Your dog’s digestive system is essential in the processing and absorption of all the nutrients in their food. The digestive system and skin of many dogs are frequently affected by allergies and food intolerances. One of the best ways to avoid digestive upset and support excellent physical and mental health is to make good dietary choices for your dog. The BVA told us: 'We don't recommend a raw food diet, at least without a vet's guidance. This is for two main reasons: the nutritional deficiencies that often come with feeding raw food (eg low taurine in cats or high vitamin A) and the risks associated with handling raw food – both for the pets and the household.'
