That's why Tim & Leon Besserli
Our Mission
The best for your dog while protecting the environment.
Our mission at Tim&Leon is to bring the latest innovations to your bowl! To achieve this, we use alternative protein sources as healthy and sustainable alternatives to conventional feed production. Our first snack—the Besserli—for example, is made with naturally fermented protein.
The better treat = Besserli
- Innovative protein: With fermented protein – highly digestible, nutrient-rich and natural.
- For every adventure: Whether training or a snack in between – crispy, delicious and motivating.
- Healthy & well-tolerated: easily digestible, prebiotic and free from sugar, fillers or artificial additives.
- Thinking sustainably: Up to 95% lower CO₂ footprint than meat, 2-3 times more sustainable than plant proteins.
- Made with transparency: Clear list of ingredients, traceable origin, honest communication.
Besserli - The better treat
Therefore fermented protein
Naturally fermented
Our fermented protein is produced naturally and is of extremely high quality and nutrient density.
Suitable for sensitive dogs
Since the fermented protein is a new protein source, dogs with allergies and sensitive skin can eat it without any concerns.
Particularly sustainable
Compared to meat production and vegan proteins, the manufacturing process is significantly more sustainable. So, it's good for both humans and animals!

FAQ about our treats
What makes Tim&Leon special?
Tim&leon is Europe's first pet food startup that utilizes the potential of alternative protein sources at the core of all its products. This allows us to offer high-quality and healthy food that also tastes great and is kind to our planet!
Where are Tim&Leon products manufactured?
Our products are manufactured in Germany by experienced partners who share our values of quality, transparency and sustainability.
Short production routes allow us to keep our supply chains efficient – thus protecting the environment and conserving resources.
What is naturally fermented protein?
Naturally fermented protein is obtained through the fermentation of natural microorganisms. This process produces a highly digestible, protein-rich biomass, entirely without animal ingredients and with significantly lower resource consumption.
This process is nothing new: Nature has been using fermentation for millions of years – just like in the production of yogurt, sourdough or kombucha.
We use this principle specifically to obtain a high-quality, easily digestible and particularly pure protein.
The result is our fermented protein, which:
- over 90% digestible,
- free from common allergens and irritants,
- and rich in essential amino acids and natural B vitamins.
Because it is not derived from animal or plant raw materials, this protein is particularly gentle on sensitive dogs and is ideally suited for a conscious, sustainable diet.
Fermentation also brings clear benefits for our planet:
Compared to meat production, fermented protein saves up to 95% water and land and causes significantly fewer CO₂ emissions – with better protein quality.
This creates a protein that is healthy for your dog and better for the environment – innovative, natural and responsible.
Is fermented protein safe and tested?
Yes, our protein is produced in Germany under strictly controlled conditions and is regularly tested by independent laboratories.
It meets all EU safety and feed standards.
How big are the Besserlis?
The Besserli is a medium-sized snack with a diameter of about 10 mm.
It is suitable for almost all dog breeds – small enough to chew, large enough for a real snacking experience.
Is Besserli suitable for all dogs?
Besserli is suitable for dogs of all breeds and ages. Thanks to its high-quality composition and easily digestible protein, it is also well tolerated by dogs with sensitive digestion.
Besserli is not suitable for puppies under four months old due to its crunchy texture.
How often can I feed the baby?
Besserli is intended as a snack or reward between meals.
The exact amount depends on your dog's size, weight, and activity level – as a guideline: max. 10% of the daily food ration.
Fresh drinking water should always be available.
When will the Besserli be available for me?
The Besserli is currently available in a limited pre-sale phase.
Those who order now will secure one of the first packages before the official launch.
The regular sales launch is planned for January 2026.
Are there any subscription or bundle offers?
Yes, you can also order Besserli as a convenient subscription – this way you regularly save 20% and always have a supply on hand. You can configure the delivery interval and quantity individually to suit your needs!
Alternatively, we offer mixed and sampler packs to test different varieties.
