Dog Products – raw, cooked & human grade
To determine the nutritional requirements for a dog, pet owners should try to duplicate what a dog would eat if he/she did catch a chicken, duck, goose, rabbit, fish, etc. There would be a high level of protein (over 70%) in the form of raw muscle meats, bones & organs, and there would be a low percentage of grains, fruits or veggies already predigested in the stomach contents. These substances would be moist (unlike kibble which requires too much water consumption in order to digest) and free of preservatives.
Bones Pet Boutique™ carries a wide variety of fresh frozen foods for dogs. During your visit to the store, we will help you determine which products are most economical & convenient for you to prepare and best meet the nutritional requirements for your dog. We keep track of your purchases and we will help encourage you to feed a variety of different proteins to avoid the risk of a sensitivity developing.
We also carry fresh-frozen chicken backs and necks. Bulk chicken backs can also be ordered fresh-frozen in 5lb. bags. Tripe is available in 1 or 2 lb. frozen packages.
Like our name suggests, Bones are an important element in a dog’s meal plan. Most of our dinners already have crushed bones in the food. We also carry those hard to find recreational bones. (Tip: never give your dog a cooked bone.)

Cat Products
Cats are obligate carnivores, which means that meat and the nutrients derived from it are necessary for survival. Raw meat, bones and vegetables are the best food for cats to digest for optimum health. If your cat did catch a mouse, rat, bird etc. there would be a high level of protein (over 70%) in the form of raw muscle meats, bones & organs, and there would be a low percentage of grains, fruits or veggies already predigested in the stomach contents. The meal would be moist, not dry like kibble. Cats require moist foods as they are "programmed" to get their fluids from their food, they are not born with the instinct to drink. A kibble fed cat becomes chronically dehydrated and will never be able to drink enough fluid to make up for that. This state of health will eventually lead to illness. A raw fed cat will rarely drink as they get their fluids from their food - this is the natural way for a cat to live.
Following are the suppliers that we have in the store for quality raw cat food. The food is purchased frozen. To feed your cat simply thaw and serve.
Here are some excellent resources for finding out more about optimal feeding for your feline friend:
