What your dog eats affects their energy, skin and also their behaviour.
What is natural nutrition?
Food based on fresh, recognisable ingredients: meat, fish, organs, eggs and sometimes vegetables, either lightly cooked or raw (BARF).
Common benefits
- Better digestion and firmer stools.
- Healthier skin and coat.
- Stable weight and muscle.
- More calm: a dog without gut discomfort or itching is less irritable.
How to start safely
- Talk to a vet specialised in nutrition.
- Transition gradually over 1–2 weeks.
- Observe stools, energy, skin and appetite.
- Adding fresh food to kibble is already a good step.
- Avoid toxic foods: onion, grapes, raisins, chocolate, xylitol and cooked bones.
Caring for the inside helps education on the outside.
