All animals can benefit from the wholesome goodness of well balanced nutrition from natural sources. Scientific studies continue to show that diets rich in fruits and vegetables are associated with the prevention of several chronic diseases. To produce good skin and coat you have to feed more human grade meat and higher quality sources of fats, and oils. Living foods like fruits and vegetables can be used for snacks and a rotation of diet are essential to good health. If you where to fed/eat only dehydrated grain based food substitutes you would be nutrient deficient. If I remember high school history class correctly we learned how the people on the Mayflower had scurvy due to lack of fresh fruits like oranges. Why do we believe today that dogs can live a healthy life with only one dehydrated food fed twice a day every day until they go home to heaven? Good Marketing is my answer. After World War2 dog food was invented. Before World War2 Dogs ate food from mother earth like us. Humans created dog food, cat food, rabbit food, the list goes on but what I question is why did food from the earth stop being food for all animals of the earth to eat? I'm not saying not to feed natural kibble diets. It is my opinion you need to rotate often add water to the kibble and living foods to the over all diet. DO NOT FEED DIETS with meat protein substitutes, by product, inexpensive fillers, or chemical preservatives. Many of the Kibble and Canned Diets found at Pet Supply Chain Stores and Grocery Stores contain inexpensive fillers or other meat protein substitutes that are hidden behind the word natural on the packaging and misleading advertising. Wholesome frozen raw meat diets are:
What about E-coli and other bacteria? Dogs are scavengers and cats are true carnivores. Their teeth and short digestive systems are designed for raw meat. They can thrive in the presence of microbes potentially dangerous to humans. Raw Diets do not contain guts, it's in the guts you find bacteria. Remember Dogs dig up old bones, Cats eat mice. Frozen Raw Diets have been safely fed to pets for many generations. Raw frozen diets provide excellent, biologically appropriate nutrition for your pets. Because these products are highly perishable, proper handling is important as some raw food products may contain bacteria that could cause illness to you or your pets if the products are mishandled. (dry kibble is also perishable and could cause illness) For your protection please follow these instructions for safest use of raw.
Raw Meaty Bones are great for satisfying your pet's natural desire to chew and exercising jaws, especially for puppies. Helping to keep the teeth clean and stimulate the gums bones provide an all natural source of glucosamine for arthritis/joint pain. Bones serve as a calcium source in your homemade diet. Bones stretch your food budget without compromising quality nutrition. Replace some of your pet's normal daily diet with an equal amount of raw meaty bones, up to 50%. Let your pet enjoy an occasional whole meal of raw meaty bones. perhaps once or twice a week, keep the overall amount of food per day the same as always; just substitute some raw meaty bones for usual kibble, homemade, or pre-made raw diet. Always supervise your pet no matter how much experience you have with feeding bones, if your pet doesn't know what to do with a raw meaty bones try holding one end with a pair of pliers. For a small dog or cat you may want to chop the raw meaty bones into smaller pieces. let puppies or kittens tackle oversized bones; they can't coke/ and they will have lots of fun! For older pets, the use of enzymes and/or probiotics may be beneficial. Never cook raw meaty bones, cooking will make the bones splintery and dangerous.
