Is raw food safe for my dog?
Mad Paws Dinner Bowl’s raw food is very safe for our furry friends. Some skeptics fear that a raw food diet will cause salmonella in dogs. Fortunately for our furry friends, the enzymes in their stomachs, as well as their shorter digestive tracts, quash salmonella's effects. While some types of raw meat can pose a danger to humans, our pooches don’t face the same problem. In fact, by serving meat, offal, and veggies in their raw forms, we ensure that no nutrients are lost to the cooking process. Simply put, your pup enjoys all the benefits of an all-natural diet without the risks.
More FAQ'sWhere do you source your ingredients and prepare the meals? Are they all Australian-made?
Yes, our fresh ingredients are sourced from farmers and produce suppliers within Australia only. Sourced from FREPA-accredited farms, our chicken is free-range, RSPCA-approved, and fed a diet of multigrains blended with spice extracts and essential oils. Our beef is humanely farmed and grass-fed in Tasmania, which boasts some of the cleanest air and lushest pastures in Australia. Together, these factors provide the best conditions for cultivating quality meat. Similarly, our wild kangaroo is ethically and sustainably sourced from across Australia. All of our meals are prepared in certified, human-grade kitchens. In fact, the kitchens in which we work supply some of Sydney’s top gourmet restaurants and specialty grocery stores.
More FAQ'sI’ve noticed that the Dinner Bowl recipes have changed slightly. Why is that?
With the help of our certified pet nutritionist, Alice Clydsdale, we’ve made some important improvements to our recipes. Thanks to these changes, our meals are now 100% complete and balanced and surpass AAFCO’s guidelines. This means that each custom-portioned Dinner Bowl meal provides your dog with every nutrient they need to remain healthy. To achieve this, we have added naturally sourced supplements like Bone Meal powder for a calcium hit; Cod Liver Oil for a healthy heart and shiny coat; and Vitamin E for an immunity boost. Along with these, we’ve also added nutrient-rich ingredients like kelp and spinach across all of our recipes.
More FAQ'sHow do I transition my pet onto raw dog food?
Dogs can be creatures of habit - and so are their tummies. For this reason, any sudden changes to their diet can lead to upset stomachs. Whether it’s from canned dog food to raw food, or lightly-cooked to kibble, your dog’s gut will appreciate some warning. That’s why Mad Paws Dinner Bowl provides a Transition Guide for every new customer. By following the Transition Guide, you can ensure that your pup switches to a healthy, all-natural raw diet without issue.
