Raw Feeding & Pet Nutrition FAQ — Winnipeg

Straight answers to the questions we get every day at Barks N Purrs, 925 Headmaster Row #6, Winnipeg.

Where can I buy raw dog food in Winnipeg?

Barks N Purrs at 925 Headmaster Row #6 carries four Canadian raw brands: Big Country Raw, SMACK (made in Winnipeg), Carnivora (Saskatchewan), and Perfectly Raw (Manitoba). Shop in-store or order at barksnpurrspets.ca for local pickup.

Where can I buy Carnivora / SMACK / Big Country Raw / Perfectly Raw in Winnipeg?

We stock all four with a wide selection of proteins and formats, from smaller sleeves to bulk cases.

What's a good starting point for a dog with food sensitivities?

Some pet parents use simpler or single-protein recipes when trying to identify which ingredients work well for their dog. Carnivora and Perfectly Raw offer several single-protein and novel-protein options. If your dog has persistent digestive, skin or allergy symptoms, speak with your veterinarian before making major diet changes.

How much raw food should I feed my dog?

Feeding amount depends on age, ideal body weight, activity level and the specific food. The package feeding guide is a useful starting point. Our staff can help you compare portions, and your veterinarian can help with individual medical or weight-management needs.

Do you have loyalty programs?

Every raw brand we carry has one, tracked on a card we keep on file in-store: SMACK buy 8 get 1 free, Perfectly Raw buy 10 get 1 free, Big Country Raw and Carnivora buy 12 get 1 free. Protein switching counts on Carnivora and Perfectly Raw. Full details on our Rewards & Loyalty page.
