We have a great selection of raw diets and raw toppers! Stop in and let's chat!
🐾 Did you know? Feeding just 20% fresh food to puppies can significantly reduce the risk of skin issues later in life, according to researchers in Helsinki. 🥦🐶
Even better? Starting your pup on a whole food diet can help prevent skin problems altogether.
But here’s the catch: feeding heat-dried animal parts, fruits, or even drinking from puddles were identified as *risk factors* for skin disease. Kibble-heavy diets also showed a significant link to allergies and atopic dermatitis (AD), a common inflammatory skin condition in dogs.
As DogRisk team leader Docent Anna Hielm-Björkman shares:
“Puppies not getting any raw foods, eating mostly dry food like kibble, and being fed fruits or dried animal parts had significantly more allergy-related symptoms in adulthood.”
With AD affecting 18.3% of dogs worldwide (and rising), what you feed your pup today can shape their health for years to come. 💚
