Dogs need raw food to maintain their natural health. Out in the wild, dogs kill other animals and eat their raw meat. There is no cooking or factory manufacturing as is seen in dog food today.

It’s fantastic that so many vets are starting to recognize that companion animals need a variety of fresh, wholesome ingredients in their diets, just as humans do. Of course the majority are still barinwashed by the major pet food conglomorates, and consider that ‘fast food’ meals styled like breakfast cereal are OK as the sole diet, for every meal, every day of a pets life – but there’s a growing ‘underground’ of broad-minded vets who’ve taken the time to learn the facts about good nutrition and the importance of fresh foods as a cornerstone to health. Pretty soon, the idea will be commonplace, and we’ll all be wondering why it took so long to realize the link between processed ‘fast food’ and the rise in chonic health conditions and serious disease.
The Honest Kitchen will soon be releasing a series of articles on an arrany of animal wellbeing issues including nutrition, allergies, GI upset and more. http://www.thehonestkitchen.com
