Veterinarians stress that dogs are carnivores. In short, dogs prefer meat. No matter the breed of the dog, the dog’s digestive system is “set up” to digest meat and to derive meat’s nutrients more effectively and efficiently than they can with over-processed commercial diets. When dogs are unable to digest highly processed diets it leads to deficiencies, degenerative diseases and allergic reactions. Our veterinary experts agree that raw food is best for your dog.
