Discover locally sourced, raw pet nutrition that supports your dog’s health without synthetic fillers.
Finding the right dog food shouldn’t feel like a compromise between convenience, nutrition, and trust. Yet, for many pet owners in Ottawa, that’s exactly what it becomes. Whether you’ve walked the aisles of big-box stores or scrolled endlessly through generic pet food brands online, the challenge remains the same: most options feel too processed, too vague, or too far from your values.
 
At Raw Fed and Furry, we get it—and we believe there’s a better way to feed your pet.

Why So Many Ottawa Pet Owners Are Rethinking Dog Food
If you’ve ever picked up a bag of kibble and found yourself Googling half the ingredients, you’re not alone. Pet parents are becoming more informed and more intentional about how they feed their furry family members. This shift is particularly strong in Ottawa, where health-conscious, eco-aware households are looking for alternatives to mass-produced pet food.
 
Here are just a few of the reasons they’re making the switch:
 
- 
Ingredient transparency is lacking in many commercial foods 
 
- 
Additives and fillers may cause digestive or skin issues 
 
- 
Ethical sourcing isn’t always a priority for large manufacturers 
 
- 
Personalization is hard to come by with “one-size-fits-all” formulas 
 
These concerns aren’t trends—they’re reflections of a deeper understanding that what goes into your dog’s bowl affects everything from their energy to their immune system.

What Is Raw Feeding and Why Does It Matter?
Raw feeding, sometimes called “biologically appropriate feeding,” focuses on giving your dog a diet that mimics what their ancestors would have eaten in the wild. Think raw muscle meat, organ meat, bones, and natural plant-based nutrients.
 
The potential benefits include:
 
- 
Shinier coats and healthier skin 
- 
Improved digestion 
- 
More consistent energy levels 
- 
Smaller, less odorous stools 
- 
Better dental health 
 
More Ottawa pet owners are learning that raw diets can help address chronic issues that kibble just can’t fix. While not a cure-all, raw feeding often becomes the foundation for lasting wellness.

Navigating Dog Food Options in Ottawa: What to Watch Out For
If you’ve been shopping around for alternatives, here are some common red flags we’ve seen in the local market:
 
- 
Products labeled “natural” but containing synthetic additives 
 
- 
Imported brands with limited transparency 
 
- 
Frozen food with inconsistent storage or thawing instructions 
 
- 
No customer education or after-purchase support 
 
At Raw Fed and Furry, we believe that premium dog food should come with premium support. That means clear labels, real advice, and open doors—whether online or in person at our Orleans shop.
