🐾 Why do some vets dislike raw feeding? 🐾

It can feel like you’re walking into battle when raw feeding comes up at the vets. Some see raw as the enemy, while others are happy to stand by your side like a hero.

Here’s why some vets are cautious 👇

⚔️ Training & Tradition – Most vets are taught nutrition through big-brand pet food companies. Kibble is what they know, so raw feels “different” and sometimes even risky.

⚔️ Bacteria Concerns – Words like salmonella and campylobacter come up a lot. While handling raw does require good hygiene, it’s no more dangerous than prepping your own raw chicken dinner.

⚔️ Incomplete Diets – Some worry about owners not balancing meals correctly. And they’re right—throwing random cuts of meat in a bowl isn’t the same as a complete raw diet. (More on this to come)

⚔️ Fear of the Unknown – they may default to caution. It’s safer (for them) to stick with the “official” guidelines.

But here’s the flip side… 🦸‍♀️

🌟 Some vets DO support raw feeding, especially when they see the difference it makes to pets—glossy coats, cleaner teeth, better digestion, calmer behaviour, but we all know it’s deeper than that!

🌟 More vets are starting to learn about it, either through nutrition courses or from pet parents like you who share success stories.

🌟 And the best vets? They work with you. They may not always agree, but they respect your choices and put your pet’s health first.

💡 And here’s where you vote with your feet.
Coming on nearly 20 years ago, I left a vet practice because they didn’t support raw feeding. At every corner they made it extremely difficult, undermining the choices I made for my pets. So I walked away.

Instead, I found vets who aligned with how I wanted to care for my animals and guess what? They actually stocked raw pet food in the practice. That spoke volumes.

🐺 Heroes or enemies, vets will always have their views. But ultimately, we as pet parents choose where we go and who we trust. This is a two way street, they should be vested in what’s best for you and your pet.

✨ There’s something you should know…

I adore ferrets! 🦦 🥰 These little pocket rockets are bundles of curiosity, comedy, and chaos all rolled into one. If you’ve ever witnessed the famous weasel war dance — that hilarious sideways hop, puffed-up tail and completely uncoordinated bounce 🤸‍♂️ — you’ll know just how full of life they are.

But here’s the thing… all that energy doesn’t just come from nowhere. Ferrets are obligate carnivores, meaning their bodies are designed to thrive on meat, bone, and organ. 🥩 That’s why a raw diet is so important. It fuels their playtime zoomies, supports those pearly white teeth (no kibble sludge here 👀), keeps their coats silky, and even reduces those… erm… ferrety poos 💩 (yes, really!).

Raw feeding is about giving them what nature intended — so they can nap hard 😴 and war-dance harder 💃.

👉 Do you raw feed your ferrets? Or have you ever been owned by one of these mischievous little clowns?

🥩🐾 10 Reasons to Switch Your Pets to Raw Diet🐾🥩

1️⃣ Shiny Coats & Healthy Skin (Naturally Less Itchy) ✨ – Natural oils in raw meat keep coats glossy and skin nourished.
2️⃣ Smaller, Less Smelly Poos 💩 – Raw is highly digestible, meaning less waste out the other end.
3️⃣ Cleaner Teeth & Fresher Breath 🦷 – Chewing raw meaty bones helps reduce plaque and tartar.
4️⃣ Boosted Energy & Vitality ⚡ – Real food = real fuel for playtime, walks, and zoomies, plus they can focus better when training!
5️⃣ Improved Digestion 🐕🐈 – No fillers, no nasties, just species-appropriate food that’s gentle on the gut.
6️⃣ Stronger Immune System 🛡️ – Around 80% of the immune system lives in the gut – feed it right!
7️⃣ Better Weight Control ⚖️ – Balanced raw diets help keep pets lean and healthy.
8️⃣ Supports Joint Health 🐾 – Natural glucosamine, chondroitin & collagen from raw bones and cartilage.
9️⃣ Less Allergies & Sensitivities 🌿 – Grain-free, single proteins make it easier to avoid common triggers.
🔟 It’s What They’re Designed to Eat 🐺🐆 – Dogs, cats, and ferrets are carnivores; raw feeding respects their natural diet.

Unfortunately… I do love… 🫣 continued… 😆

👉🏻 sniffing a tub of tripe before I dish it up (yes, really 😂)
👉🏻 spending my Saturday nights doing freezer Tetris with dog food 🥶

👉🏻 making every conversation about dogs so much my friends just nod and smile 🐾

But that’s me, and that’s why I started Stefs Pet Pantry 💚

What’s your “unfortunately I do love…”? I bet some of you are just as guilty 👇🏻

Being a small business owner isn’t always the easy ride people think it might be 💭

There are the downfalls… long hours that stretch late into the night, the constant juggling of hats (from cleaner to accountant to customer service rep!), the worries that keep you awake wondering if you’ve made the right decisions, and the sacrifices you make that most people never see.

But then there are the highs 🌟 the moments that make it all worthwhile… like seeing a happy customer’s review pop up, meeting the pets and people we get to serve, building something from scratch and watching it grow, and knowing every little win is down to sheer hard work, passion and determination.

It’s not always glamorous, and it’s rarely straightforward, but I wouldn’t swap this journey for anything 🐾❤️ Thank you to every single one of you who continues to support us — you are the reason we keep going, even on the toughest days.

Stefs Journey

“My journey with fresh raw dog food started with my lovely Labrador, Skye. She was 9 at the time, and crippled with arthritis and spondylosis of the spine (degeneration of the spinal column). This led to her having horrific pain in her back and hips.

Skye had been on all the usual pain relief for a while, as well as the ‘best’ kibble foods (I was uneducated then). Sadly, the pain relief wasn’t having much effect anymore so she couldn’t carry on like this. My choices were either to put her to sleep or try something else.

Heartbroken at the thought of losing my girl, I took to the internet looking for a miracle cure. This is when I came across raw dog food, also known as the BARF (Biologically Appropriate Raw Food) diet.

Reading some of the fantastic stories about how raw dog food had changed so many dog’s lives, I decided to find out more. After buying endless books, I decided to give raw dog food a try.
