Our Story

At Raw Spirit Canine Nutrition, everything begins with love, loyalty, and a deep respect for dogs and the lives they share with us.

Founded by Kristie, an Advanced Canine Nutrition Specialist with more than 20 years of experience, Raw Spirit was born from a personal journey that changed the way she viewed canine health forever.

Like many dog owners, Kristie once believed she was doing everything right by feeding premium commercial diets. But after losing her beloved Labrador, Tahli, to cancer in 2018, she began questioning whether modern nutrition was truly supporting long-term canine health and wellbeing.

That heartbreak became the beginning of a new path.

Driven by a desire to understand how nutrition influences not only health, but quality of life, Kristie immersed herself in holistic canine care, species-appropriate nutrition, and the science of epigenetics - exploring how food, environment, and lifestyle can impact not just one dog, but future generations as well.

When she transitioned her Labradors to a natural raw diet, the results were impossible to ignore. Improved vitality, healthier coats, better digestion, enhanced fertility, and a noticeable difference in overall wellbeing reaffirmed what she had begun to believe so strongly:

Real food has the power to heal, nourish, and transform.

What started as a deeply personal mission soon evolved into Raw Spirit Canine Nutrition - a space dedicated to helping dog owners make informed, compassionate choices about their dogs’ health.

Today, Kristie combines professional knowledge with lived experience to support families on their own wellness journeys with their dogs. Her philosophy is simple: every dog deserves the opportunity to thrive naturally through species-appropriate nutrition, holistic care, and genuine support.

Raw Spirit is more than a business. It is a reflection of the bond between people and their dogs, built on trust, education, compassion, and community.

From consultations and nutritional support to carefully developed products and raw feeding guidance, everything we do is rooted in one goal:

To help dogs live healthier, happier, and longer lives - naturally.
