About Embark On Raw The Natural Pet Food Store

Embark On Raw is a very unique small family run Essex business specialising in raw natural food and treats for dogs and cats. We stock many ranges including our own and we look forward to welcoming you to out store.

Embark On Raw The Natural Pet Food Store Description

Embark On Raw started because we were not happy with the commercial dog food products that were available to us.

Embark On Raw is much more than just a business for us; it was founded through our interest in looking after the diets of our own dogs and knowing what we had made a difference.

We will always take time to help our customers with questions as our journey has led us to have a detailed understanding of the dietary requirements for dogs, highlighting the pitfalls of feeding many of the conventional dry and tinned foods on the market today.

Since then it has gone from strength to strength, supplying very happy customers in parts of Essex and surrounding area's. We have for many years been advocates of raw feeding, we have seen the beauty and benefits first hand and what it has done for our beloved dogs.

We have what we believe to be, complete and nutritionally balanced range of natural raw dog food. All ingredients have been chosen to maximise nutrition and for all of the health benefits they provide.

Our range is Embark On Raw, Natural Instinct, Nutriment, Benyfit Natural, Purrform for Cats and a lovely selection of raw meaty treats, bones and natural treats.

Anyone would think we just cuddle puppies all day! These gorgeous little Frenchies are Ian and Nancy and they are bred and owned by Linda and Ray. The best part is that Mum and babies have been fed from Embark On Raw, they really are an absolute picture of health and we did not want to give them back! thank you Linda for bringing them in and we look forward to seeing them grow ❤️❤️

Dermadog says........
A kinder approach to canine health"
Times are changing. People are becoming more mindful of the ingredients contained in the products they use, where they come from and the effect they have on the environment around us. This mindfulness is trickling down into how we care for our animals, too. An increasing awareness of good pet health and nutrition is, in turn, increasing demand and preference for products such as raw food, and brands that use naturally derived ingredients, over of the heavily processed, chemical-laden alternatives we’ve been more accustomed to these last few decades. At Dermadog , we pride ourselves on creating products using sustainable ingredients that are free from harsh chemicals, parabens, synthetic dyes and artificial fragrances. Our products are non-toxic, chemical-free, drug-free, eco friendly and minimally packaged using recyclable materials. Good for your dog, good for you and good for our environment.

What an amazing company with incredible products. Andrea has been so helpful from day one of ordering. Always answering any queries I have and always giving great advice. Lola can’t get enough of your own brand food. Her bowl is licked clean after every meal! I’m so glad I was recommended your company by a friend!

User

What a great company I've asked lots of questions and each time they answer straight away

Very very helpful Bentley loves the food as well

We stumbled across embark on raw whilst on our way to a pet supplier, i'd been reading up on raw feeding and couldn't decide where or how to go about introducing Reggie our labradoodle puppy to the raw feeding. Dave was on hand with excellent advice and a special feeing sheet to start us off with and a free extra batch of food. I had changed Reggie's diet too quickly when we got him home so he had a runny belly ( before we discovered embark)so Andrea gave me some fantastic advice on how to transition and immediately he took to it no problem. She gave us some excellent advice on the crate ( as i was only partially covering it at night) so i pulled the sheet down at the front leaving ventilation and he slept brilliantly. The food is excellent quality (looks good enough for human consumption )and Reggie loves it. It's also a good price too if you're on a budget. Andrea and Dave obviously love dogs and are really knowledgeable, their advice has been invaluable when it comes to being a newbie in the world of 🐕. I've recommended them to other dog owners too. Great business and couldn't have found it at a better time.

We started our newfound Gunner on this raw food diet by embark on raw over a month ago and he loves it!! Such variety and looks great even if I do say so myself (except maybe the smell of the tripe) Our dog can be a bit fussy but he seems to love all the flavours!!

Best of all they deliver to our door!!

Such friendly, helpful and lovely people!!

Would definitely recommend ����

We recently transferred our Labrador pup onto raw feed as he was getting bored of the same day to day kibble even after trying different brands and flavours. Not knowing too much about raw feeding i was recommended to Embark on Raw by my fellow dog owner friends so me and my wife decided to take a trip there one weekend.



When we arrived at the shop we were kindly greeted by the the staff who were lovely and polite to us and made us feel comfortable. We went on to discussing more in detail about the benefits of their products and the advantages of raw feeding. They were very knowledgeable and gave great advice but most importantly they were not being pushy for us to buy their products. After our conversation ended and once we were satisfied we decided to give 2 weeks worth of raw feed a try.



It's now been 3 months since we started raw/natural food and we would not look back, our lab absolutely loves his food and treats that we buy from this shop and see myself being a regular customer to Embark on Raw for many years to come.

So stumbled upon a new (been there a little while but completely new to us) raw dog food place today with Charlee Wakerley so we of course had to go and investigate and WOW I cannot highly recommend them enough from the moment we walked in with such a friendly welcome and the amazing personal service and finding people soo passionate about the health and well being of your individual needs. Blow away with there generous goodies they gave us to try and can say I will 100% be back. Dogs loved there sample

Thank you very much indeed xxx

Popped in this morning for the 1st time, lovely and welcoming with a fab selection of raw! I will definitely be back to stock up instead of ordering elsewhere.

Our Cockpoo Arlo has been on a raw diet always his 6&1/2 months old he is absolutely loving the Embark on Raw own range and excuse pun woofs it down even looking for more .. thanks Dave & staff for your helpfulness �� ��

Our Beagle puppy had suddenly been struck down with an aggressive form of meningitis which resulted in an exhausting 2 weeks of visiting the vets and a weeks stay at the Animal Health Trust in Newmarket. We finally have her home but we still have a long way to go with 18 months of steroids and chemo ahead. We wanted to give her the best chance of a full recovery and started to research ways to compliment her treatment.

A friend recommended Embark on Raw. I rang them and Dave answered, within seconds his passion radiated down the phone line and I was hooked, he was so caring, passionate about making a difference and super knowledgeable. I made a visit to Embark that same day and saw Dave. He was truly brilliant, and was just as enthusiastic and genuine in real life. He explained all the benefits again in detail and set me up with a meal plan to get Betsie started on her Raw journey. Once home I fed our poorly pup and she demolished the food. Within 3 days our puppy was back, bright eyes and wagging tail. So if you’re sitting on the fence on whether to feed raw, do not hesitate and pay Dave & his team a visit today, you won’t be disappointed. I feel cheated by the big dog food manufacturers that have hoodwinked us for too long by offering food that basically is full of rubbish. Thank you Dave, thank you for all your advice and caring about making a difference, Betsie thinks your Pawsome !

Just been into the shop for the first time as I’ve taken on a cat which is ex breeding queen, been fed on raw all her life. Me I’ve had cats for over 20 years but never done raw. Completely naive with raw feeding. Got lots of info and advice this morning in the shop. Thank you so much. See you next week.

I just want to say a big WOW to the

embark on raw

shop which supplies our bows Doggy food

Since using only raw food for her diet her coat has been Silky smooth and shiny and also her eyes seem a lot brighter and her overall health seems to have improved.

As for the tastes she loves it! And she devours every single last bite.

The shop itself is fantastic and super trendy with all naturally and locally sourced treats snacks and accessories which are really cool.

The customer service is brilliant and the food is inexpensive for the time it lasts.

Bow is one happy Doggy and she loves her dried sprats and chicken sticks �����

I have a dog with liver problems and have done so much research into making her raw food suitable for her condition, but wondered if I could find a ready made complete especially for when I'm away.

I did a search online and found Embark on Raw - I'm so glad I did! I went yesterday and I was honestly in 7th heaven with the the choice available and met David ( and his lovely Mum) who is so enthusiastic and passionate about raw feeding. He gave me really good advice and because I've done so much research I knew that he is a real expert on nutrition, he was telling me everything I've found out online and I felt relieved that I can just ask a real person anything I need to know.

I left with everything I needed for my 6 beloved dogs secure in the knowledge that they are eating the best I can give them. They had their first meal tonight, not only did it look great they absolutely loved it. I am a very, very happy person!! It's so great to talk to someone who is totally on your side �

Have been feeding my dogs raw for several yes but just discovered Embark on Raw on my doorstep (well half hour drive) Fantastic range of goods and knowledgeable, helpful staff. Will be visiting regularly.

Embark on Raw were recommended to us by a fellow dog walker and I have nothing but great things to say about them. Dave and Andrea are fantastic they take the time to listen and help with which food option to choose for your circumstances. Our 3 year old Rottweiler has injuries to both back legs and due to being on restricted exercise needed to lose 10kg for her own health. With the help and knowledge from Andrea and Dave we're so pleased that Roxy has already lost 6kg. The special diet they put her on worked wonders for her and she's now allowed to go for longer walks and although Roxy has always been excitable she now gets around so much better. Her coat shines and she looks much thinner. Thank you Andrea and Dave for all your help in helping us with our fur baby. I would highly recommend Embark on Raw to any dog owner not just for special diets but for any raw diet.

User

Embark on Raw offer fantastic advice and stock the best products, all dished up with extremely friendly service. Can’t recommend them enough.

Brought my fussy little monkey into see you yesterday as for the past 3 months she has hardly eaten anything. Changed over to raw at 9 weeks but lately it has been a daily battle and worry about her not eating. Slightly pessimistic I went away with some of your home made completes and today Luna has eaten breakfast and dinner!! Early days but so happy right now
