Blog Happy National Raw Feeding Week!
It’s officially National Raw Feeding Week, and we’re celebrating with a review of why a raw diet is the best and most adapted diet for dogs.
Celebrating Raw Feeding Week.
Founded in 2018 by Kimberly Gauthier of Keep the Tail Wagging, Raw Feeding Week falls on the first week of April every year and is a week dedicated to celebrating the myriad benefits that come as a result of feeding our dogs a raw diet.
Why a raw diet is the best diet for carnivores.
Commercial, over-processed kibble has been thrust upon dog owners as the best and healthiest option for feeding their pets for decades. But there’s a reason why most pet food brands don’t disclose the full and accurate list of ingredients in their kibble, let alone where those ingredients came from or how they were processed. Not only are many of them not healthy for our pets, they’re actually harmful. With countless misinformation and marketing gimmicks swirling around the pet food industry, we’ve gotten away from what’s best for our pets: real, raw food. But at Carnos, we’re breaking that mold.
By feeding our pets straight from the source, choosing high-quality, human-grade ingredients, and skipping all of the over-processing used to make kibble, we are able to retain all of that good, raw nutritional value that our dogs deserve in their diet. By choosing a raw diet, we are choosing our dogs’ ancestral diet – one that enables dogs to reach their full potential and be their healthiest.
Breaking down the benefits of feeding a raw diet to dogs.
While kibble is certainly the most commonly known option when it comes to food that pet owners reach for, it is not the best option. Just as a fresh food diet is best for our health, the same is true for our four-legged friends. A diet of whole, fresh foods–a raw diet–is the best diet for dogs.
In fact, dogs’ bodies are built to handle raw meat, organs, and even certain bones; it’s actually easier for them to digest than highly processed pet food made with fillers and poor-quality ingredients. Making the switch to a raw diet reduces the likelihood of unpleasant digestive issues like constipation, excessive gas, and diarrhea, in addition to plenty of other benefits that you will see manifested in both their mental and physical health.
