If your dog has any minor health issues, eg allergies, loose stools, windy tummy or bad breath, switching to Basil’s Raw Dog Food can result in marked improvements.  If your 4-legged friend has serious health issues we would always recommend that you consult with your vet or nutritional advisor before switching diets.

Basil’s Raw Dog Food is complete, consisting of meat, bone, and vegetables so you don’t need to add any dry foods or carbohydrate-based extras. Of course, if your dog has any special dietary requirements then adding a suitable supplement is absolutely fine.

You can give your dog small quantities of natural and healthy treats; these are particularly useful in training. 

Our four-legged friends are very well equipped to deal with bacteria. As humans we are able to deal with a certain amount of bacteria but dogs are on another level! They would have to be when you consider what they put their noses into and what they put in their mouth on their daily walk!

A dog’s saliva contains an enzyme called lysozyme which will destroy any harmful bacteria.  Food then enters a dog’s stomach which is highly acidic, even more so than ours as humans. This extremely acidic environment efficiently neutralises bacteria.  Of course, the fact that dogs are so well equipped to cope with bacteria doesn’t mean that we at Basil’s Raw Dog Food are complacent.  We only use very fresh human grade meat in our raw dog food and comply with strict hygiene procedures.  Needless to say - we as dog owners should always be aware of hygiene, and washing hands when handling raw meat. For more information on hygiene, see the PFMA guidelines. 

Dogs have been chewing and digesting raw bones for thousands of years, it is completely natural and what they would eat in the wild. Raw bones contain minerals and nutrients to keep your dog healthy, including calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, Vitamins A, D and E, essential amino acids including Lysine and essential fatty acids. Chewing on a bone is a natural activity resulting in a happily occupied and contented dog. Bones can also keep your dogs’ teeth clean and the gums healthy acting as a natural toothbrush. Cooked bones however should never be given to dogs as cooking makes bones brittle and liable to splinter. Your dog should be supervised when given a bone, particularly the first time.

Basil’s Raw Dog Food can be fed to puppies from weaning onwards, It is easily digested as the meat, bones and vegetables are all safely minced. The nutrients contained in Basil’s will give your puppy an excellent start in life.  Please also refer to our feeding guide.
