Raw Dog Food and Fish Oil For My Old Dog?
Question: Raw Dog Food. My little female dog is 13 years old and her legs have started to fail her, can I give her the same fish oil I take?. In less quantity?. Thanks. Martha.

Answer:Raw Dog Food. Dry pet food manufacturers claim everything our animals need is inside that attractive bag with their beautiful pictures of meats, vegetables and fruits, labeled "natural!" This would be great, but it's impossible to make such claims. No matter how good the ingredients are in a bag of dog or cat food, it is still a highly processed, grain-based food, lacking in live and whole nutrients. Just a big bag of dead omega 6 fatty acids. Manufactured dry dog foods do not provide the nutrients our dogs need and thus cause malnutrition; commercial foods also contain toxins that are over-burdening their bodies and compromising their immune systems so they fall prey to disease. I don“t recommend flax seeds. Many dogs can not convert it to EPA and DHA and it would have to be milled on the spot to avoid oxidation, which makes it useless. Many supplements contain Omega 3 and Omega 6. By now you know that most pet food contains more that needed omega 6, so if you add more with the supplement, you are not helping your dog. Off course, your dog needs a lot of omega 3, as much as humans, specially in their infancy and old age. It is important that you give her one omega 3 capsule per day and that you change her diet from that terrible dry food for dogs. What if you had to eat that dry food instead of your natural carnivorous diet?. That is the diet your dog needs at any age, a carnivorous diet. You can also give her something very healthy one egg a day. I wish you read our pages

One Essential nutrient may be completely missing from our diets today, omega 3 fats. Omega 3 fats are essential for our hearts, minds and entire body. In fact, every cell of our organism needs omega 3 to work at its prime. For the last 30 years, hundreds of clinical studies have documented the benefits of omega 3 fish oil. Even the conservative American Heart Association (AHA) recommends it for people with risks of cardiovascular disease. The situation is that it is difficult to get the proper amounts of fish oil without risking dangerous contamination, if you want to take it from your diet. As an answer to that need, we offer molecularly distilled fish oil that comes from deep water fish, Hoki, a deep sea fish naturally high in DHA and unique to New Zealand. The oil is refined through extensive molecular distillation processes to remove any form of contamination. Click here to learn more .
