Struggling to Find Natural Raw Dog Food in Ottawa?

Explore premium local options designed to support your dog’s health without compromise.

If you’ve been searching high and low for quality raw dog food that checks all the boxes—natural, local, nutritious, and safe—you’re not alone. For health-conscious dog owners in Ottawa and nearby communities, finding the right fit can be harder than it should be.

At Raw Fed and Furry, we understand the struggle. That’s why we’ve curated a lineup of all natural raw dog food options that make no compromises—on ingredients, sourcing, safety, or convenience.

This guide is your one-stop resource for understanding what makes natural raw feeding work, what to look for in a reliable supplier, and why more pet owners are choosing Raw Fed and Furry to lead the way.

Why Pet Owners Are Going Raw—and Natural

For many, raw feeding is more than just a trend. It’s a return to biologically appropriate nutrition—a way to nourish dogs in a form that’s closest to what nature intended.

Natural raw diets are often free from:

• Artificial preservatives

• Grains and fillers

• Overprocessed ingredients

• Synthetic additives
  

Instead, they’re built around:

• Whole meats and organs

• Ground bone

• Functional vegetables (like pumpkin or kelp)

• Real, recognizable nutrients
  

For dogs with allergies, chronic digestive issues, or skin problems, this approach can bring meaningful relief. And for healthy dogs? It can support better energy, coat shine, and long-term vitality.

What Makes a Raw Diet “Natural”?

It’s important to distinguish truly natural raw food from some of the mass-produced options out there. Not all raw pet food is created equal.

A genuinely natural raw dog food should:

• Be free from artificial colors, preservatives, or synthetic binders

• Use whole, ethically sourced animal proteins

• Have clear labeling with traceable ingredients

• Avoid unnecessary fortification (unless medically directed)
  

At Raw Fed and Furry, we stock brands that live up to this standard—like All Raw Dog Food, Smack, Canino, and other locally trusted names. We work directly with suppliers who meet Canadian health and safety regulations, so you can feed with confidence.

Sourcing Locally—Why It Matters

Many pet owners want to shop local, but still find themselves ordering raw food from big-box chains or out-of-province suppliers. The issue? Limited selection and inconsistent inventory in Ottawa.

Our solution is simple: bring quality raw food closer to home.

We work with Canadian suppliers like All Raw Dog Food, based in Valleyfield, Quebec—just a short drive from Ottawa. Their production follows strict MAPAQ regulations, ensuring every meal is crafted with food safety and nutritional precision in mind.

By sourcing locally, we’re able to:

• Reduce delivery times

• Keep stock fresher

• Support regional pet food producers

• Offer competitive prices without inflated shipping fees
  

And if you’re in the Russell, Embrun, Alexandria, or Hawkesbury area? We’ve got you covered with delivery options that work for your schedule.

Is Raw Dog Food Actually Safe?

This is one of the most common concerns—and it’s a fair one.

Yes, raw meat can carry bacteria like Salmonella or E. coli. But when sourced and handled properly, raw food can be just as safe as any other feeding method.

Our suppliers use:

• Flash freezing to lock in freshness and reduce bacterial growth

• Sanitary processing environments overseen by provincial inspection teams

• Vacuum-sealed packaging that minimizes freezer burn and contamination
  

And at home, the safety guidelines are straightforward:

• Thaw only what you need

• Store below 4°C (fridge) or -18°C (freezer)

• Use stainless steel or ceramic bowls

• Wash hands and utensils after handling
  

With these steps in place, the risks are no greater than preparing a meal in your own kitchen.

Making Raw Feeding Affordable

Let’s be honest: feeding raw can be more expensive than kibble.

But there are ways to make it work—without cutting corners.

At Raw Fed and Furry, we offer:

• Bulk pricing on popular formulas

• Mix-and-match bundles to suit your feeding schedule

• Rewards for repeat buyers

• Special discounts for breeders, rescues, and multi-dog households
  

We also carry a range of raw food products at different price points—from complete, pre-blended meals to DIY meats and bone options. You can choose what fits your budget and your dog’s diet.

Many of our clients even report that raw feeding ends up saving money long-term—with fewer vet visits, better skin and coat health, and less waste in the yard.
