So the farther down the rabbit hole you go with eating clean and smart, the more your eyes are opened. One thing that has come to us in the past few months is, "What should our pets be eating?" Well they should basically be eating a raw version of paleo it turns out. Or Biologically Appropriate Raw Food. I'll let you fill out the horrible acronym there. Dogs in particular are omnivores with a lean towards carnivore. We have been feeding our dog raw food for a couple months and the results are astounding. Much less itchy skin, beautiful coat, healthy digestion, etc. As with everything else we have encountered so far however, the quality wasn't quite what we would hope. And since we have access to the best ingredients available, we started making our own. Our very good friends Michael and Sarah from LA gave us the idea after they started doing it for their awesome pup, Augustus Tuttle, yeah that's his name. Pretty awesome. One thing led to another in a very quick fashion and we will be making raw paleo dog food for you guys! We will be able to ship it all over the country and it will come in a variety of meats. We will start with a grass fed beef, sourced directly from Seth at Open Space Meats. We are super excited about this new venture. It is called The Omnivore's Pet. More info to come soon.
