The Natural Revolution: How You Feed Your Dog Is Just as Important As What You Feed
Many of the health and psychological problems that our dogs are experiencing including bloat can be traced to the way we serve their food. A review of bowls and slow feeders will document how they are “unnatural” and counterproductive to a dog’s health and wellbeing. In contrast, by analyzing how our dogs’ ancestors, wolves, instinctively eat in the wild, we are given important ‘serving clues’ that contribute to a well-balanced and healthy eating experience. These critical behavioral and psychological attributes will be identified and recommended in an approach as a truly ‘natural way’ to serve your dog. Additionally, information will be shared on how you can evaluate the ’safety of the material’ for feeders and their potential linkages to health problems—as well as how to interpret the labels manufacturers use to describe these materials. A question and answer period will be provided to find solutions to your specific feeding problems.
