About Canine Carnivore Raw Diet (CCRD)...
We decided to start Canine Carnivore LLC. after a dear friend, and all-things-dog
mentor, moved to a different state. She was responsible for opening our eyes to
the deleterious effects of typical kibble dog food, and to how and what dogs should
really consume. She is an avid proponent of a raw food diet for dogs, and has been
feeding her dogs a BARF diet for over a decade.
When we first met her, she was buying various meat parts, like chicken parts and
grinding them herself. After years of this effort, she helped put together a co-op
of a dozen or so people to group-purchase raw food from a national provider. We
had enough people to get a decent distributor price, but it was always a hassle
to wait for the delivery truck. Almost always it did not deliver anywhere near the
time it was supposed to, and after it did all of the food – many hundreds of pounds
– had to be divided up and distributed to the co-op members. Of course, during the
summer months timing and freezer space were extremely important while everyone waited
for the pickups from the various members.
After our friend moved away, the co-op fell apart and our options were to start
buying at a retail price – OUCH – or find some other way to provide our dogs the
diet they needed, without “breaking the bank”. Since there were no local suppliers,
we decided the best way to solve our raw food problem, and the problem many other
dog owners have, was to build a business that would supply top quality raw diet
foods at distributor prices – and eliminate the hassle of group bulk purchases.
