Raw Food Benefits

Healthy Teeth & Breath

Your pet will have better breath, minimal tartar buildup, and beautifully clean and healthy teeth.

Healthy Skin & Coat

A natural diet can support healthier skin and help reduce ongoing skin concerns. That means no more vet visits, medicated washes, antibiotics, cortisone shots and cortisone tablets.

Optimum Immune System

A good balance of essential fatty acids and other immune-boosting and strengthening nutrients helps reduce inflammatory conditions and ward off infections.

Enhanced Digestion & Absorption of Nutrients

Living enzymes break down and utilise food to maximise the digestive system’s effectiveness.

Stool Volume & Odour

Raw is more readily absorbed in the digestive system than dry food kibble biscuit diets, resulting in reduced stool volume and odour. Odorous stools are a result of improper or incomplete digestion of nutrients.

Healthy, Lean Body Mass

Lose unwanted fat and gain that much-desired increase in muscle mass. This increases your pet’s metabolic rate, activity levels, and healthy lifespan.

FAQs about Somerford Raw & Natural

All Your Questions, Answered

Why do you use offal in your recipes?

Offal sits at the heart of a truly complete, species‑appropriate raw diet — and it’s something our Somerford community understands deeply.

Offal brings the nutrient density that muscle meat alone can’t deliver. It’s naturally packed with B vitamins, iron, zinc, copper, and the all‑important fat‑soluble vitamins A, D, E and K that support long‑term health, vitality, and whole‑body wellbeing.

When we feed offal alongside bone and quality muscle meat, we’re giving our dogs and cats the balanced, biologically appropriate nutrition they’re designed to thrive on. It’s one of the core principles our Somerford Raw family stands behind — nourishing pets the way nature intended.

Is Somerford raw natural pet food complete, or do I need to add anything?

Our Somerford Raw community knows that real, natural food should do the heavy lifting — and that’s exactly why our meals are crafted to be naturally complete, balanced, and ready to serve.

Every recipe is built with the right mix of muscle meat, bone, offal, and natural whole‑food ingredients, giving dogs and cats everything they need for everyday health and vitality. There’s no need for extra supplements, no mixing, no complicated add‑ons — just honest, species‑appropriate nutrition made from premium Australian, human‑grade ingredients.

It’s the kind of feeding that keeps our community confident, connected, and proud of what goes into their pets’ bowls.

Can dogs and cats eat this food cooked?

Our Somerford Raw family knows that raw feeding delivers the greatest nutritional benefit, but we also understand that some pets need a gentle transition — and that’s perfectly okay within our community.

Our meals can be lightly cooked if needed. Simply warm the food over medium heat for a few minutes, just until the colour and texture begin to change. As your pet grows more confident with their new diet, you can gradually reduce the cooking time until they’re enjoying their meals completely raw.

Because heating can remove up to 60% of nutrients, feeding raw gives your pet the richest, most biologically appropriate nutrition — the kind our community is proud to stand behind.

My pet has allergies or skin issues. Is this diet suitable?

Many pets develop allergies and skin issues due to highly processed food, artificial additives, or mixed proteins.

Many pets in our Somerford community arrive with itchy skin, tummy troubles, or long‑term allergies — often caused by processed foods, additives, or mixed proteins. That’s why our single‑protein meals, novel proteins, and elimination diet packs have become such trusted tools for families wanting clarity and real results.

Feeding one clean protein for several days — or up to six weeks — helps identify sensitivities and reset your pet’s nutrition. Our community sees the same improvements again and again: calmer skin, shinier coats, better digestion, happier pets.

For tougher allergy cases, our novel proteins like crocodile, goat, venison, and duck offer a fresh option pets haven’t been exposed to before. And our fish varieties — salmon and barramundi — are community favourites for their gentle, anti‑inflammatory support.

If you’d like a deeper dive into the process, you can explore elimination diets or novel proteins anytime.

Can I safely defrost, re-portion, and refreeze the food?

Absolutely — and this is something our Somerford Raw community does every day with confidence.

You can safely defrost, portion, and refreeze our meals when handled with the same care you’d use for human‑grade meat. Always defrost in the fridge, keep the food cold while portioning, and refreeze promptly to maintain freshness and safety.

This process is exactly what our best‑selling 10kg and 20kg Bulk Packs are designed for. Families love being able to defrost a larger block, portion it into their pet’s perfect serve sizes, and refreeze — making raw feeding easier, more economical, and perfectly suited to busy routines.

Why choose raw, natural pet food over dry or processed food?

Raw feeding sits at the heart of our Somerford community because it mirrors what dogs and cats are naturally built to eat — real food, real nutrition, nothing unnecessary.

Our raw, natural meals support whole‑body health, not just surface‑level improvements. Families across our community see the same benefits again and again: better digestion, calmer skin, shinier coats, cleaner teeth, steadier energy, and pets who simply feel more comfortable in their own bodies.

A truly natural diet doesn’t mask issues with additives — it nourishes from the inside out. And when pets thrive on real food, you see fewer problems, fewer flare‑ups, and a happier, healthier companion.

Is Somerford Raw & Natural suitable for cats as well as dogs?

For our Somerford community, the importance of moisture‑rich, biologically appropriate food for cats is massive — especially because so many cats develop kidney and urinary issues after years on dry, processed kibble that simply doesn’t provide the hydration their bodies rely on.

Cats have a naturally low thirst drive, meaning they’re designed to get most of their water from their food, not a water bowl. When moisture is missing, kidneys work harder, dehydration creeps in, and urinary problems become common.

That’s exactly why we created our dedicated cat range. Cats can’t process the fruit and veg found in our dog recipes, and they have unique nutritional needs — including higher levels of taurine, an essential amino acid for heart, eye, and whole‑body health. Our cat range is built specifically for them: high‑moisture, high‑protein, taurine‑rich, and free from ingredients their bodies can’t use.

It’s the kind of species‑appropriate feeding our community stands behind — helping cats stay hydrated, supporting kidney and urinary health, and giving them the nutrition they’re truly designed to thrive on.

Where can I get your raw pet food?

Pet owners in our Somerford community can shop however it suits them — either online or by visiting our factory‑outlet store, The Pet Shop Boyz, located at Unit 1/5 Channel Road, Mayfield West, NSW 2304.

It’s easy to access the raw, natural nutrition your pets thrive on, whether you prefer to order from home or drop in and chat with the team.

Our Somerford Raw community loves that our store is a true one‑stop hub for everything pets need — from raw, natural nutrition to expert guidance and warm, reliable customer care.

Whether you visit us in person or prefer to shop from home, it’s easy to keep your pets nourished. You can order online and enjoy Australia‑wide delivery through refrigerated transport, ensuring your food arrives freshly frozen and ready to serve. And whether you shop in‑store or order online, finding the right nutrition for your pet is always simple, supportive, and community‑focused.

How much should I feed my pet each day?

In our Somerford community, feeding amounts always come back to your pet’s unique needs — their size, age, activity level, and overall health. Dogs generally thrive on eating a percentage of their body weight each day, while cats do best with smaller, more frequent meals that match their natural eating patterns.

To make things simple, you can use our feeding calculator to find the perfect starting point. And if your pet needs adjustments along the way, our team is always here to help you fine‑tune their meals so they stay happy, healthy, and thriving on raw.

Why is bone included in the diet?

In our Somerford community, meaty bones are an important part of a natural, balanced diet, which is why we include free meaty bones in our Tub Packs and build the right amount of bone directly into our meal packs.

Bones provide essential calcium and phosphorus, supporting strong teeth, healthy bones, and proper digestion. When included in the correct ratio, they help keep your pet’s diet complete, safe, and biologically appropriate for everyday feeding.

The added meaty bones in our tubs give families an easy way to offer chewing enrichment, cleaner teeth, and extra nutritional support, while the bone already in our meals ensures pets get the perfect balance in every serve.

How do I choose the right product for my pet?

Choosing the right product is all about your pet’s individual needs, and that’s something our Somerford community takes seriously. Start with your pet’s age, size, activity level, and any health sensitivities, then explore the ranges built to help them thrive:

  • Adult Meals for everyday, complete nutrition
  • Puppy and Baby Puppy for growing bodies that need extra support
  • Elimination Diet packs
    for pets with sensitive tummies or those needing a structured elimination plan to identify food triggers.
  • Novel proteins for long‑term allergy management
  • Dedicated cat range for moisture‑rich, taurine‑focused feline nutrition
  • Low Purine for breeds needing gentler purine levels
  • Fish varieties for skin, coat, and anti‑inflammatory support
  • Bulk packs for families who portion and freeze
  • Protein Boost for pets to be fed in conjunction with kibble, DIY feeders, or those building meals from a clean single‑protein base

To make things simple, you can use our feeding calculator to find the perfect starting point for daily amounts.

And of course, our team is always here to help you choose the right product and adjust your pet’s diet as they grow, change, and thrive within our Somerford community.
