How to Get All the Benefits of Raw Food for Dogs with None of the Mess

Few and far between are pets who won’t gobble their dinner down when it consists of raw food. Perhaps that bowl full of natural, raw ingredients allows them to access their inner primal beasts from days of yore? Pet parents do not always have the same fervor for fresh uncooked dog food though! Many of us are a bit squeamish and just can’t stomach the preparation of raw food for dogs. It can be, well, icky. Fortunately, there are ways to give your pet all the goodness of raw food with none of the mess.

Of course, if you don’t love handling raw dog food, there are a million other cooked and/or dry food dog diet options that don’t involve messy hands. (Or having to tamp down your aversion to raw meat.) So why should you persist? Because the benefits of raw food for your furry best friend far outweigh any resistance to getting your hands dirty.

The Benefits of a Raw Diet

The benefits of a raw food diet for dogs are well-documented.

1. Improved Digestion

Gastrointestinal diseases are believed to account for about 10% of veterinary visits. If your dog is among this number, and seems to consistently suffer from tummy troubles, raw food is an excellent dietary option. Gentle on your dog’s digestive system, and more easily digested than heavily processed kibble, for example, raw food reduces the chances of upset, even painful stomach issues, and promotes regular bowel movements.

2. Essential Nutrients Preserved

Minimal processing ensures that essential nutrients are preserved, providing your dog with all the vitamins, minerals, and enzymes they need for optimal health in their purest form.

3. Omega-3 Fatty Acids for Health

Omega-3 fatty acids, found abundantly in raw fish, support your dog’s skin, coat, and brain health. A shinier coat, reduced shedding, and improved cognitive function – all thanks to the goodness of raw food.

4. Better Dental Hygiene

Chewing on raw bones and meat naturally cleans your dog’s teeth. This helps prevent the buildup of plaque and tartar, leading to better overall dental hygiene. (And fresher doggie breath – what’s not to love?)

5. No Fillers, By-products, or Preservatives

Many commercial dog foods contain fillers, by-products, and preservatives that can be harmful to your dog’s health. With raw food, you have only wholesome ingredients and nothing else.

So, yes, the goodness of raw food for Fido is indisputable. The mess, though? That too is inescapable.
