It was a pretty snowy weekend here in Ontario! Who else enjoyed a good winter hike? Meet Bella, an 11 year old Boxer lab mix. Bella has been eating a raw food diet for 9 years. Can you feed raw food to a senior dog? The answer is simple, yes! As we age, our bodies do not perform as efficiently. Our immune system weakens, our joints stiffen, our metabolism slows, dental issues develop, and the list continues. The senior pets in our lives often experience the same symptoms of a...ging. Typically, a pet is considered senior when it enters the last third of its life expectancy. Many times, senior pets that have been fed a processed diet, experience greater symptoms of aging. And while many owners believe a diet change late in life is too taxing for our senior pets, it is never too late to experience the benefits of raw! Check out our blog for more information on raw feeding, and senior pets. Here is the link: https://boldraw.com/blog/ See more

Remembrance Day November 11th is a day to remember our fallen soldiers. In honouring the soldiers that fought for our freedom, we also remember the animals that stood courageously by their side. From horses, to dogs, to animals of flight, our furry companions have played an important role in keeping our soldiers safe. From the bottom of our hearts, we want to thank the men and women who fought for our country and those continuing to do so.

What is your dog’s poop telling you? Believe it or not your dog’s stool can tell you a lot about their overall health and wellness. Raw fed poops are entirely different from kibble fed poops. While large, brown, and smelly deposits across the lawn are what many pet owners consider normal, this is a thing of the past when feeding raw. Generally speaking, raw fed dogs and cats have bowel movements that consist of small and firm nuggets. This drastic change can be explained by the lack of unnecessary carbohydrates(potatoes and grains) that we often see in kibble, combined with the increased digestibility of raw. This means your dog or cat is actually thoroughly digesting what he or she is eating, versus excreting all the filler. The small, firm nuggets are easy to pickup and have little odour, another awesome benefit to feeding raw!

#FactFriday Did you know that a cat’s tongue contains multiple backward facing hooks? These hooks are called filiform papillae This is why your cat’s tongue has a rough texture, these rough textured tongues can lick meat clean from the bone.

Green Tripe: But it doesn’t look that colour? One of the most common questions/comments that we come across is the actual color of tripe. It’s an expected, and quite valid, question given the that the name is Green Tripe. But is it really green? The answer is actually NO. Green Tripe, the smelliest of the smelly foods, actually comes in a variety of colors ranging from a beige/light brown, to grey, to browns, and even black. The term ‘green’ actually comes from a reference...Continue reading

#TipTuesday What's for dinner? Are you considering switching your pet to a raw food diet? Here are some helpful transitioning TIPS!... If you’ve decided to switch your pet to a raw food diet, then you’re probably in one of two situations: 1) You have a new puppy or kitten, and you want to get them started off on the right paw! 2) You have an older dog or cat, and you want to transition them from kibble to raw. If your pet is healthy and has no digestive issues, then you can make an immediate switch. Go directly from a kibble meal to a raw food meal. Then monitor your pet’s weight and digestion to see if changes are necessary. We recommend that you start with Bold Turkey/Mega Turkey as it is low fat and the easiest to digest. If your pet has digestive issues, we recommend fasting for 24 hours before introducing raw. Once the fasting period is over, you can switch to an entirely raw diet. If you are new to raw feeding, we recommend feeding the daily recommended amount in smaller meals throughout the day. For the first week, instead of feeding 2 meals a day, we recommended 3-4 small meals. We always recommend that you start with Bold Turkey/Mega Turkey for the first week. If your pet seems to be enjoying the raw food, then you can go to other proteins. For optimal health, it’s best to rotate your proteins (meats), rather than always feeding them the same thing.

With Thanksgiving just around the corner, let’s talk TURKEY Turkey is an excellent protein choice for pets transitioning to raw, as it is very lean and easy to digest.
