Primal Pet Food Review and Giveaway

Most of us are here because our Tripawd was diagnosed with cancer. That dreaded condition really makes us think about what goes into our pet’s food bowl. We constantly wonder: “Did that cheap pet food cause the cancer?” “What can we feed to keep it from coming back?”

They depend on us for healthy food.

It’s simple: dog or cat, human or otherwise, we are what we eat. The food we scoop into our pet’s bowl affects their skin, coat, eyes, brain and more. We enjoy hunting down the best foods we can feed our cats and dogs so today we’re shining the spotlight on Primal Pet Foods, one of the first and most respected U.S. pet food producers to create a highly nutritious, commercially available raw food diet for cats and dogs.

Get ready for the hunt! You’re going to love what you find.

Going Wild Over Primal Raw Pet Foods

Raw food for cats and dogs isn’t a new craze – it goes back thousands of years. Also known as “BARF (Bones and Raw Food or Biologically Appropriate Raw Food),” it’s the only real “pet food” to come out of Mother Nature’s pantry.

Yes, he devoured this raw elk bone.

The BARF (raw) diet is based on feeding raw meaty bones, muscle meat, organs and raw, fresh fruits and vegetables to our pets. Why do it? Because in the wild animals subsist on the flesh, bones and innards of their prey. By feeding these uncooked ingredients to our pets, we can mimic the eating habits of animals in their natural habitat.

The problem is that feeding a raw pet food diet on your own is tricky. Most online recipes for raw food for dogs and cats are inadequate. Not this one.

Primal Pet Foods is the easiest and safest way to feed a nutritionally balanced raw food diet for cats and dogs.

Primal gives your dog or cat optimum nutrition through raw ingredients packed with active enzymes, unprocessed amino acids and necessary vitamins and minerals that are so important for a natural, long, happy and healthy life.

Primal has an entire line of complete and balanced, frozen and freeze-dried raw-food, like the Pork Formula we gave Wyatt. There’s currently over 13 types of protein sources to choose from, making it easy to rotate foods into your pet’s feeding routine.

Feed Raw with Peace of Mind

We always wanted to put our Wild Boy Wyatt on a raw food diet but stocking our tiny apartment-sized RV freezer and refrigerator with raw meats just didn’t. Now that we’ve had the chance to do this Primal Pet Foods review, we’ve got no excuse not to get the Wild One on the most complete raw food diet for cats and dogs available.

He found his prey!

Here’s how our hunt went down:

  • It pays to watch Primal’s education videos about preparing their freeze-dried or frozen foods. Silly us, we just dumped the freeze-dried nuggets into a bowl without breaking them up, which is necessary to add moisture to the food.
  • We also learned that heating it up is a no-no because heat kills the beneficial enzymes and nutrients in those little raw nuggets. Check out Primal’s tips for preparing raw pet food.
  • Primal’s Feeding Calculator is a handy tool for understanding the different ways to make the switch to a BARF diet.

  1. Liam and Sinead love Primal! We haven’t yet tried the pork flavor, but we’ve moved through almost every other formulation the company offers. Good stuff.

    So what brings out the primal instinct in these wee guys? Toys! Particularly small toys that squeak.

    Reply
  2. Jean isn’t is fantastic stuff? We fed it to Wyatt with no problems at all, so nice to know he can tolerate it, I wasn’t too sure.

    Small squeaky toys are the BEST! I’ll bet they have tons right?

  3. Always love seeing handsome Wyatt. Knowing he tries out things first and we can count on an honest review from him is reason enough to try a product!

    Hmmm…ao far can’t say Ive seen a “primal instinct” show up in a “noticeable” way with Merry Myrtle. She sits quietly by my side as we watch the bunnies and deer and never so much as barks.

    Oh, but wait, maybe this counts! She’ll eat deer poop and bunny poop all day long if I let her!

  4. My dog Mike is a senior; so really his primal moments are not long in duration because he gets tired. Basically, if he thinks anything is threatening Mommy (me) he dances around on his little legs and barks his head off – very briefly. Then he takes a nap.

  5. The UPS man brings out the big dog in Mike (he is a chihuahua & corgi mix); it’s pretty primal actually – it’s like he thinks he’s a wolf.

  6. Lady Girl goes primal at the sight of any living creature. She goes wiggle waggle happy at any living human, except my hubby. She is jealous of him, BOL!!!

  7. Mike gets fairly primal when he sees cats outside of the screen door. he goes nuts. Oddly when he gets up close to them he just sniffs them.

    Reply
  8. Seriously Mike’s most primal instinct seems to be his ‘bark and make myself appear to be a bigger dog to protect mommy’ instinct which shows itself in the presence of strangers. Cute when you consider that he is 10 years old and only met me this past January when he was adopted, but he never had a mommy before so we understand.

    Reply
  9. Mike’s other primal instinct is to be directly under my feet at all times; what purpose this served his ancestors in the wild we do not know.

  10. In my opinion only, food that lasts for a year & a half, must be cancer causing. I wouldn’t buy a piece of meat that was 3 weeks old, ..would you? 11-09-19 is the best before date, right now it’s Aug. 1st-2018. I would guess (although there are dozens of names for it), embalming fluid is used to give it this shelf life. Embalming fluid should only be used in the Funeral business, after a person dies.
    I’m thinking this is going to shorten the life of your dog & you will have plenty of vet bills before that happens. I feed my dog hamburg from a place that’s chemical free. It’s $5.50 a pound, but I mix it with canned food 3/4 hamburg to 1/4 canned. I also feed him carrots & turnip & he is going on 16, & has been to a vet twice, once as a pup to be fixed & a second time because I felt a lump that was nothing. Personally I would hang the makers of hard, dried dog food, because just like the makers of cigarettes, asbestos products, they know they are killers…IMO!!!!
