Here's a few tips on investigating your raw feeding supplier

1. Is the produce wild or free ranged or all factory farmed?
2. How much fillers and preservatives ( fillers include ground bone, water, vegetables).  The best way test what your actually buying is by taking a portion of mince and microwaving it for 30 seconds.  Meat doesn't melt - most fillers will.

The ideal natural raw diet for dogs 

A raw diet for dogs  includes organs, muscle meat, raw meaty bones, raw green tripe, raw eggs. This can be supplemented with dog-safe fruits, herbs and vegetables.  

• Feeding minced pet mince is not enough.  It is heavily imbalanced and will cause health and structural issues and provides no oral hygeine for your pet.
• Feeding raw green tripe is a must as it promotes gut health and aids the digestion process enhancing metabolism and better access to the nutrients from the food the dogs consumes.
• Feeding raw meaty bones is a must. Bones contain the perfect ration of calcium to phosphorous. Apart from this they provide mental stimulation, stress and boredome relief and oral/teeth hygeine.
• Meat is not enough dogs need micro and macro vitamins and minerals. The richest natural source of these are organs, innards of prey animals.
