Why Raw? Fueling Dogs the Way Nature Intended

At Red Dogs & Co., we believe that our dogs deserve more than kibble. They deserve nutrition that mirrors what nature intended—fresh, whole, raw ingredients that support their health from the inside out.

Raw feeding isn’t just a trend. It’s a return to what dogs are biologically designed to eat.


🐾 What is Raw Feeding?

Raw feeding is the practice of feeding dogs a diet made up of uncooked meat, bones, organs, and sometimes vegetables or supplements. This approach mimics what dogs’ wild ancestors consumed—free from fillers, preservatives, and overly processed ingredients.

A well-balanced raw diet typically includes:

  • Muscle meat (beef, chicken, turkey, etc.)

  • Raw meaty bones (for calcium and dental health)

  • Organ meats (rich in vitamins and minerals)

  • Supplements (like omega oils or probiotics)


🌿 The Benefits of Raw

Many pet parents who switch to raw notice life-changing improvements in their dogs, including:

  • Healthier skin and a shinier coat
  • Smaller, firmer, less smelly stools
  • Improved digestion and fewer allergies
  • Increased energy and vitality
  • Cleaner teeth and fresher breath
  • Balanced weight and muscle tone

🧬 Why It Works: A Dog’s Ancestral Blueprint

Dogs may be domesticated, but their digestive systems haven’t changed much from their wild ancestors. Their bodies are made to process raw meat, not grains and fillers. A raw diet honors their biology, giving them the fuel they need to thrive—not just survive.


🛑 Isn’t Raw Dangerous?

When done properly, raw feeding is safe, nutritious, and beneficial. At Red Dogs & Co., we source from trusted suppliers, follow strict food safety standards, and offer guidance to help you feed with confidence. We do the hard work so you can focus on what matters—your dog’s wellbeing.
