🌀 Movement is Medicine 🐾

Dogs are built to move — not just to burn off energy, but to regulate emotion, release stress, and feel grounded in their bodies.

A structured walk (minimum 20 minutes, ideally more depending on breed and age) is non-negotiable.

Letting them run in the yard is not a replacement — it’s a great additional movement, but it doesn’t fulfill their need for exploration, scent tracking, and purposeful flow.

🦴 A walk brings rhythm.
🦴 It sharpens focus.
🦴 It creates calm.

Whether it’s the park, the bush, or your neighborhood, movement restores balance and makes your dog more present and receptive to learning.

🌍✨ Happy Earth Day from Emmarentia Raw! ✨🌍

Today, we honour the land that feeds us, the wild that inspires us, and the animals who remind us what it means to live in balance. 🌱🐾

At Emmarentia Raw, we believe that nourishing our pets naturally also means respecting the planet — by choosing ethically sourced ingredients, reducing waste, and staying rooted in sustainability.

This Earth Day, let’s all take a moment to give back to the soil beneath our feet, the air our animals breathe, and the wild spaces we all call home. 🌿💚

🐶✨ Raw feeding. Wildly natural. Deeply conscious.

It’s remarkable to hear the feedback we receive from dog owners regarding the positive changes in their pets' behavior after just a short time on our food.

In addition to supporting their mental well-being, our food helps with weight reduction because it contains no grains or unhealthy carbohydrates.

This is truly an exceptional food that promotes balance in the mind, body, and spirit of your pet. What more could you ask for?

We love our vegetables, and especially broccoli. For humans, broccoli is considered a superfood, offering many benefits that are not widely known.

Broccoli contains:

• Glucosinolates: These compounds are broken down by the body into isothiocyanates, which may help reduce oxidative stress and lower the risk of neurodegenerative diseases.

• Selenium: Some studies suggest that selenium may help combat depression, anxiety, and fatigue.

A testimonial for the Emmarentia Raw product vs another raw dog food brand, so interesting!

"Forrest is my young German Shepherd, and like many GSDs he can be quite sensitive. I unexpectedly had to switch to another raw dog food brand temporarily and noticed a difference almost immediately. His poops were less solid, smellier, and more yellow in colour, and worst of all, he's itching far more than is normal, especially chewing at his paws which was new for him. The other brand has a good reputation and is well made, but it contains chicken in all their recipes, which is likely the culprit.

Since switching back to Emmarentia Raw, things have improved—his poops are consistently solid, and his itching has greatly decreased. Emmarentia Raw clearly works well for him, and we’ll be sticking with it!"

Our favorite time of the day and what we build our holidays on. There is no better way to attain the most beneficial relationship than with your dog on long walks. Great read Getaway Magazine

Furry friends make the best outdoor companions. Thankfully, there's no shortage of pet-friendly hikes in South Africa.

The goal of raw feeding is to ensure a long and healthy life for our animals - and we're sure that's your goal as a pet parent too!

While dogs are able to digest carbohydrates & cereals, that doesn't change what they SHOULD be eating.

Every dog is an individual, but they all have very similar biology, and their biology tells us that a raw diet is the best way to ensure lifelong health.

Want to give your canine their best shot at a long life? Switch to a raw diet today!

Cucumbers are a worthy addition to the canine diet and here's why:

They are low in calories but high in nutrition! Not only do they help keep your dog hydrated since they're 96% water, but they also are rich is many essential nutrients.

The high potassium helps support muscle function and the Vitamins K & C as well as magnesium found in them are essential to proper organ function.

The skin is also loaded with soluble fibre which helps your dog maintain a healthy gut and keeps their digestive system running smoothly!

All this is why cucumbers are included in every Emmarentia Raw recipe 🥒
