Raw food is certainly the best choice for your pet. eg problems with inflammation of the anal sacs, gastritis, diarrhea, allergies, etc. Visits to the vet are usually reduced to vaccinations.
2. Longevity
Dogs that eat raw and all-natural food live longer and are healthier because nutrition greatly affects the quality of life. And it is certainly in the interest of every dog owner that his furry friend stays with him as long as possible. Genetics is something we cannot influence, but we can influence lifestyle with a special emphasis on nutrition!
3. When you feed your dog raw food, you know exactly what your dog is eating.
All the ingredients used in the preparation of a raw meal are well known to you. There are no strange chemical substances that you are not sure what they are, and when you google them, you understand why they are used, for example, in the textile industry, but not how and why they ended up in your dog's food. There are also no ingredients that do not sound at all 'appetizing', such as animal products. Have you ever wondered what that means?
4. Dogs are very happy to eat raw food.
In addition to the fact that raw food is the best form of nutrition for dogs, it is additionally delightful that dogs love it, love its taste and smell. There is no need to add taste and smell enhancers to raw meals so that dogs eat that food with great pleasure. Even the most picky eaters bow before a bowl full of delicious raw meat!
5. Raw food is extremely easy to digest.
Owners notice this fact almost immediately when they start feeding the dog raw food. Due to the exceptional digestibility of raw food, the dog's stool is very small and compact (exactly the way it should be in carnivores).
6. Glossy, lush coat without unpleasant smell.
Another difference that owners notice after switching their pet to raw is the shiny fur without that 'specific dog smell' and greasy feeling on the palms after petting the dog.
7. Dental health.
Dogs that eat raw food, especially if they occasionally eat raw bones (suitable for their size), have healthy teeth. Raw food does not stick to the teeth and gums, thus not creating a medium for the development of bacteria, plaque and tartar.
8. Proper development.
Puppies raised on raw food are recognizably strong and resistant organism, skeleton and teeth.
9. Prevention of gastric torsion.
Raw food in the stomach does not swell, does not change its volume, does not expand the stomach wall. The volume remains the same as it was in the pelvis, it is digested very quickly and leaves the stomach within about 4 hours. After raw food, dogs do not need to drink a large amount of water, as is the case after dry food.
10. Raw food is completely natural.
A properly prepared raw meal contains different foods combined in the correct proportions to achieve a complete meal that does not need to add any synthetic vitamins and minerals. It is very important to choose quality foods and respect the ratio in order to prepare a complete meal.
