Aurora

By Ryan on May 17, 2016

I'm lucky and my dog has no health issues or allergies. I did have one huge problem. She HATED kibble.

Feeding her raw and doing so with such a great company like Hare-Today has made her eating food so much more enjoyable. I love watching her eating bones and have that smiling look as she's eating. I will never go back to processed foods.
Thank you Hare-Today!



Very Pleased

By Kathryn on May 17, 2016

We made our first order for our 10 year old German shepherd, and 8 year old jackapoo.

Since we live close enough, we drove to visit with Tracy and pickup our order. The operation is spick and span clean, and very well organized.

Tracy is a wonderful reference for the raw feeder. The dogs loved the ground turkey with organs and bones, as well the beef/venison mix. What they really loved were the ground sardines!

The meats are well packaged, fresh, and visually appealing.. You couldn't ask for more. Just made another order today!



Rescue Newfoundland

By MJ on May 17, 2016

My sweet Rescue Newfoundland was someone's service dog. She had been through heck when I got her.

She was hairless and weighed about 52 lbs. She had Pemphigus and the all the lesions that accompany this auto immune disease. She also got Cushing's, Calcinosis cutis, hypothyroid disease, two ruptured cruciates, and pancreatitis....all from the meds to control her Phemphigus.

We've come a long way. She is raw fed and no longer on immune suppressants. She is a rabbit fed dog and a happy happy healthy water Newfoundland. And she is our miracle.

Pictures are two of her upon intake into rescue, all her meds after 2 weeks at vet and last is of her today. Kiera's rescue took a lot of people, a lot of support and she has her own FB page to stay in touch with her supporters. Thx



Better Quality of Life

By Jacklyn on May 11, 2016

This is the story of my cat, Fionn:
In August of 2014, my younger sister brought home a box of kittens she found left next to a dumpster outside of where she worked. For the first few weeks, we cared for them, and nursed them to health, until they were ready to go to their new homes.

However, one of the kittens, a little male orange tabby, was not doing well at all. He was much smaller than his litter mates, and wasn't eating well, and he vomited all the time. After blood work and x-rays were done, the vet suspected he might have a foreign body stuck in his intestines, and at just 8 weeks old, he underwent surgery. No foreign body was found, though, and after surgery, he continued to be a "poor do-er".

After many LONG (and expensive) months of seeing different vets, even an internal medicine specialist, and so many tests, we finally had some diagnosis-es for the poor little guy, who I of course ended up keeping, because I didn't want to send such a sickly kitten to a new home.

He was diagnosed with megaesophagus and pituitary dwarfism. While megaesophagus is seen occasionally in cats, there is no cure for it, but there are things that can be done to help them. Pituitary dwarfism, on the other hand, in incredibly rare in cats- there are only a few documented cases of it around the world. Unfortunately for me and Fionn. this means that there is also incredibly little information out there about it, or how to care for cats with it. The only thing any of the vets seem to be able to tell me consistently is "poor long term prognosis".

Obviously, pituitary dwarfism is caused by a malfunctioning pituitary gland- which could be cause by trauma, or just because of genetics. His body does not produce the normal amount of growth hormones. Basically, Fionn is about the size of a 2-3 month old kitten. He has his adult teeth, though they came in very late, but still has his "kitten coat"- he never grew adult cat fur. The theory is that the lack of hormones affect not just his size, but his organ function as well. The biggest worry his is heart.

When I first heard "poor long term prognosis" I was very upset. I spent a lot of time crying about the likely early death of a kitty I had come to love so much. Though he was with me, and doing okay at the time, I couldn't help but focus on the thought of losing him too young. But eventually, I decided that, while he's here, I'm going to do everything I can to make sure he stays healthy for as long as possible. Of course, the first place to start is nutrition!

Because Fionn is so little, he's always had a very hard time with dry kibble. He's tried to eat it before, but gave up pretty quickly, and now shows no interest in it. That meant I searched for the best quality canned food I could get. He was doing okay on the canned food, but as I was tirelessly searching for more information, I came across information about raw feeding. I was interested, and did some research on it. I decided to give it a try, and bought some different kinds of pre-made raw commercial diets.

I was a bit surprised that Fionn took to it so well! From the day I started with it, he hasn't looked at canned food again. After using the commercial raw diets for a few months, and still doing research, I came across quite a few recommendations for a website called Hare Today Gone Tomorrow. Many raw feeders I was in contact with highly recommended making your own raw food instead of buying the commercial diets, and they sung the praises for this company.

I got my first order in January of this year, and I was surprised at how much I actually enjoyed mixing and making food for Fionn. I felt really good about it, knowing exactly what my little boy was eating. So now it's been 5 months since Fionn has been eating food from here, and I can not believe how well he's doing! He's finally putting on some weight (he's a whole 3 pounds now), his regurgitation/vomiting instances are way down, and he's more active than he's ever been. And most important of all, he absolutely LOVES his food. He eats so well now!

Fionn is about 2 months away from his second birthday. A year and a half ago, I wasn't sure I'd see that day. Now I have hope that he may have quite a few more birthdays to come.

I can't thank Hare Today Gone tomorrow enough for providing us with such great quality products, so that our babies can have the best quality of life.



Duncan & Mabel

By Alyssa on May 11, 2016

I started my raw feeding journey on shaky terms, not quite knowing what I was doing in the beginning but determined to do what I believe was best for my furry kids.

Hare Today was super helpful and easy in aiding in my journey to get where I am today. All of their products are fantastic, and once I got settled into a good groove feeding my two dogs raw, I began starting our family's cats on it too.

Hare Today's ground was essential in switching our picky wet food addicted cats to raw, as it was simple to slowly add more ground, and less canned food over time.

Now all of our furry family members are on raw, and love it! Not only do they love it, they've flourished! Totally recommend making the switch, it's worth it, and Hare Today makes it easy!



Cats Are Thriving

By Aaralyn on May 10, 2016

I have 5 cats, but I only started out feeding one of my cats all raw. One of my cats, Sammi, has/had terrible allergies, and no food I tried would help him. His hair would fall out, he'd get sores, scabs he was so itchy and miserable. My vet suggested switching to a protein he'd never had, which was rabbit. She did not recommend feeding him a raw diet because of his compromised immune system (medications), but it's something I had been looking into, and decided to do it and keep an eye on him.

His allergies did not improve a ton on the rabbit alone, but I started doing more research and determined that probiotics are important for immune health. I began supplementing his rabbit with probiotics, and he is pretty much cured now. He still itches a little bit, but no more sores or hair falling out. When I stop the probiotics, he starts getting scabs again.

I know that the rabbit DOES help, because I have tried feeding him raw ground chicken with the probiotics, and he does not do well with that. I would encourage you to switch to a raw diet and add probiotics as well.

I started feeding all 5 of my cats raw rabbit after one of my male cats spasmed and could no longer eliminate. He needed to have reconstructive surgery to widen his urethra, and I am convinced that he would not have gotten a UTI, which further complicated the issue, if he had been eating the raw food, which I add a lot of water to.

So now all 5 cats eat the raw, whole carcass ground rabbit. Although I have read that it is good to rotate proteins, I have found that my cats do best on the rabbit. They like it the best. They vomit up the beef, they refuse to eat the eggs or anchovies, or really anything but the rabbit. It's better than dry commercial food, so I am not going to complain! It is expensive, but they rarely vomit, they don't poop as much, and I know they are healthier and getting a ton of water to keep their kidneys working.



Simply the Best...

By Jennifer on May 7, 2016

Hare Today's meats are simply the best! Fresh from the farm, is what i tell people. My 3 cats all just love their raw meals, and enjoy them while also having excellent energy and great health.

Our orders always arrive with the meats still 'rock-hard' frozen, both 5 pound and 1 pound chubs. Everything has been carefully packed into the package.

Thank you, Hare Today, for making available such high quality meats for our beloved pets!



My kitties

By Maritza on May 5, 2016

Yesterday I receive my my raw meat package for my babies.
I decided to feed them the Venison which they never ate before. All of my cats loved it. This is the second shipment that I had purchase from hare today. My cats loved the venison. I finally found a place were I can buy a variety of raw meat for my babies and have it shipped.



Favorite new item!!!!

By Kate on May 4, 2016

GREEN TRIPE STICKS!! My dogs go crazy over them. Dehydrated rabbit ears have been the favorite for quite sometime now. Always looking for healthy snacks to keep the girls busy. Both these are great!! Granted neither last a long time - but don't get in their way !
The green tripe definitely a favorite. Have to buy multiple bags at a time, so we don't run out. We keep the bunny ears on the freezer.



My puppy LOVES raw!

By Nancy on May 4, 2016

My 6 year old golden has been on raw since he was a puppy, and now the new addition to our family is, too!
Both dogs LOVE mealtime! The puppy is growing beautifully, and on the raw diet, is almost 5# heavier than his brothers and sisters who are not on raw.

Can't say enough good things about it....and Hare today packs the meat so well....never a worry about it spoiling in transit!
