Raw4 Paws Ingredients Guide

Fresh Meat

– Leaner cuts of Australian human grade meat is used. Free range meats are selected where possible. Each recipe only contains meat, bone and organs from the one protein source. All meat is sourced fresh only from Australian human consumption facilities. Turkey and chicken recipes contain ground bone but lamb beef and roo do not contain ground bone as these bones are too hard so calcium is added instead to balance these recipes. We do not use bone meal or bone powder in our recipes as these powders contain bones from mixed species but predominantly beef and as we are strict about single protein for allergy dogs we avoid any other bones
