A raw diet, preserving the integrity of its ingredients is never cooked. Many times ingredients are whole and in their natural state, this includes fruit and vegetables, muscle meat, bone whole or ground and organ meat.

You may find yourself asking why feed a raw diet? Listed below are just a few of the reasons and Benefits. We always encourage pet owners to do their own independent research and make an educated decision for themselves. We at Taylor Made Raw believe once presented with the facts pet owners across the country will be making the switch from kibble to TMR!

1. Improved over all health and attitude! Increased digestibility, increased gut health, increased immune system and improvement of degenerative diseases (such as hip and joint issues, periodontal disease, allergies even seizures) will result in a happier significantly healthier pet!

2. Reduced stool volume. Your pet will produce less waste, smaller and firmer stools as a balanced raw diet is almost 100% digestible! Kibbles contain carbohydrates such as grain, soy, corn, rice and wheat which can contribute largely to health issues and massive amounts of undigestible waste.

3. Healthier teeth, Gums, and breath. Kibble, canned foods and home cooked meals tend to stick to the gums and teeth, causing decay and are more difficult to digest (not to mention they are not a truly balanced diet). Feeding Taylor Made Raw with our special ground bone formula has been proven to stop dental disease, take away bad breath and improve on over all gut health!

4. Strengthened immune system. Taylor Made Raw is unique in the fact that has very specific and special formulas to help boost your dogs immune system and over all health. Including raw whole ingredients to work WITH your pet digestive tract, this in turn will reduce and eliminate food allergies, and strengthen immune system.

Taylor Made Raw uses no grain, gluten preservatives or fillers. We don’t add any artificial vitamins allowing pets to gain them naturally through their food. Taylor Made Raw is one of the only Raw companies on the market who include unprocessed green tripe in every formula. Green tripe is an absolute super food for dogs, containing good bacteria, digestive enzymes and amino acids that improve digestive systems as well as the immune system.

With proper care and handling a raw diet is completely safe. It’s no
different than preparing a meal in your home cooking meats. Be sure to disinfect hands, and bowls afterwards.

1. Keep frozen until ready to use.

2. Thaw in refrigerator.

3. Keep raw meat and poultry separate from other foods.

4. Wash working surfaces, utensils (including cutting boards, preparation and feeding bowls), hands, and any other items that touch or contact raw meat or poultry with hot soapy water.

5. Refrigerate leftovers immediately.

Dogs do not transmit food born illness through secretion of saliva, or contact to fur or skin. Being around a raw fed dog is completely safe. Again, just practice sanitary habits while feeding.

Dehydrated food is cooked at a low temperature for an extended period of time. During the dehydration process essential vitamins and minerals are lost along with an live enzymes making this diet less complete than in its natural state.

2-3% of body weight a day is a generic rule. However, age, size, weight, breed, activity level, metabolism, energy level, and health all play a role in your dog’s daily nutritional needs. Please reach out to our Taylor Made Raw staff for a more detailed plan for your dog! We are here to help!
