our story
It Began With Daisy
who we are
We believe in the power of raw. Our products have just the natural good stuff – no preservatives or additives – so pets can play harder and live longer.
A Totally Raw Pet Food Diet
Daisy joined our family in April 1999. She was fed a recommended dry food diet. In the Summer of 2000, Daisy was diagnosed with a malignant tumour. She was immediately scheduled for surgery, and the tumour was successfully removed. Daisy had persistent health problems since she was a very young puppy. We struggled to understand why she was chronically ill. We began researching diet and the relationship to canine cancer and other chronic health issues.
After educating ourselves on natural nutrition and the commercial pet food industry, we no longer believed a processed food diet could be a healthy diet. Using local ingredients, we created a balanced raw food diet for Daisy. Daisy’s cancer went into remission and never returned. Within a month, Daisy was a new dog. She achieved a healthy weight, her coat became thick and luxurious, her energy increased, and her teeth and gums we clean and healthy. Daisy lived a long, happy and healthy life.
Daisy’s raw food diet eventually evolved into Totally Raw Pet Food. Totally Raw was created out of necessity because we wanted the best for Daisy. Our Mission is to share that with you.
