AAFCO Certified for ALL Life Stages
In order for a food to be classified as, “all life stages”, it must pass a certain protocol used by the Association of American Feed Control Officials (AFFCO) to determine if a food has the nutrient content necessary to fully support the four stages of life; the gestation, lactation, growth and maintenance stages. Food with this classification may be used for a pet in any of these life stages so long as the correct amount is fed. SA-SHI by RAWZ foods meet these guidelines to be certified for all life stages.

The Heart of SA-SHI by RAWZ & 100% Profits Donated.
SA-SHI is produced by the RAWZ founding Scott family and, although difficult to talk about, they realize the importance and value behind sharing their personal inspiration and journey behind RAWZ.
In 2005, Jim and Janet Scott’s youngest son, Andrew, suffered a spinal cord injury from a fall and, less than a year later, their middle son, Jimmy, was in a horrific car crash and sustained a traumatic brain injury.
Their yellow lab, Boomer, was instrumental in their healing during there difficult times. Jimmy shares, “I know from my own experience, they’re not always great times in the early recovery. Boomer was my reason to get out of bed”.
The spiritual bonding with their four-legged friend was clear during this time of need and it was evident that the healing powers flowing from this animal to their human hearts and bodies was having an enormously positive impact. The Scott family knows these beautiful beings make a huge difference in everyone’s lives.
The Scott family knew that giving back wasn’t just a want - it was a feeling of something they were pulled to have to do and they feel blessed to be able to help others. They are passionately motivated and it is a fundamental part of everything they do.
”We have a belief in animals”, says Jim Scott, “they actually make a difference for people. A commitment to family. Those are the drivers for us.”
With full hearts, the Scott family and RAWZ recognize the greatness of animals and hope that all people and animals will experience this same gift. With that, they donate 100% of their profits to organizations that support service dogs, spinal cord injuries, and traumatic brain injuries. The Scott family and their extended RAWZ family, truly care about all pets and the meaningful impact they have on our lives.
It is this same love and devotion for animals that helps motivate the Scott family to continually strive to nourish pets with the high-quality nutrition they need and deserve.
