Natural CanineWhy home cooked meals? Ask yourself this about commercial foods - How is it possible that commercial foods contain meats (chicken, beef, lamb, etc.), grains, and FAT - yet you can keep them un-refridgerated for weeks or months and they will not go bad... How is this possible? Try placing leftovers from your last nights dinner in the closet for 3 months! Notice what happens? Natural preservatives??? No way. Just how much rosemary and vitamin E do you think it would take to preserve fat and meat for months?? Here’s the answer - Commercial foods are SO HIGHLY PROCESSED that they are no longer food at all. They have been chemically changed into something inert (dead, lifeless) and then sprayed with protein digest and vitamins to fool your dog into eating them. Fats in the food are loaded with preservatives from the rendering plant and as long as the ‘natural’ manufacturer doesn’t add their own, they can say ‘natural - no preservatives’. Real,
fresh food (fed to dogs for thousands of years) is alive
with nutrition - raw or cooked or a combination of both. Pet’s diet determines its health and life expectancy more than any other care. Think about these statements for a moment.
These
statements are very powerful and for those pet owners who
are concerned about the health and well being of their
dogs, it is important to understand the relationship
between fresh, wholesome food and optimal health. Our modern dog’s ancestors got all their nutrition from their prey as well as grazing on wild berries. Protein and fat came from meat and organs (amino acids), calcium from crunching on bones, and vegetables and grains (vitamins/minerals, enzymes)) from the digestive organs and ripened berries. Dental care came from chewing through skin and bones – teeth were naturally scrubbed clean. As time passed, dogs formed a relationship with people and the diet began to change. Hunting was no longer necessary as humans fed the new domesticated dog scraps of wholesome food, bones and vegetables. In more modern times, dogs moved indoors and commercial foods came into the market. Dogs began having symptoms they never had before; like bad breath, itchy skin, dull, dry coats, arthritis, diabetes, thyroid conditions, intestinal disorders, ear infections, heart, liver and kidney disease and various cancers. Some of these symptoms and diseases actually began to be considered normal! What happened? What went wrong? From a nutritional viewpoint this is easy to explain. Compare these two types of diets:
Now, lets look back to the statement: “Your dog is made up of the food it eats. The food becomes your dog – food literally turns into dog!” It is clear to see from this chart that if your dog is made up of the unsavory substances found in most commercial foods, their health will be greatly compromised. Over time (and it can take many years) your dog’s health will begin to reflect those substances from which he is made. Back to the basics. A balanced diet will do wonders for your dog’s health and well being. A healthy, fresh, natural diet will help support your dog with any disease or condition! Many conditions may be helped or improved by diet alone – these include skin conditions, digestive disorders, bad breath, incontinence, arthritis, urinary (kidney bladder) and dull coat to name a few.

If you prefer using Kibble due to the convenience, then you should feed.... During the past decade there has developed a large following in the US and Europe of animal nutritionists, breeders and pet owners who have begun reverting back to the old methods of feeding their pets raw meats, bones and cooked greens much as was the norm before the advent of commercial pet foods. There is much information available of studies pertaining to the use of whole animal meats and organs, essential fatty acids, seeds and some vegetation in the management of the nutritional requirements of our pets.
