Meet Sabra & Awa; Founders of Wellness Dog Co.
Though Wellness Dog Co. was established in 2024, we've been part of the raw feeding community for close to a decade. The journey began in 2016 here, when Awa was only a puppy.
Transitioning to Raw
Before You Start:
- Puppies: Proceed to Step 2.
- Adult Dogs: Fast for 24 hours before their first raw meal. Note: No snacks or chews during this period!
Step 1: Choose Your Transition Method
Decide between a gradual transition or a "cold turkey" approach. (Cold turkey means switching to raw food immediately!)
Step 2: Start with One Protein
Begin with a single protein source. We recommend poultry, as it is typically the easiest for dogs to digest. Consider starting with chicken or duck.
Step 3: Feed for One Week
Feed your dog only this protein for at least a week. Some dogs may require more time to adjust. Offering bland meals can help ease this transition.
Step 4: Introduce Additional Proteins Slowly
After a week, you can gradually introduce new proteins. Monitor your dog closely and ensure they are adjusting well with each addition. Pay attention to their stools; firm, solid poop is a good sign before making any further changes.

from 11 reviewsMy first time ordering food like this for my dogs, but now they can’t get enough of it! Well worth it
Loved the service! Always a bit nervous ordering from online but this was worth it, will continue getting my dog food from these guys.
My dog is super picky so was nervous switching her to this. She loves this stuff n i will be ordering more.
Ordered from here for my own dog after I saw this was what my uncle uses to feed his dog. That dog always eats well and it shows in how his coat is always smooth & shines. It’s nice to see quality ingredients used to feed pets!! My dog always fights me for his food during feeding time lol
I tried this service for my Milo, and it’s been great! He’s got more energy, especially at mealtime, and his coat is looking more shinier and softer. It’s a simple, natural boost that’s made him feel and look better. Definitely recommend it if you want to see a change!
Blue has never been so excited to eat. Its really something to see. He licks every the bowl clean and the tiles. The ingredients are fresh and smell intense, this is what dogs love I guess. Money well spent
Can’t thank Wellness dog for the amazing food. Charlie has stopped itching and the redness on his stomach has disappeared. Also he goes crazy now at mealtimes :) Thanks again, Mary
Noticeable difference in the thickness of my boys coat after a few weeks in. Had problems with itch and patchy fur so very happy
Foods packed with awesome ingredients. Daily bags save time!
We love the food! We started from instagram and happy that it’s available again as there’s no better food. Thanks Sabra & Awa
Sabra has been supplying GiGi and I food for years from her instagram days. Easy and healthy
