Frequently Asked Questions
For twenty-five years, it was through the love of our own dogs as breeders, trainers and exhibitors that our formulas had been created, and the Right Start Pet Food was born.
A carefully formulated meal backed by a nutritional analysis, developed for all life stages as a species-appropriate complete and balanced diet.
Our formula had been fed to our own dogs from as early as 2006. As demands grew within our pet community, we made it official online in 2016.
It is a 100% natural raw food that is biologically appropriate for dogs and cats of all ages — Australian ethically sourced and approved human quality ingredients you can see and trust for your pet's health.
A bowl of freshness will be the most obvious; at Right Start, we are all about fresh food, and diet makes all the difference.

We suggest to always feed the desired amount to avoid waste. It is recommended for your dog to complete meal within a 10-15 minute window, this is ample time for them to complete the meal. Some breeds may take longer, this is perfectly fine; however if your dog walks away within the first few minutes, this is a clear indication your pet is not hungry, remove the meal, placing it back into the refrigerator.
Feeding a raw whole food diet is always best, offering the most nutrient-dense nutrition without depleting them from cooking or rendering down to a biscuit. Natural is always best; you will notice a significant difference in your pet's overall energy, behaviour and wellness from the Right Start diet. Dogs require a high-protein diet of raw meats made up of amino acids, which are the building blocks of life, providing them the energy, building and repair of cells and muscles while balancing hormones and immune function.
Any meat protein that is not tolerated by your dog should be avoided; some dogs may have a reaction to specific proteins, creating an allergy and or food intolerance.
