FAQs
We responsibly source all of our proteins from USDA wholesalers (except rabbit and green tripe). These human grade wholesalers stock your local grocery stores and favorite restaurants. Our fruits and veggies are purchased weekly at our local HEB and chopped up fresh, we do not mix in a celery, apple or carrot powders. **All ingredients and supplements are individually measured and weighed for their consistent nutrient values, we do not use feed-grade synthetic vitamin packs. The sourcing and bioavailability of all of our ingredients is and has always been very important.
Though we're not organic, our poultry, beef, pork and lamb are humanely raised and without antibiotics or hormones. Our local rabbits are hand raised and our beef green tripe is grass fed. An organic product would demand a higher price point for our customers, and Go Raw's goal from the beginning was to create an affordable quality raw fit for all doggies.
Our grass fed beef green tripe is a unique nutritional hero, it's the stomach lining of a cow. Really. Green tripe is full of powerful live enzymes and probiotics, essential for excellent gut health, efficient digestion and immune function. Green tripe is included in every dual protein raw formula we make. In five years, we have not found another raw company who sources this powerhouse ingredient for their raw formulas.
MSM is produced by machines that squeeze cacasses and frames under extreme pressure to remove any leftover meat and sinew to use as byproducts in pet food. Many fresh pet food companies use this within their formulas because it's cheap. How can you tell? Formulas with MSM have an ultra-fine mushy texture, are pale in color, and often have a high calcium content that creates chalky stools for your dogs. EEW. MSM is never used in any of Go Raw's formulas.
HPP is a preservation method that guarantees shelf life. Go Raw does not use HPP because we source all of our proteins through USDA inspected facilities. Our quality ingredients are ground up, measured, mixed, bagged and frozen for your dog without adding any chemicals or preservatives. Go Raw makes the best raw dog food every week with faithful strong hands, and no fancy equipment is necessary.

It's the Association of American Feed Control Officials, an independent organization that guides the state, federal, and international feed regulators with ingredient definitions, label standards and laboratory standards for the United States. AAFCO developed nutrient profiles to establish minimum and some maximum nutrient values for dog and cat food. Go Raw Pet Food adheres to the nutritional guidelines that AAFCO has set in place for complete and balanced nutrition.
We recommend choosing a protein that your dog is already familiar with in his/her current bowl. Switch proteins as you'd like after transitioning and feeding Go Raw for at least a few weeks. Variety within your dog's diet is very beneficial for their long term health and vitality. Our turkey & beef or our lamb & chicken are popular with newbies.
