A big THANK YOU to Open Farm, a very popular brand in all Unleashed locations, for sponsoring our Kid Zone and Egg Hunt tote bags this year at Spring Fling.


Bounce Houses at Spring Fling

Thanks to Open Farm's generous sponsorship, we will have super-fun bounce houses for the kiddos, plus outdoor games and a coloring contest for the young at heart. All ages are welcome to play the games and compete in the coloring contest- there will be age categories! Look for the coloring pages, designed by local designers, near the bounce houses and the main stage!

Be sure to Pre-Register for the Egg Hunt to secure your spot and get your bag! Several time slots have already sold out, so don't delay!


Now, back to our sponsor: OPEN FARM!


Open Farm is a favorite in all of our Unleashed stores. With options for cats and dogs from dry, to canned, to freeze dried and even bone broth and treats, there is an Open Farm product for every pet.


Open Farm has always prioritized sourcing meat that meets comprehensive animal welfare standards, ensuring that farm animals are treated with care and respect. This commitment not only promotes happier, healthier livestock but also results in higher-quality ingredients that pet owners can trust.


Beyond ethical sourcing, they take responsibility for their environmental impact, recognizing the importance of sustainable practices in pet food production. Their brand has made ambitious commitments across regenerative agriculture, carbon footprint reduction, and recyclable packaging, all aimed at creating a more sustainable future.


Open Farm is dedicated to transparency, ensuring that pet owners have access to all the information they need about what goes into their pet’s bowl. For every bag of Open Farm, they provide:

No antibiotics ever with cat

  • Geographic origin of every ingredient


  • Safety test results for each product


  • Third-party certification details


  • Carbon emissions associated with each product







Here's how their story started...


"When I rescued my first dog, Bella, I set out to find a natural, nutritious pet food that would help her grow happy, healthy and strong – and that aligned with my personal values. But at the time, it seemed every option was full of ingredients that seemed to compromise my animal welfare, sustainability and transparency standards. As an animal lover, not only did I want to provide my pet with the highest quality food, but I also wanted to ensure that it was made ethically, sourced from humane family farms that treated their animals with respect. I was disappointed in the options that were available, so alongside my husband Isaac and brother-in-law Derek, we started to explore what it would take to develop a pet food that met our standards – knowing there were likely many others who were seeking the same.


After years of research and hard work, we started Open Farm. Our goal was to do more than just change what our pet food contained; we wanted to completely rethink the way it was made. For us, that meant not only sourcing the highest quality ingredients, but also supporting farmers who treat their animals right, and providing full transparency to our customers.


It’s out of that vision that Open Farm was born—from the simple idea that pet food can both be good for your pet and do some good for farm animals and the environment, all at the same time."


-Jacqueline & Issac

About OC RAW


OC Raw, also known as Olivia’s Canines is a family-owned business born from a personal mission of making the best possible nutritious natural food for their dogs for a reasonable cost


OC Raw believes in simple basics. They are passionate dog enthusiasts with a special love of miniature English bulldogs and Spanish Mastiffs. The local OC Raw customer base grew out of demand from fellow bulldog and mastiff loving enthusiasts, their friends and family, and word of mouth. Their humble beginnings were family get-togethers on the driveway to now manufacturing the food in a commercial kitchen certified and inspected by the CA Department of Food and Agriculture.


OC Raw Food Bowl

Their experience with dogs drove the formulations to have a purpose - more than just a balanced and complete diet. Each formulation includes a foundational blend of fruits and vegetables, such as carrots, apples, broccoli, spinach, acorn squash, beets, parsley, and blueberries, to meet the nutritional guidelines set by AAFCO. These ingredients are incorporated in consistent ratios, allowing for an easy transition between formulations.


The lamb is densest and designed to put good healthy weight on relatively fast when fed 3% of body weight. The Turkey & Produce contains the highest protein and lowest fat to build strong lean muscle mass on both young and old athletic dogs.


Why OC Raw?


Like you, the team at OC Raw loves their pets and wants to keep them healthy! Which is why one of the most important decisions is what to feed them. OC Raw is dedicated to simple basics. They have created complete and balanced products that are made from whole food nutrition. Each batch is made fresh to order, with machine help and packed by hand. Their ingredients are thoughtfully sourced with ingredients that are of only the best quality. All products are made in the OC Raw family-owned pet food commercial kitchen. Their brand is dedicated to making a difference in pets' lives with happy mealtimes and healthier lives!


"Better Ingredients, Better Food, Healthier Pets."

FUN FACT: According to the University of Helsinki’s DogRisk research, incorporating as little as 20% raw food into a dog's diet provides significant health benefits, particularly in preventing allergies and atopy-related skin symptoms. A little goes a long way 🥳!
