By choosing foods from this category, you're pretty much assured that your dog isn't missing anything. There are many good reasons why one would want to feed raw food that has been formulated to meet the nutritional level of AAFCO for all life stages: sometimes our allergy dogs are very limited as to which proteins they can tolerate so we want a little extra "insurance" in the diet. Sometimes our dogs become fixated on certain proteins and refuse all others so again, we want that "insurance." Sometimes we are crazy busy and don't have time to figure out a prey model type of diet. And sometimes when we are new to feeding a raw diet for dogs (or cats) we want to start the easiest way possible until we feel more comfortable adding other foods.

What's AAFCO by the way AAFCO is the Association of American Feed Control Officials. Basically, they're the guys who have the last word when it comes to the minimum nutrients relative to what goes into pet food. When you hear the phrase "complete and balanced," think AAFCO. In essence, it's a different way of feeding. Confused? Email us. We're happy to help.

Raw foods consisting of meat, bones, organs and produce form the mainstay of many dogs' diets. When choosing any commercial raw food products, it's imperative to assess the quality of the ingredients and the integrity of the manufacturer. Any raw diet should only ever consist of USDA approved food sources and it should be processed in a USDA inspected facility. Preferably, the food should also be hormone free, antibiotic free and naturally fed (vegetarian fed).

We here at K9 Raw Diet have done the work for you! With hormone-free, antibiotic free, vegetarian fed proteins and organic produce, Primal Pet Food is a truly outstanding group of products. And with Bravo's all natural proteins and grade A washed veg, you are getting the same outstanding food that you could produce at home if you ground all the ingredients together yourself. We are also happy to bring you Smallbatch which is made with entirely free range proteins and certified organic produce. Quality is the keynote of the raw food products we choose for our own dogs and cats and ethically, those quality products are the only items we can pay forward to you.

Primal Pet Food is available in convenient 1 oz nuggets (3# package - special order), 8 oz patties (4# package) and 2# tubes. 5# tubes available by special order (allow 1 week).

This is one of our most favourite categories of all!  K9 Raw Diet absolutely loves products with only raw meat, bones and organs.  Oh why you may ask?  Because they are oh so biologically appropriate and versatile!  With all natural proteins that are hormone free, antibiotic free and naturally fed, the quality is unsurpassed.  Feed these products on their own, mix them with your own veg or produce from home (leftovers absolutely count), use them as part of a varied raw food diet and use them any time you like!  With organ meat already included in the mix, there's no fretting over whether your pet is getting his 10% organ meat in the overall diet.  With products from this category, the work is done for you.  Perfect for cats and dogs alike (especially the allergy pets as there are some wonderful novel proteins here).

Bravo manufactures some products that are only meat and bones.  Let's face it: some dogs and cats are mighty picky eaters and absolutely refuse to eat raw organ meat.  For those dogs, we highly recommend doing the best you can and supplementing the diet with either cooked organ meats which you can purchase from your local supermarket, and providing various types of liver treats on a daily basis.  Trust us, your dog isn't going to argue with that logic!  With some outstanding novel protein sources in this category, your raw food diet will be a piece of cake for any allergy dog as well as adding variety into any type of raw diet.

Don't want the bones? Just want the meat? Perhaps your dog needs a novel protein source for an elimination diet? These products provide a terrific solution and as always, they are USDA inspected and approved.  They are also ideal for adding into the Honest Kitchen products, especially Preference, as well as Urban Wolf. And hey, they're great to feed alone too!

Bravo organ blends are wonderful and both dogs and cats (yes, cats) go nuts for this stuff. The Bravo organ (offal) blends are hot items and are definitely one of the most favoured foods amongst many pets. You can use the organ blends in addition to the raw foods with ground meat and bones, you can add a little bit into any other raw pet food, you can add it to boneless meats and you can even add some of the organ blends any time you feel your dog might need a little extra organ meat in his diet. They're a great way to ensure your pet is getting his 10% organ meat into the diet.  These go down extremely well!

These foods are green in colour - quite literally! Other than that, they have nothing in common. It's not easy being green. Go fish.

Items supplied by Bravo can be special ordered just for you! This includes anything that is manufactured by Bravo! Raw Diet (www.bravorawdiet.com) including whole bones. Items ordered especially for you generally arrive in approximately 1 - 3 weeks depending on the item(s) ordered.

Some of our bones are on hand and in-house, others are in cold storage. To ensure that you are able to receive the bones you wish at the time you wish, plan ahead when making your order.
