šŸ‡æšŸ‡¦ Happy Heritage Day, South Africa! šŸ‡æšŸ‡¦

Today we celebrate the rich diversity of our country, our people, our traditions, and even our food. Just like us, our pets deserve meals that honour their true heritage.

At Pawsome Raw, we believe in feeding dogs and cats the way nature intended — with real, species-appropriate nutrition that connects them back to their roots as carnivores.

As we enjoy our braais and cultural celebrations, let’s also celebrate the heritage of our pets by nourishing them with wholesome, natural food that keeps them thriving.

Why consider raw feeding for your dog’s long-term wellness?
Raw feeding isn’t just a trend; it’s about supporting preventative health and giving pets the kind of nutrition they were designed to thrive on.

Here’s what raw brings to the table:

āœ… Minimal processing, preserving natural enzymes, amino acids, and heat-sensitive vitamins.
āœ… High moisture content to support kidney function and healthy digestion.
āœ… Biologically appropriate proteins that can be tailored for pets with sensitivities or special health needs.
āœ… Natural bones and connective tissue to promote strong joints and dental health.

And here’s the best part:
You don’t have to go all in right away. Even adding a few fresh, raw meals a week can make a noticeable difference to your pet’s health and vitality.

Have you tried adding fresh raw meals to your dog’s bowl yet?

Debating the raw switch this Spring? 🌷

Raw is safer than you think. It gives you an edge over obesity, because the moisture-rich food fights hunger better than dry kibble. The extra taurine for heart health means more garden sniffs for the seniors.

Considering raw? It's your pet's ticket to seasonal energy.

What's holding you back?
Cost? Time? Info overload?

Has your pup's p**p turned into a rainbow? 🌈

Raw feeding wisdom to the rescue!

1 Green p**p? Too much grass. Try cooling fish proteins to settle the gut.
2 Yellow or soft? Digestion’s off. Rotate in Pawsome Raw’s lean rabbit.
3 Red flags (black/red)? Vet time, stat.

Raw diets keep stools firm and healthy. šŸ’©

🌸 Spring has sprung in South Africa, and it's the perfect time to give your pet a fresh start!

As flowers bloom and pollen flies, many pups face allergies, extra pounds from winter coziness, or just low energy for those longer walks.

That's where raw feeding shines. It's nature's way to detox, reduce inflammation, and build stronger bones with real, whole foods like our ethically sourced proteins.

No more kibble crashes; hello, vibrant vitality!

If you’re ready to make ā€œThe Switchā€ write SWITCH in the comments and we’ll DM you the Guide to Making the Switch.

Weekends are best spent in the garden… but not all plants are safe for your furry friends. Here’s a quick guide to keep tails wagging while you enjoy the sunshine:

āœ… Dog-Safe Plants
• Sunflowers
• Marigolds
• Roses

🚫 Toxic for Dogs
• Azaleas
• Tulips
• Daffodils

šŸ‘‰ If you’re sprucing up your garden this spring, choose pet-safe plants to keep your space both beautiful and safe.

Have you spotted any of these in your garden?
Share below, let’s build a safe plant list together! 🌿

Out with the old… in with the natural! āœ…

āŒ Processed carbs & fillers? Say goodbye.
āœ… Fresh, species-appropriate raw? Absolutely yes!

Your pet deserves more than just ā€œfiller food.ā€

Real, raw nutrition can boost energy, improve coat health, and support digestion.

Start small: swap one meal at a time and watch your furry friend thrive. Their body (and tail!) will thank you. šŸ’š

šŸ’” Pro Tip: Pair fresh raw meals with safe, natural treats for the ultimate health boost.

Warmer days mean hydration matters more than ever.

Did you know bone broth isn’t just tasty, it’s also a nourishing way to keep your dog hydrated? Packed with collagen, minerals, and amino acids, bone broth is spring’s ultimate hydration hero.

šŸ’” Quick Tip: Freeze bone broth in an ice cube tray. Pop a cube into your dog’s meal as a topper or serve it as a refreshing summer treat to keep tails wagging and hydration levels up!

Would your dog lick up every last drop of a broth cube?

Did you know your dog’s stomach acid is about 10x stronger than ours? 🐾

That super-strong acid helps them:
🦓 Break down raw bones safely
🄩 Digest raw meat efficiently
šŸ›”ļø Destroy harmful bacteria that could make us humans sick

It’s one of nature’s clever designs that shows just how well dogs are built for a raw, species-appropriate diet! šŸŒæšŸ•

šŸ‘‰ Did you know this about your dog’s digestion?

Is Rice Really Good for Dogs? Let’s Break It Down!

A lot of people add rice to their dog’s meals because it shows up in kibble or they’ve always heard it’s ā€œhealthy.ā€ But here’s the truth:

🐾 Little Nutritional Value āž”ļø Rice is mostly just carbs. If your dog already eats a high-carb diet, adding more doesn’t help.
🐾 Why Kibble Brands Use It āž”ļø It’s cheap, easy to digest, helps bind kibble together, and makes labels sound more ā€œpremium.ā€
🐾 Arsenic Concerns āž”ļø Studies show dogs eating rice-heavy diets can have higher arsenic levels.
🐾 Nutritional Gaps āž”ļø Rice adds calories but pushes out proteins, fats, vitamins, and minerals your dog really needs.

So, what’s the bottom line?
āœ… Rice every now and then as a leftover = not a problem.
āœ… Rice in a balanced homemade recipe = fine in moderation.
āŒ Rice as a daily filler or main ingredient = not so great for your dog’s long-term health.

šŸ‘‰ Pro tip: If your dog has an upset tummy, skip the old ā€œchicken & riceā€ advice. Try 50:50 boiled turkey or white fish with pumpkin instead – gentler on digestion and more nourishing.

It’s the first day of Spring and time for a little spring cleaning… but not just for your home! šŸ’ Have you thought about giving your dog’s diet a clean-up too?

Just like we clear out the clutter, our pets’ bowls can also do with a refresh.

āŒ Out with fillers, artificial additives and processed kibble.
āœ… In with fresh, natural ingredients that truly nourish from the inside out.

A fresh, species-appropriate diet can support:
• Shiny coats
• Better digestion
• Stronger immune systems
• Happier, healthier pups

This Spring, let’s not only clean our homes, but let’s spring clean our pets’ plates for a season full of health and vitality!

Question: ā“ā“
If you could swap ONE thing in your dog’s bowl this Spring, what would it be?
