Raw food diet: good or bad?
Ever try a raw diet? If you’ve experimented with diets, you may have wondered about trying a new food regimen for your pup. So, is it safe to start your dog on a raw diet?
Anecdotal evidence suggests that a raw diet has benefits for dogs including a shinier coat, healthier skin, cleaner teeth, more energy, and smaller poops. However, experts believe that these benefits have more to do with the specific components of a raw diet, rather than the raw nature of the food.
The American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) recommends against giving raw or undercooked meat to dogs, as that can be harmful to your dog.
If you want to try starting your dog on a raw diet, here are some tips:
Cook raw meat before feeding it to your dog.
Thoroughly wash fruits and vegetables before feeding them to your dog.
Be sure to check that any food you’re planning on adding to your dog’s diet is safe for dogs.
Visit the AVMA website for more tips on keeping your dog and your family safe while handling raw food.
