With over 30 years of experience, it offers clear, practical recipes and nutritional charts tailored for all dog life stages and health needs, empowering pet owners to improve their dogs' health, coat, and longevity through fresh, natural feeding. ## Description The definitive guide to feeding your dog a balanced and nutritious raw and home-cooked diet, from the founder of a natural pets product company with over thirty years of experience working with dogs. Many people want to prepare their dog's meals at home, but feel it is too complex. Raw and Natural Nutrition for Dogs provides a road map to the essentials of canine nutrition, written in easy-to-understand language. Pet owners seeking to give their dogs a better coat, better skin, and healthier teeth and gums, as well as longer lives and more stable temperaments, will benefit not only from the background data in this book, but also the step-by-step instructions and recipes for preparing these diets. The book includes charts with the recipes, instructions on keeping diets simple and balanced, guidelines on preparation, suggestions for finding ingredients, and how much to feed a dog by body weight. There are recipes for healthy adult dogs, as well as guidelines for puppies, senior dogs, and dogs with health conditions including pancreatitis, renal problems, gastric issues, allergies, heart disease, liver disease, and cancer. Tracing the history of feeding dogs, the author shows when commercial dog food rose and took hold of the market. She discusses canine nutritional needs and provides research on how home-prepared foods can meet pets' needs better than commercial, processed dog food. Written with thorough information for the seasoned raw feeder, this guide can also be easily followed by any newcomer to home-feeding. This revised edition includes new information on special care and feeding of pregnant, newborn, performance, and toy breed dogs as well as senior dog considerations and the safety of the raw food diet for dogs. Review: Best book I have found for feeding raw or home cooked for your dog - Most helpful book I have read so far on how to feed your dog naturally instead of buying kibble. I had been feeding my dog 'premium' kibble but she never had much enthusiasm for it- plus her teeth and breath were not good. Her coat lacked shine and she had a doggy smell- not unpleasant but distinct. I know that the dog food companies and even vets promote the idea that commercial dog food is best for your dog and is complete and balanced but somehow it just never felt right to me that this very processed stuff could be better than fresh food. It just reminds me of how doctors used to believe and tell women that formula was better than breast milk for babies- something we may think is incredible now but was believed at the time. Also, it seems bizarre that the solution to the tartar problem is to brush our dogs teeth! This book is extremely helpful if you want to feed fresh and makes it quite simple - whether you choose to feed raw or cooked. I now feed my dog mostly cooked chicken, turkey, beef and lamb only braised on the outside, tinned sardines or mackerel (in water) once a week and offal (lamb, chicken or beef liver or kidney) once a week as well. We are lucky as we live in Ireland in the country and the beef and lamb are grass fed and local from the butchers. I add a small bit of cooked or raw vegetables to one of her daily meals, one orange and one green, for vitamins and fiber and to bulk up her meal. If raw its grated. The only carbohydrates are small pieces of fruit such as banana, strawberry, or watermelon as treats -occasional rice. I pierce fish oil capsules and she gets that once a day unless she's eating fish. I feed her twice a day as she is a small dog - so that's 14 meals a week. I found it easiest to get a routine going- tinned fish Friday evening (fish fridays) , offal Monday ('awful' mondays), eggs for 1 or 2 meals in the week. I no longer feed her bones as she is such a gobbler it was too scary, and she broke a tooth. The rest of the meals are a rotation of lamb, turkey, beef, chicken, whatever I happen to be getting from the butchers, but I do make sure that she isn't eating the same meat all the time. I don't feed raw eggs in shell, but cook the white - the yolk stays raw. Everything I buy is stuff that is being sold for human consumption. I never feed her bones without supervision. I have plastic sandwich bags and portion the weeks meat meals in them and they go in the freezer- I take them out a days portion and put it in the fridge the night before to thaw and it's ready to go the next day- just meat or egg in the morning and I'll add whatever veg or supplement to the evening portion. It's pretty easy and I don't think I will ever go back to kibble and my dog absolutely loves it! Her teeth and coat are better. Her poops are small and not smelly, except oddly enough, on those times when she gets some of our leftover cooked meat! Review: A must read - A great book for anyone wanting to understand or help their dogs better.

A great insight ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent book *by L***7 on 9 September 2019* I buy a lot of books on dog nutrition. This is by far the clearest and most helpful. If you are looking at investing in a book so you can home cook for your dog then get this one first. If you are deciding between this one and Becker (while Becker is good) this one is easier to follow. ## Frequently Bought Together - Raw and Natural Nutrition for Dogs, Revised Edition: The Definitive Guide to Homemade Meals - Dr Becker's Real Food For Healthy Dogs and Cats: Simple Homemade Food - The Forever Dog Life: 120+ Recipes, Longevity Tips, and New Science for Better Bowls and Healthier Homes --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.gr/products/62615902-raw-and-natural-nutrition-for-dogs-revised-the-definitive-guide](https://www.desertcart.gr/products/62615902-raw-and-natural-nutrition-for-dogs-revised-the-definitive-guide) --- *Product available on Desertcart Greece* *Store origin: GR* *Last updated: 2026-10-02*
