Thank you!!! I will be sharing with my clients!
Wonderful! Thanks so much!
I have been feeding a raw homemade diet to my two dogs for over 13 years. They are now 15 and almost 15 with zero health issues. I personally do not trust any commercial dog food and I want to have complete control over every ingredient. There are now better quality raw dog foods on the market than when I started, however I still do not trust them. Many of them have extremely high copper levels which I believe can cause liver problems over time. This applies to quality raw foods as well because they often use excessive amounts of organ meats (particularly liver) because the organ meats are discarded often by the human food industry and cheaper. Organs are super foods and critical to the diet, however overdoing organ meats is not healthy IMO. And some of these foods add copper and other supplements on top of them. I encourage everyone to learn how to feed their dogs.
Hi. I have tried many different foods, raw, homemade cooked, raw food companies, like Northwest Naturals. I have not been able to solve my toy poodles skin issues. He's 10 years old now. Where did you start on your journey please.
@@lindamikesell6390 thanks for watching our video and we understand this can be really frustrating when food doesn't fix the problem. We recommend checking out our Better Gut Health free masterclass that will help show you the other pieces to the puzzle with frustrating skin issues so you can make sure you're not missing something else: ua-cam.com/video/8_tIrCwjHHA/v-deo.htmlsi=kLnfqpGaa4pHx04V
@lindamikesell6390 I tried to share my journey but my comment was deleted. I think people have the greatest chance of getting to the root cause of food issues is by learning from a qualified nutritionist how to feed a homemade diet correctly. This will allow you to truly isolate the ingredients. This is difficult with commercial foods because they have so many ingredients. For example, a friend of mine discovered that fish oil was a culprit for her dog and this is found in many dog foods. Sometimes what is a healthy ingredient for one dog is problematic for another. I found this to be the case with my dogs.
@@mamabear9389 unless UA-cam deleted something - we don't delete comments since it's important for voices to be heard, unless it's really derogatory and mean👍
@thenaturalpetdoctor Ahh that is great. I agree completely. Perhaps it was a glitch with me or my computer or UA-cam.
Thanks for the info always appreciate you . I been feeding fresh for 5 yrs after i lost my dog to cancer i knew i had to make a change moving forward and educate myself into everything my dog is consuming now change to holistic vs conventional ,feeding whole foods organic and is the best decision i ever made my dig is healthy and striving big difference his allergies gone. His 7 yrs old .
I love hearing this win and I'm so sorry to hear about your dog passing from cancer. I had a similar journey with my soul dog too, but he continues to live on with the mission of helping to inform others there's a different way we can truly optimize their health❤
Thank you for this great info. I found most helpful some recommendations for kibble because I can't feed total whole food. I have a large dog but I do add whole food toppers.
