Yes, Frontier Pets food is raw. After mixing all raw ingredients together in our mixer, we use freeze-drying method to preserve the nutrition of raw food while making it convenient to serve. This method retains all the benefits of a raw diet without any of the hassle.

Our raw pet food may not look like usual raw food in the market, but we can confirm that our product is raw. Our food is biologically appropriate for adult dogs, adult cats, and puppy and eliminates the complexities of raw food preparation. Plus, it's Australian-made and crafted with the finest ingredients.

One of the main attractions of raw dog food is the variety and quality of ingredients. Here are some common components that Frontier Pets offer:

1. Meat: Chicken, beef, lamb, fish, and pork are popular choices. Organ meats like liver, kidney, tripe, and heart are also essential for a balanced diet.
2. Bones: Raw, meaty bones provide calcium and phosphorus. Chicken wings, necks, and chicken hearts are commonly used. We offer them as a whole food treat.
3. Fish: Sardines, salmon, and mackerel offer omega-3 fatty acids, which are great for skin health and coat health.
4. Fruits and Vegetables: Apples, carrots, spinach are added for essential vitamins and minerals.
5. Supplements: Are added to ensure a balanced diet, these include fish oil, kelp, and vitamin E, seaweed, turmeric and more.

Yes, switching to a raw food diet offers numerous benefits for dogs:

1. Sensitive Stomachs: Dogs with sensitive stomachs or allergic to gluten can benefit from raw food due to the absence of artificial additives, fillers, and cereals which is in pet kibbles. The natural wholefood ingredients are easier to digest, reducing the risk of gastrointestinal issues.
2. Skin Health: A raw food diet can significantly improve skin health. The natural fats and oils found in raw meat and fish may help maintain a healthy, shiny coat, and reduce skin irritation and dryness.
3. Digestive Health: High-quality proteins and natural ingredients enhance digestive health. Raw food diets are known to result in smaller, firmer stools, indicating better nutrient absorption and digestive efficiency.
4. Dental Health: Chewing raw bones or raw freeze-dried treats like our raw chicken necks naturally cleans your dog’s teeth, reducing plaque and tartar buildup. This can lead to better overall dental health and fresher breath.
