The Truth Behind Raw Feeding

like food. In the wild, dogs don't tell each other, "Hey, I'm hungry, let's go to the pet food store and grab
us some lunch." As if!

No, together, they go out and hunt down their food, then dig right in while it's still warm. Sorry about
the graphic image, but well, that's nature for you! They also do not stoke up a campfire and sit around
singing campfire songs while the meat gets cooked. Nope they just have at it in the natural raw form.

Now you might be thinking, "Yeah but that's wild animals, not our sweet kitties and dogs." Think again.
They are and will always be carnivores. They need raw meat and bones to be healthy with a fully
supported immune system. Also the raw, non-weight bearing bones such as the shoulders and backs

give dogs and cats strong, clean white teeth eliminating the need for dentals done under anesthesia at
a veterinarian's office, something that is not only much riskier but much more expensive than feeding
your dogs and cats what they were designed to eat: meat.

Your other pets such as horses, guinea pigs, birds and rabbits also need natural raw food in order to
thrive. They do not forage for pellets, let me tell you. Many birds are omnivorous so they'll eat fruits,
veggies and meat. While our other furry and feathered friends need to eat fresh fruits and vegetables.

Kim Christopher states, "Proper diet is among the more important considerations in the health
Betty Lewis stated on her
website, "What's wrong with commercial foods? The number one item which makes commercial foods
inappropriate for pets is that these foods are cooked. No one has ever reported seeing wild animals

routinely barbecuing their meals! Raising the temperature of food above 118° destroys all the enzymes
and many of the nutrients."

To top it all off, in order to be able to say that these commercial foods have all the needed nutrients in
them, they SPRAY on the nutrients. To get more details on this pick up the book by Ann Martin, Foods
Pets Die For.

One of the best things you can do if you're confused about how to get started feeding your pets a
natural diet is to first find a holistic veterinarian in your area and then find out what is appropriate
for your pet. Homeopathic and holistic vets really adhere and promote the complete natural lifestyle
for your pets and can help you put together a diet that will give your pet what he/she needs for full
nutritional support.

All the problems we're seeing in our pets: allergies, skin disorders, cancer, diabetes, feather plucking,
pulling out fur, etc., can almost always be attributed to poor nutrition AND to food allergies. The
animal’s immune systems are compromised because they are not getting enough nutrition to support it
which then weakens the immune system. Then we see disease. If the immune system is not supported
properly, disease gets a front door welcome into your pet’s body.

So if you want to start seeing your pet’s live healthier, longer lives and also greatly reduce your vet bills,
then switch to a natural, raw food diet. Your pets will love you for it!
