As a local family run business we love nothing more than welcoming dogs and their humans to our stores in Cam and Thornbury to share our enthusiasm and expertise on all things fresh, raw and healthy for dogs.
But if you need to access helpful information from anywhere, the Bark Raw Info Zone is right here.
Natural, nutrient-rich foods promote itch-free skin and a glossy, well-conditioned coat.
A balanced raw diet supports healthy muscle tone, ideal weight, and strong bones and joints, keeping your pup active and agile.
Chewing on raw food naturally cleans teeth, reduces plaque, and freshens breath, leading to fewer dental issues.
Raw feeding is easier on the gut, resulting in better nutrient absorption, less bloating, and firmer, smaller stools.
The right nutrition helps regulate energy levels and temperament, reducing hyperactivity or sluggishness.
A stronger immune system, healthier weight, and better dental health mean fewer health problems – and lower vet bills!
Dogs are carnivores and are physically built to eat meat. While dry, processed dog food may be convenient for humans, it is not the best diet for dogs. The right nutrition will ensure your dog grows healthy, strong and happy. A poor diet can lead to health issues and illness.
A raw dog food diet will improve your dog’s coat, skin and dental hygiene, help maintain a healthy weight, reduce inflammation, and give them a balanced gut microbiome.

A straight switch or a slow switch? There is much debate about which approach works best. Some dogs will be fine with a straight switch, but we suggest starting slowly to allow your dog’s gut to acclimatise.
Begin by mixing a small amount of raw food with your dog’s current diet and gradually increase the amount of raw food over a week or two.

Got questions about your dog’s diet, health, or behaviour? Pop into our store for a friendly chat – we’d love to hear about your pup and help if we can. For specialist guidance, we work closely with and highly recommend Dog Nutrition Specialist, Dr. Conor Brady.
With online training, 1-2-1 consultations, Conor has a brilliant book packed with expert insights, he’s a reliable, highly qualified, internationally respected, industry leader and a go-to source for all things canine nutrition.
A general rule of thumb is to feed your dog 2–3% of their body weight in raw food per day.
However, all dogs are different, and the amount of raw feed they need will depend on their age (for example, puppies need to be fed more), breed, activity level, and individual nutritional needs.

Raw dog food is made from higher quality, natural ingredients that are far healthier for your dog than standard kibble, so it is generally more expensive than processed or dried dog foods. But it’s worth it!
The good news is that it’s possible to keep costs down and provide a healthy, raw dog food diet. We stock brands for all budgets and offer bundle deals too!

Looking for top-quality raw dog food and more? While you can’t order online just yet, you can explore our full range of premium raw meals, natural treats, and essential pet products right here on our website.
But why stop there? Bring your pup and visit us in-store to see (and sniff!) everything we have to offer. Our team is ready to help you choose the perfect diet, and trust us – your dog won’t want to miss out on the fun!
Yes, absolutely. The best puppy food is raw, species-appropriate meat and bone. You can start your puppy on raw food once they’re weaned, at about three to four weeks of age. We recommend starting with plain, raw, boneless, white minces such as chicken, turkey, or fish.
By about four to six weeks, your puppy can graduate to red minces that contain ground bone. Most breeds can safely eat meat on the bone by the time they’re six weeks old.
It is not necessary to mix dry dog food with raw—the best diet for a dog is fresh or raw dog food alone—but a dog will be able to digest both. In fact, when people switch their dogs from kibble to a raw food diet, we advise mixing the two to start with.
For a dog to gain the maximum health benefits from a raw dog food diet, those less-than-nutritious ingredients found in kibble, such as wheat, ideally must be cut out.
