it. This is a cat who can detect anything even vaguely resembling “medicine” from 100 paces and will flatly refuse it. Yet she actively asks for Oralade and would happily drink it all day if I let her.

On both fronts—outstanding product quality and genuinely exceptional customer service—Oralade are superb!

Customer Service all but non-existent

My poor pup is suffering at the moment with illness and the vet recommended this product. Tried some from the local vet and dog liked it so then I thought I would order a batch from Oralade themselves. Item appeared to be dispatched quickly and ever since DHL can't make up their minds if they have it or not and then says they will deliver on the next working day and don't. Fine, I get it, this is a courier issue - however, Oralade offer you a number to call which constantly goes to voicemail. You leave a voicemail and no one calls you back. DHL keep sending me to Oralade and Oralade won't respond. I would order from elsewhere as this outfit appear to be amateur at best. Never again.

Great product but DHL is poor delivery company.

The product is great... However I think your choice of delivery company is poor. From your email communications it seems you employ either a 24 hour or a 48 hour service. However from the time I receive an email from DHL till the time I actually receive the item is more like 4 or 5 days. It happens every time I order from oralade and on one occasion one of the bottles had a leak which I put down to the the long time it must be kicking around in their possession.

Oralade

Oralade is good to have in the cupboard when your dog feels poorly. My dog suffers from pancreatitis and this is great to give her if she has been sick. It's great to have as ice cubes in the freezer too
