      Frequently Asked Questions

      What are Raw Meaty Bones (RMB)?

      Dogs and Cats have a nutritional requirement for calcium. Raw edible bone provides this essential mineral in a raw diet. Raw Meaty Bones are all-natural, soft, pliable bones your pet can crunch, tear through and eat. Raw Meaty bones are also rich in phosphorus, amino acids, protein, essential fatty acids, fiber, enzymes, and antioxidants. They’re great for pets with sensitive stomachs and food allergies as a single-ingredient treat. Our signature raw meal blends contain ground-up raw meaty bones mixed in.  Some examples include Chicken necks, feet, Pork riblets, and Duck wings.

      You can hand-feed RMB using a paper towel to encourage slower eating if necessary. It is perfectly safe and healthy for your pet to enjoy appropriately sized, non-weight-bearing raw bones. In fact, feeding RMBs provides jaw exercise, mental stimulation, and natural teeth cleaning. For teething puppies and kittens, RMBs are a great alternative to furniture and shoes!

      Unless your pet has an underlying condition that prevents them from being able to chew bones (missing/fractured teeth, gulper feeding style), whole raw meaty bones are an excellent addition for them regardless of their primary source of food. 

      General RMB Diet Requirements based on age:

      Kitten and Puppies- 17%

      *Very small kittens and puppies may require ground bone until their jaws are strong

      *Kittens get their adult teeth around 6 months and can move to larger bones

      Adult Dogs- 10%

      Adult Cats- 6%

      Can I feed it cooked? Are bones dangerous?

      Cooked bones are dangerous as they can splinter and are very sharp. Raw meaty bones are pliable and soft and break easily at the joint. Your pet is meant to eat meat and bones in their raw form. Never feed cooked bones.

      How should I add Raw Meaty Bones to my dog's diet?

      For Adult dogs and cats, you can offer raw meaty bones as an occasional treat in addition to their regular meals. We recommend starting with 1-2x per week.

      If you have a puppy or kitten, we recommend booking a consultation to work out a custom feeding plan on how many and which bones to add to our signature meals on a daily basis.

      Can I feed Raw Meaty Bones if I don't feed a raw diet?

      Absolutely! Any quantity of fresh food is better than none at all.


      Raw Meaty Bones are a great option for a fresh weekly treat to provide mental and physical stimulation, power-packed nutrients, and teeth and gum cleaning.

      Where do you source from?
