Results From The Canadian Raw Pet Food Testing Project

Testing results are being posted.

In November of 2020, TAPF announced a pet food testing project in Canada. Canada has no pet food regulations and no regulatory body overseeing products manufactured and sold in Canada.

Pet owners donated to the cause, led by veterinarian Karen Becker. And the results are now being released. Visit CheckYourPetFood.com to view results.

My thanks to any pet owner that donated to this cause. Independent testing of pet food is expensive, but is needed for transparency. And my thanks to Dr. Karen Becker, Dr. Laurie Coger, and others that volunteered to help with this project.

And Canada…how about implementing some regulations for pet food? Every Canadian pet owner pays sales tax on every pet food purchase providing significant revenue for the government. Those pet owners deserve safe and properly regulated pet food in return.


Wishing you and your pet(s) the best,

    Amazing work!

    Did you also test for different forms of bacteria, contamination and added dyes? I suspect Naturawls uses dyes in their meats which is very concerning.
