A wholesome diet is the foundation for overall health, and for our carnivorous canines, a diet consisting of fresh, real, quality raw meat provides the best opportunity for optimum health and wellness. From their teeth and jaw structure to their digestive anatomies, a dog’s body is optimized for consuming raw meat just as their ancestors and close relatives do in the wild. Dry kibble diets have neglected to prioritize quality and health in exchange for convenience and cheap production costs. As a result, the filler ingredients such as wheat, corn, by-products and preservatives are causing an array of health issues in our dogs, including allergies, obesity, diabetes, auto-immune diseases, cancers and more. And though some kibble companies add well-sourced protein into their recipes, in order to create a dry product with a long shelf life these foods are cooked at such high temperatures which causes fragile amino acids, vitamins and minerals to be destroyed. Ultimately, dogs fed a kibble diet are merely surviving on the synthetic vitamins, minerals, amino acids and antioxidants added into the food in order to fulfill a “complete and balanced diet.”
