WHY FEED RAW DOG FOOD?

Dogs are carnivores, feeding a balanced raw diet emulates the food and nutrition that nature intended.

Just like humans, most health problems with dogs are due to gut health and diet.

BENEFITS OF A RAW DIET

When your dog transitions to a raw diet of fresh meat and organs, bone, raw veggies and fruit, you will see their health change dramatically.

BENEFITS OF A RAW DIET

When your dog transitions to a raw diet of fresh meat and organs, bone, raw veggies and fruit, you will see their health change dramatically.

Leaner, for less weight on their joints

Quality animal proteins, healthy fats, vegetables containing vitamins and phytonutrients are what your dog needs to stay lean and healthy. Processed diets are heavy in carbohydrates and synthetic nutrients while being light on quality protein.

Improved oral hygiene

Stinky breath comes from poor oral and gut health. Starches in dry food cause plaque and tartar to build up on teeth and bacterial endocarditis, an infection affecting the lining of the heart, is commonly seen in dogs with dental disease.

Reduced allergies, itching and inflammation

Gut health is important for dogs who suffer from allergies and skin conditions. Feeding a raw diet results in a much greater diversity of gut flora which helps boost the immune system and balance its response.

Softer shiny coat with less shedding

When they’re healthy on the inside they’re literally shining on the outside. Up to 40% of the protein your dog eats goes into growing its coat. A raw diet means a softer and shinier coat!

Reduced anxiety and stress

Balancing hormones results in a calmer dog. The gut-brain axis links the gut microbiome with brain function, so by eliminating synthetic vitamins, minerals and preservatives and improving gut health, you can positively affect your dog's behaviour.

Smaller poop and better hydration

Fresh food has a high moisture content so your dog will naturally stay hydrated, and won’t be in a state of constant dehydration, which dry food can cause. This means they urinate less, and without all the indigestible bulking ingredients found in dry food there is less waste matter to pick up.

Less flatulence

Feeding processed food leads to poor gut health and flatulence is a sign. Feeding fresh food helps to eliminate the chance of your dog clearing the room with a silently deadly one.

Improved digestion

Living enzymes in fresh food faciltiate digestion and help your dog grow a more diverse range of healthy gut bacteria. This makes it easy for your dog to properly absorb the nutrients they need from food.

Strengthened immune system

Over 80% of the immune system resides in the gut. Simply addressing gut health through diet can play a big part in balancing the immune system.

Improved fitness and trainability

Healthy heart & brain function results in many obvious benefits but one you might not realise is that it improves your dogs trainability and overall mental state.

Reduced vet bills!

Frequent and expensive trips to the vet can be avoided when a dog is fed a fresh food diet. Problems with itchy skin, ear infections and yeast infections are an outward manifestation of what is happening internally for your dog’s microbiome.

WHAT YOU MAY NOT
REALISE ABOUT KIBBLE

Health professionals have been telling us for a long time that a highly processed diet is not good for humans, so how could it be good for your dog?

The protein in kibble is often derived from sources other than meat. It is packed full of highly-processed starches and carbohydrates as fillers and binders, and is often inflated through the inclusion of non meat ingredients.

Most kibbles, grain free or not, are up to 50% carbohydrates, which convert to sugar in the bloodstream. Sugar feeds yeast and is linked to itching, skin irritations, diabetes, yeast infections, ear infections, obesity and cancer.

When kibble manufacturers remove grains to produce a ‘healthier’ grain free product, they’re replaced with other starches like potato, tapioca, peas, and tomato pomace which are just as bad for your dog.

Dogs only have a biological need for 5-7% carbohydrates so when you feed your dog fresh food, high in quality animal protein, you’re feeding them what they were born to eat.

WHAT STAYS OUT:

We want to feed your dog real food, made with real ingredients that you can see. Ingredients with names you understand, full of fresh meat, seasonal vegetables and fruit, grown right here in Australia.

‘Chicken meal’, which is a waste product of the poultry farming process

Synthetic vitamins and minerals which are sprayed on as coating

Artificial chemicals added to make it smell and taste enticing

Starchy filler ingredients which are often left over from other food manufacturing practices

Added preservatives to achieve unnaturally prolonged shelf life

Misleading labels that try to hide the less desirable ingredients from you

Long lists with ingredient names you don’t even recognise

Formulated by nutritionists
and approved by vets
PROFESSIONAL TESTIMONIAL “They're healthier and living longer due to less problems with their joints and heart” As a vet I know that vegetables, fruits along with high quality protein is essential for a dog’s wellbeing and longevity.
