Help feeding your pet raw food
A great starting point for a first time raw feeder comes in the form of a balanced, pre-ground, full meal.
FOR CANINES: You want to see muscle meat, organs and either ground bone or ground egg shell listed in the ingredients.
This is what we consider a “diet” recipe, as canines also benefit from 5-15% fiber in their meals as they are omnivores. The best fiber sources are leafy greens, squash vegetables and berries.
When a pre-ground meal also includes fruits and veggies, we consider this to be a “dinner” as it is closer to being fully balanced. ​
​
FOR FELINES: you are still looking for muscle meat, organs, and a source of calcium, but little to no fiber should be present (typically 3-5% at most).
Felines are obligate carnivores, meaning they absolutely must consume animal based protein and have almost no use for any form of fruits, vegetables, or grains.

​​Sure, pets can survive on dry kibble and a bowl full of water but we want your animals to thrive! On raw food, you will see your animal's energy increase, their coat will become thicker and more glossy, you will see less shedding, healthier teeth and gums, and they will produce less waste.
Plus, you are taking the preventative steps to lessen the chances of a chronic health issue!​
