Frequently Asked Questions
Why feed pets a raw diet? “Feeding raw is hardly a new concept...My own research, which continuesafter thirty years, shows that dogs fed raw and natural foods livelonger and healthier lives than their counterparts who are fedcommercial dog food. Dogs naturally have stronger immune systems andare therefore better able to resist disease and parasites.” - Wendy Volhard, author of Holistic Guide for a Healthy Dog
A raw diet will not hurt your pet and will only IMPROVE his/heroverall nutrition and physical condition.

Dogs and catsare scavengers and can eat foods humans could never tolerate. Think ofthe bones dogs like to bury and unearth weeks later. For 99% of thehistory of dogs and cats, nobody cooked for them and they ate only rawfoods; not only did they not get sick but they thrived and lived longerand healthier lives than our pets do today.
What's wrong with dry kibble and canned food? Commercial pet food is one of the most highly processed foods on theplanet - chemical additives are used that increase the palatability,extend the shelf life, and improve the appearance of the food. Theseadditives are dangerous to your pet's health.

A short history of pet food... “Prior to the late 19th century, there was no such thing as prepareddog food. Lucky dogs owned by the well-to-do ate the leftovers fromtheir owner's dinners, and street dogs canvassed the alleys, scroungingfor what food they could find in the trash. In the late 1870's, a timewhen transportation literally used horsepower, a European entrepreneurdevised a unique way to solve the problem of what to do with thecarcasses of the many horses that died every day in the cities; Hedecided to package and sell the horse meat as dog food. The idea caughton, particularly among the wealthy, who appreciated the convenience ofhaving a ready-made food for their dogs. In the decade after WWII, theidea of prepared dog food really caught on. The economy was booming andpeople didn't mind spending a little money for the convenience ofhaving a ready-made dog food for their canine companions. Besides, thecompanies producing these dog foods were performing studies on thenutritional needs of dogs, and their foods were billed as containingeverything a healthy dog needed. At that time, most dog foods werecanned. This method of preserving food was familiar to Americans, whoenjoyed the convenience of canned human foods that could be stored formonths or even years on their shelves. In 1956, dog food companiesbegan to utilize the 'extrusion process', in which nutrients in driedform are mixed with water, steam, and pressure forced through anopening, and the extruded material is cut into small pieces. The foodpieces are then cooled; coated with synthetic vitamins and othercomponents that are lost in the process of heating; flavored to tastelike meat; and packaged.”
