5 Top Tips Why Raw Is Biologically the Best Dog Food!

Raw dog food, also known as a biologically appropriate raw food (BARF) diet, has become increasingly popular in recent years as pet owners seek healthier and more natural options for their furry friends. This type of diet consists of raw meat, bones, organs, and fruits and vegetables.  

Why is raw better than cooked kibble? 

 Here are some of the benefits of feeding your dog a raw food diet: 
 

1. Better nutrition: Raw dog food contains all the essential nutrients that dogs need to thrive, including proteins, fats, vitamins, and minerals. It is free from fillers, preservatives, and artificial ingredients that are commonly found in commercial dog food. 
2. Improved digestion: Raw dog food is easier for dogs to digest because it is not cooked or processed. The natural enzymes and bacteria in raw food help to break down the ingredients, making it easier for dogs to absorb the nutrients. 
3. Stronger immune system: Raw dog food is rich in antioxidants, which help to boost the immune system and protect against disease and illness. Additionally, raw food contains higher levels of vitamins and minerals that support overall health and wellness. 
4. Better oral health: Chewing on bones and raw meaty bones helps to clean teeth and promote healthy gums. This can lead to fewer dental problems and improved overall oral health. 
5. Increased energy and vitality: Dogs that are fed a raw food diet often have more energy and vitality than dogs that are fed commercial dog food. This is because raw food provides a more balanced and nutritious diet that supports overall health and wellness. 

It is important to note that a raw food diet should be carefully planned and balanced to ensure that it provides all the nutrients that dogs need to thrive.
