The Impact Of Raw Dog Food On Digestive Health: A Comprehensive Overview
With the buzz around raw dog food, it's understandable that your interest is piqued. Perhaps you're exploring options beyond commercial dog food, or you're eager to join the revolution in dog nutrition.
Ahead of making the switch, read our guide on the positive impacts from raw food on a dog's digestive health:
Efficient Digestion
A natural carnivore, the pH levels in a dog’s stomach are designed to break down protein and bone – a raw diet supports healthy gut bacteria that aids digestion.
Smaller, Less Smelly Stools
Highly processed dog food contains fillers, additives, and preservatives that offer no nutritional value and result in large, foul-smelling stools. Raw dog food contains nutrients in their natural state, resulting in smaller, firmer, easier to release, and less smelly stools.
Oral Hygiene
Chewing and gnawing on raw food provides dental benefits, including cleaner teeth, healthy gums, and fresher breath.
Mental Stimulation
Chewing and gnawing on raw food provides mental well-being for dogs, as they are engaged, curious, and stimulated by the natural aroma, taste, and texture.
Boosted Immune System
Raw meat naturally contains immune-strengthening nutrients and ingredients, such as essential fatty acids, trace elements, marrow, and cartilage that reduce inflammatory conditions and aid in fighting infections.
