Our Ingredients

FRESH & NATURAL

At Raw Cut, we produce food that provides complete and balanced nourishment to dogs. We only use responsibly sourced meat from farm raised animals that are approved for human consumption. We only work with suppliers who share our vision of food system sustainability and are committed to animal welfare.

Our beliefs are based on what dogs would eat in nature which have not changed from their ancestors (The Wolf). We believe our companion dogs gain the most benefit from a raw balanced diet they can digest efficiently when delivered in a fresh raw meat form, striking the right balance between muscle meat, organs and bones, between vegetables, unlocked grains and meat juice.

PROCESSED NATURALLY

Ingredients processed unheated to preserve the vitamins and enzymes avoiding saturating the fats, Then, the freezing process favored by Raw Cut makes it possible to avoid:

  • Astronomical quantities of vitamins to prevent fats from becoming rancid.
  • Taste enhancers.
  • Coloring agents.
  • Synthetic thickeners.

PERFECT BALANCE IN AMINO ACIDS

Fats and proteins come from fresh chicken, beef and lamb meat. Raw Cut therefore needs a little protein to obtain a perfect balance in amino acids.

Puppy or adult dog: the ideal balance is in amino acids. Ten amino acids are essential for the adult dog. A young dog needs more Arginine and Histidine, or 12 amino acids during its growing phase. In nature and in natural dog food, this is not a problem, because fresh meat contains all the amino acids in the right proportion. At least, if there is a good balance between muscle meat and organs, as in Raw Cut.

The amino acids will also be kept intact in non-heated processed foods, as is the case with Raw Cut unlike dry food for dogs. Fats from poultry provide more unsaturated essential fatty acids.

VIRTUAL DISAPPEARANCE OF DIGESTIVE PROBLEMS

Raw Cut provides always the same quality and same proportions of carbohydrates and raw fibers for each product. As a result, digestive problems are virtually excluded. The natural meat juices in Raw Cut offer two major advantages, namely they:

  • Provide the most digestible iron
  • Make the intake of huge quantities of water superfluous. because drinking too much dilutes the gastric acid, and this does not benefit digestion.
