Frequently Asked Questions

What is raw dog and cat nutrition?

Raw nutrition is a biologically appropriate way of feeding pets using whole, minimally processed ingredients such as muscle meat, organs, and bone. It is designed to mirror what dogs and cats are naturally meant to eat and provides nutrients in their most natural form.

Is raw feeding safe for dogs and cats?

Yes. When handled and stored properly, raw feeding is a safe and appropriate option for dogs and cats. We follow strict handling practices and use USDA-inspected ingredients. As with any raw food, proper hygiene—such as handwashing and surface cleaning—is important.

How do I transition my pet to raw nutrition?

We recommend a gradual transition over 7–10 days. Start by replacing a small portion of your pet’s current food with raw nutrition and slowly increase the amount each day. This allows your pet’s digestive system to adjust comfortably.

How much should I feed my pet?

Feeding amounts are based on your pet’s ideal body weight, age, and activity level. Feeding guidelines are provided on each product label and on the product page. Portions may need to be adjusted depending on your pet’s individual needs.

Do your recipes meet nutritional standards?

Yes. Our recipes are formulated to be complete and balanced for their intended life stage and align with AAFCO nutritional guidelines. We use muscle meat, organs, and bone to naturally provide essential nutrients without synthetic fillers.

Do you use fillers, grains, or artificial additives?

No. We do not use fillers, grains, artificial preservatives, or synthetic additives. Our focus is on simple, whole ingredients that pets recognize and utilize efficiently.

How should raw food be stored and handled?

Raw nutrition should be kept frozen until ready to use. Thaw in the refrigerator and use within 2–3 days once thawed. Do not refreeze once fully thawed. Always wash hands, bowls, and preparation surfaces after handling.

Do you ship frozen products?

Yes. Frozen raw nutrition ships in insulated packaging with ice packs to maintain temperature. Orders ship Mondays and Tuesdays to ensure freshness during transit.

Do you offer local pickup or delivery?

Yes. Local pickup and delivery options are available in select areas. Available options will be shown at checkout.
