List of US-Dog Breeders who Feed Raw Dog Food

Dog breeders who feed raw dog food help support your puppy’s immune system even before they’re born!

That’s what naturally rearing Boxer breeder Paula Vandervoort says in an interview on The Well Oiled K9.

I feature both her website and the podcast episode she appeared on in the Texas entry in this blog post.

And I couldn’t agree more with her.

Having said that, naturally rearing dog breeders are a bit tricky to discover, but I found several across 26 States!

I found them doing both Google searches and with the help of Facebook groups over the course of a few weeks.

Now, I’m sure that there are more dog breeders out there who feed their bitches and puppies raw dog food.

So if you happen to be one or know of one, please let me know!

You can leave a note in the comment section under this blog post with a link to your website or email me at Barbara [at] k9sovercoffee.com.

I’ll be updating this list as I learn of new breeders who believe in raw-meat based diets for dogs.

She has fed raw in the US and Europe since 2015, after her Boxer mix Missy’s cancer diagnosis led her to move away from processed kibble and commit to species-appropriate nutrition.

As a former professional dog walker, she developed deep insight into canine behavior, conditioning, and the essential link between proper exercise and long-term health.

Barbara completed online training with veterinarian Dr. Marion Smart and Labrador breeder Dana Scott and works for one of Germany’s leading raw dog food brands, BARFER’S.
