Real Pet Food, based in Rolleston, is the brand new, much larger premises which we relocated to, from the Hoon Hay Shopping Centre. We welcome you to visit our new store to see a much wider range of products, as listed below. Products in store are available in smaller pack sizes, in a range of fresh and frozen options.

Real Pet Food is owned and managed by Bernie Hutton. Bernie knows from experience that there is a lot of truth in that adage that “those who work for themselves are often the hardest workers”. After working for 56 years straight (as-at Christmas 2017) we respect the work ethic that has built and maintained the trusted reputation of Real Pet Food.

In the early years, Bernie owned his own farm in Canterbury, eventually selling it to purchase a butchers shop in Kumara in 1973. After 5 years Bernie sold the butcher shop to purchase a farm in Springs Junction.

For the next 14 years Bernie was based in Springs Junction, farming beef and sheep, until deciding to sell up and move to Canterbury. The move to Christchurch saw the purchase of a Pet Food Shop based at the Hoon Hay Shopping Centre; “Real Pet Food T/A Hillmorton Pet Foods” which is what we still run today. From humble beginnings this small store has now tripled in size, and continues to serve a steady stream of loyal customers.

"Since I started feeding my dog this fresh meat, it’s like I’ve got a different dog. I just have the one dog at the moment, a small-medium sized terrier, and I feed him a cupped handful of the Dog Mix every second day, and substitute that with a quality brand of dry biscuit. I also give him a raw bone once a week. I have seen the results that show it’s such a good diet because I can see the real fat in the meat itself, and looking at my dog he looks… bulked out a bit, more solid, with a much shinier coat.

It shows in the dogs energy too, he has a ton of sustained energy but he's less aggressive with it and just calmer. I believe that dogs need a bit of raw food to keep them going and the fresher the better. Years ago I fed my dogs supermarket brand pet food and the dogs had all kinds of skin problems. I don’t have any of those problems anymore."

- Ted, Rolleston.
