Benefits Of A Fresh Diet for Dogs

Friday, June 8, 2018

When first switching to a fresh dog food, most owners will notice that their dog is more excited about eating. This can translate into an increase in energy level throughout the day. Such diets tend to be lower in fiber, and you'll see that a lot of nutrients are actually digested and utilized, resulting in smaller stools.

Most pet parents will relate that when they switch to fresh, what they notice is their dog is more excited about eating. It is something that really increases the bond between the pet parent and the individual dogs because they are really excited about the food. They think that it is, you know, a treat and certainly much different than what they had before. This can translate to an increase in energy levels throughout the day. We also see that dogs typically have  formed stool. They digest more of the food because it is available. Our diets tend to be lower in fiber than some other diets, and so you should see that a lot of the nutrients the food are actually digested. Other people will comment on how the skin and coat much better. This is a product of the careful balance of essential fatty acids within the diet and the availability of those oils that can really promote overall skin and coat health.

In the long term, there may be a variety of health benefits to feeding a fresh diet. We know that with a carefully balanced nutrient blend, dogs can really have optimal health and again, maintain normal function. By keeping their weight down and in an appropriate category, it may help to prevent things like osteoarthritis and other diseases that can really affect them as they age. Most importantly, Nom Nom diets are also carefully balanced with the right amount of protein, and so this increased protein can be beneficial for animals as they age to maintain their muscle mass, to really maintain their strength, and to support all of the essential functions of the body. So our hope is that by delivering these carefully designed, fresh nutrients in the exact amount of calories your dogs need, that it will contribute to the longevity of your animal, so you can continue that bond that Nom Nom hopes to be a part of.
