Improved Oral Hygiene and Teeth
Periodontal disease is a very common reason for vet visits these days. See how feeding raw can improve your dog's oral hygiene and teeth, and help to prevent build up of tartar, tooth decay and bad breath.
Optimum Digestion and Metabolism For Dogs
There are several important stages to digestion, from food entering the mouth, to waste being expelled as faeces. A highly digestible food is one which your dog can absorb more nutrients from and in turn this produces less waste. The functions of the digestive system can be divided into 4 main categories: digestion, absorption of nutrients, motility: moving through the digestive tract, and elimination of faeces.
Reduced Allergies and Intolerances
Allergies and intolerances in dogs and humans have soared since the introduction of processed foods. Cheap grains are mass produced with the use of pesticides and harmful chemicals.
Better Behaviour - Less Hyperactivity
Behaviour and mood are most definitely influenced by good diet and gut health. Many dogs who have switched to a raw diet have almost instantly changed to become more focused in training, less anxious and generally calmer and more content.
