Naturally Digestible - The nutrients in raw food is more bioavailable for dogs to digest than commercially prepared food, allowing organs to absorb the necessary nutrients more efficiently. Raw pet food also naturally contains active enzymes that help a dog breakdown and consume nutrients. Without these enzymes, it’s harder for dogs to absorb starches, fats, and protein.

Healthy Skin and Coat - Poor nutrient absorption can result in dandruff, dry skin, and thin or coarse fur growth. After switching your pet to raw, you’ll notice a difference in their skin, coat, and how much less they shed!

Reduced Odor - When dogs eat food higher in fillers, additives, and preservatives, it can lead to that unpleasant ‘doggy odor’. Because of the benefits to your dog’s skin and coat the skin produces less odor filled oils.  Your pet’s digestive system is also better supported on a raw food diet, often decreasing or eliminating doggy gas.

 Reduced Allergies/Stronger Immune System - Diet is commonly accused of causing allergies in pets. Although, many assumed food allergies are really a result of intolerance piled on top of each other until the pet’s immune system can no longer defend the body. A main cause of stress on the immune system comes from poor gut health. Fillers used in commercially produced pet foods are not biologically meant for pets and can stress the digestive system which compromises the immune system. Over time, intolerances can intensify to allergic reactions. Hot spots, itchy paws, ear infections, and digestive and joint issues are all common allergic reactions. A natural diet can help reduce or eliminate your pet’s allergy symptoms.

Less Poo - Commercial pet foods often contain ingredients that are not a natural part of a dog’s diet. These ingredients are harder for your pet to break down, resulting in more waste (poop). The ingredients in raw pet food can be easily broken down and used for fuel, which means less becomes waste.

 Better Hydration - Raw food has a higher moisture content than commercially prepared pet food, resulting in better hydration for your pet. Since pets on a raw diet are getting hydration through their food, they tend to drink less water compared to their kibble-fed companions.

 Oral Health - Commercially produced pet food contains sugar which creates the ultimate environment for dangerous bacteria to grow, causing a number of dental problems in dogs. Kibble and canned food can also get stuck in your dog’s teeth, leading to plaque and tartar buildup. Raw food is less likely to stick to teeth and also contains naturally occurring enzymes which promote oral health. Providing occasional raw meaty bones is another way to improve your pet’s oral health!

 Increased Energy - A high-quality raw pet food does not contain excess ingredients and fillers, so less energy is needed for digesting carbs and sugars. After switching your dog to raw, you’ll likely notice a new pep in their step!
