About sure4pets

We’re sure4pets. A group of pet-loving fanatics driven to help pets live longer, happier and healthier lives with raw food.

How We Came About

At sure4pets, the health and well-being of your pets is our number one priority. This is why we champion a Species Appropriate Raw Food (SARF™) diet to help your pets thrive, rather than just survive.

Our mission to spread the good word about raw food started in 2014 when Gareth, our Director, opened up shop in Barnsley, South Yorkshire. Before starting, Gareth went through his own journey from dry to raw dog food with his British bulldogs, Oli and Charlie. Charlie, unfortunately, faced a premature death, leading Gareth to realise that poor diet on top of unnecessary treatments was the cause.

Gareth made the change to raw food initially with Oli and saw the benefits, however over the past 10 years, he has realised that the way to true health is with the SARF™ diet.  Which not only supplies a food that’s raw and is specific to the species, it also mimics nature and how the dog as a wolf would eat in the wild. 12 years later, Oli continues to go on strong – all thanks to healthy, species-appropriate nutrition.

Our Mission

We want to encourage and help more people understand the benefits of a SARF™ diet and how it can benefit pets in the long run. We live by our motto: “It’s about the health of the pet, nothing more, nothing less.” We work to understand the root causes of poor health and find a resolution by improving pets’ mineral and nutritional needs.

A poor diet can do more damage than you think. So our mission is to help pet lovers take a natural approach to feeding, helping improve their pet’s quality of life now and in the years ahead.

What our Customers Say

The Birth of sure4pets

Initially sure4pets was started around three years after Oli came into our lives in 2011. He was raw fed when we collected him from the breeder and would wolf his raw mince meal down. However, initially due to my lack of knowledge at that time my ignorance, we switched Oli over to kibble food and what we thought (because of advertisements) was a “complete and balanced diet”. How wrong were we?!

The main reason behind the creation of sure4pets at this stage was to provide health and wellbeing to all dogs and cats through a SARF™ diet, which we complimented with natural products (air dried treats), natural toys and hard wearing accessories.

The Evolution of sure4pets

The progression of sure4pets evolving into health and an understanding of the body along with disease amongst other things came from sad circumstances. Charlie our British bulldog, was introduced to the family when Oli was around 1 year old and after Charlie initially being vet checked by the breeders vet as healthy, he was diagnosed by our vet two weeks after his final vaccinations with a type 4 heart murmer (which he had apparently grown into?!)

Although the murmer never bothered Charlie or interfered with his very playful boisterous character or with our long walks which he would participate in easily. He would make me laugh picking up sticks or branches rather along the way, he enjoyed it thoroughly, (I could tell the way he walked, with a hop in his step and a smile on his face), although the murmer was always in the back of our minds.
