Why it’s important your dog has a healthy diet
Dog’s aren’t just your pet, they’re your friend, family member, and so much more! You want to make sure your pet has a healthy and long life, and giving them a healthy diet will help to accomplish that.
Feeding your dog a healthy diet provides a host of health and wellness benefits, including:
- Disease prevention: A balanced and healthy diet helps to prevent diseases such as obesity, diabetes, and heart disease. These diseases most commonly occur when a dog isn’t receiving the right amount of necessary nutrients.
- Increases lifespan: When your dog is receiving the right amount of nutrients they need, it helps them to live happier, healthier, and longer.
- Improves digestive system: A balanced and healthy diet helps to reduce the risk of digestive problems such as bloating, constipation, and diarrhea.
So, what should you feed your dog to encourage a healthy lifestyle? Opt for a raw diet.
Why raw dog food?
When it comes to feeding your furry friends, you should approach their food the way you would your own:
- Does your dog’s food contain natural, human-grade ingredients including meats, veggies, and healthy fats?
- Is your dog’s food heavily processed? (Kibble can be packed with carbs, sugars, preservatives, and grains.)
- Will your dog’s food provide the necessary nutrients to maintain optimal health?
Raw diets consist of meats like liver, muscle meat, organ meat, fish and eggs; small amounts of vegetables like zucchini and spinach; healthy fats such as sunflower seed oil; and supplements such as vitamins and minerals. This combination of raw food provides your pup with all the nutrients their body needs.
Doesn’t raw dog food have to be refrigerated or frozen?
Yes! Oftentimes, paw-rents will turn to dry kibble for ease of storage, but that long shelf life is due to preservatives, which can negatively impact your dog’s health. The benefit of using real, raw ingredients is that your dog’s food is made fresh weekly, and you know exactly what is in it.
