How to start feeding your dog or cat raw

Raw as a part of an animal's diet in any fashion is beneficial. Even if it's only 10 percent of their daily diet or you are just adding raw goat's milk to your pet's food, it's the blend and balance that's important.

We had a great time last month at RawFest, sharing with everyone how a raw diet enriches your pet's health and their life, But we don't only celebrate once a year, we are all about eating raw 365 days of the year! If you're interested in starting your pet on a raw diet and feeling a little overwhelmed or aren't sure what raw can actually do for your pet, let us help you out by answering a few commonly asked questions.

What are the Benefits of a Raw Diet?

Raw as a part of an animal's diet in any fashion is beneficial. Even if it's only 10 percent of their daily diet or you are just adding raw goat's milk to your pet's food, it's the blend and balance that's important. Combining the correct portions of meat and raw bone and organ for both cats and dots and some fruits and vegetables for mainly dogs is the key.

Is Raw a Complete Diet?

This can be also a tricky question. Depending on the company that you choose, we actually have lots of variety here at the store. We have complete diets, non-complete diet and then we also have raw bulk items or we have prey models which have no fruits or veggies. Some diets like Vital Essentials offer a complete diet but if you just add raw meaty bones such as chicken neck or back, or duck necks into a diet, that would not be complete.

All raw products at The Pet Beastro are grain-free as the binding quality quality of grain isn't need in raw to hold kibble together, for example.
