Founder Of Cali Raw Nutrition
Cali Raw Nutrition was founded in 2018 by an avid life-long dog mom & entrepreneur, passionate about holistic health & natural medicine. Brandine grew up in a family of dog lovers & pretty much hasn't gone a day without dogs around since she was 5.
Her first dog as an adult, was Clyde. He was a golden long-haired chihuahua with a chocolate brown nose, romantic eyes & the most charming personality. Clyde was deeply loved and spoiled beyond measure, but he was fed kibble his whole life. As a young twenty-something Brandine didn't know any better at the time. Like so many of us, she didn't think to question the norm until it was too late.
After battling a long list of health problems, including canine cognitive disfunction & eventually loosing Clyde to kidney failure, she immediately began to rethink the "dog food" she was feeding her other 2 dogs. Astonished by what she found when researching dog nutrition & holistic health for dogs, she now understood why Clyde had years of health problems and ultimately succumb to them. She also now knew why her 2 year old Pitbull had skin allergies & digestive problems, as well as why her 10 year old Chi-weenie was quite overweight & lethargic. Without hesitation Brandine switched them both to a raw diet.
As expected, their health completely turned around. They flourished. Energy levels increased, skin allergies went away, weight improved, digestion problems ceased, plus their stool became smaller, firmer & less stinky. Both dogs also loved their new diet, finally licking their bowls clean with enthusiasm. In less than 30 days, her dogs were very thriving in ways they never had on a kibble diet.
Deeply regretful that she didn't know until it was too late for Clyde, she felt compelled to educate her friends and family about the dangers of feeding a kibble diet. It didn't stop there, her passion grew rapidly and eventually she decided to use her entrepreneurial talent to build a company with a meaningful & impactful purpose, a company that would change the world one dog at a time.
When Brandine joined forces with our seasoned animal diet formulator, James Pendergast, his experience & deep understanding of dog nutrition coupled with her entrepreneurial talent made for aforce of good for dogs everywhere. Cali Raw Nutrition has quickly became a recognized supplier of home delivery raw dog food nationwide. Together, Brandine & James continue to push the raw dog food movement to new heights.
Brandine has 3 dogs, including Clyde's original partner in crime, Capone the Chi-weenie. The princess of the bunch is Dharma, she's a rescue Pitbull. Her sidekick and center part is Bodhi, the comedic French Bulldog who was a Christmas present for Dharma in 2017. Brandine has been a long time resident of the Costa Mesa & Newport Beach communities since graduating college. She is passionately devoted to the mission of Cali Raw and helping others to enhance their dog's health & longevity with a fresh raw diet.
Director of Communications & Managing Partner
Molly first came to Cali Raw Nutrition in 2019 as a recent college graduate looking to get her foot in the door of the natural pet food industry as a marketing assistant. With her high quality standards, positive mindset, people skills & creative thinking, she found herself learning & thriving within the company right away.
Molly's passion for dogs combined with her massive appetite for knowledge & growth, lead her to move her way up from a Marketing Assistant to a Manager & now into a Director role, as a Managing Partner. In January 2022, Molly became an owner of the company, by way of massive dedication & hard work.
While Molly primarily heads our Customer Care department, she also contributes to the overall success of the company in helping to lead both the Operations & Marketing teams. She embodies the heart and mission of the company & leads the team in staying focused on what matters most, your dogs.
If you've ever been to our Newport Beach location or called our office, you've probably been greeted by Molly's glowing energy and sweet temperament. We're extremely lucky to have her on the team, leading the growth that helps us improve the health & longevity of our dogs with a truly healthy dog food.
