Thank You from RAWZ!

Why we started RAWZ Natural Pet Food?
First and foremost, we hope you and your pets enjoy Memorial Day while we all remember the brave Americans whom this holiday honors! I was 15 years old when Wellness was first introduced by Old Mother Hubbard in the late 90’s. I vividly remember sitting at a picnic table in North Conway and going through […]
The benefits of shopping at an independent pet specialty retail store
The decision of what to feed your pet is of the utmost importance. Important, but not easy. A Google search for “pet food” yields about 240 million results. Obviously visiting a large retailer doesn’t mean facing millions of different products, but it can certainly feel that way. How then is a consumer faced with the […]
