Why should you feed your dog raw food?

17/09/2012

The storage stability of vitamins and minerals are impaired by cooking (Lugwigshafen et al. 1984). Phospholipids found in the cell walls of plant and animal material and essential for the health of each living cell are also broken down by heat. Phospholipids are needed in great quantities by the immune system, especially in the formation of pus in infected wounds (Pond, 2000).

    Totally agree!
    Raw is the best diet for dogs, cats and ferrets – not all this rubbish that comes in sacks and/or tins – real food!
