Not the most lovely topic, but an important one- P**P 👀💩

One thing people IMMEDIATELY notice when switching their dog to a properly balanced REAL FOOD diet?
👉 Less p**p 💩

And that’s actually an incredibly good sign. Real food is more biologically appropriate, which means dogs digest and use more of what they eat—so there’s LESS WASTE coming out the other end.

Smaller, firmer stools = better nutrient absorption and a happier gut.

Less p**p to pick up, less stink, and fewer tummy issues overall. It’s a win-win 🙌

🐾🐾𝟔 𝐲𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐬 𝐨𝐥𝐝 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐧𝐨 𝐯𝐢𝐬𝐢𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐚𝐫 𝐛𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐝𝐮𝐩— HOW?

A clean, minimally processed diet!

Highly processed dog foods are rich in starches that break down into sugars, feeding oral bacteria that produce plaque and tartar. 😔

In contrast, whole, unprocessed foods reduce fermentable carbohydrates and encourage natural mechanical cleaning which supports healthier gums and enamel.

This means no more concerns about dental cleaning or issues which can become quite worrying 🤕 even the need to use anesthesia alone to perform dental cleaning procedures should be a concern!

Oral health is a downstream effect of nutrition — diet composition clearly matters. 🧬🐕

P.S this shot is a picture of our Buddy’s teeth. No editing! And no we don’t brush his teeth either 🙂

🐾 **Itchy Dogs? Start with a Diary.** 🐾

We see this all the time: clients asking what supplement to use for itchy skin.
But here’s the truth 👇

✨ **Supplements can only do so much if we don’t identify the root cause.**

That’s why keeping a SIMPLE DIARY is one of the most powerful (and overlooked) tools when dealing with skin issues.

📒 **What to track:**

* When the itching flares up
* Food & treats (including new ones)
* Grooming products used
* Environment changes (grass, beach, rain, heating, seasons)
* Parasite control & medications
* Stress or routine changes

Over time, patterns often appear 🔍
➡️ Certain foods
➡️ Seasonal triggers
➡️ Contact allergens
➡️ Grooming or cleaning products

Once you spot a correlation, then targeted solutions actually work — whether that’s diet changes, product swaps, or the right supplements for the right reason.

💡 **Bottom line:**
No supplement can out-perform good detective work.

ALWAYS RESEARCH BIOLOGY NOT MARKETING!

❗️❗️ʙᴇꜰᴏʀᴇ ʏᴏᴜ ᴅᴇᴄɪᴅᴇ ᴛᴏ ꜰᴇᴇᴅ ʀᴀᴡ, ʏᴏᴜ ᴍᴜꜱᴛ ᴋɴᴏᴡ ᴛʜᴇ ᴡʜʏ. ᴡʜʏ ɪꜱ ꜰᴇᴇᴅɪɴɢ ʀᴀᴡ ʜᴇᴀʟᴛʜʏ? ᴀɴᴅ ᴡʜʏ ᴅᴏ ᴡᴇ ʙᴇʟɪᴇᴠᴇ ᴛʜᴀᴛ ᴛʜɪꜱ ɪꜱ ᴛʜᴇ ʙᴇꜱᴛ ᴄʜᴏɪᴄᴇ ᴏꜰ ꜰᴏᴏᴅ ꜰᴏʀ ᴀɴʏ ᴅᴏɢ?❗️❗️

To understand ideal diets, we must look at EVOLUTIONARY BIOLOGY.

Our dogs descended from WOLVES over 200 million years ago and whilst wolves evolved from being non human interactive animals to more domestic companions (closer to today's modern dog) around 5-10 thousand years ago, they have always consumed raw prey and vegetable scraps depending on availability. 🐺🐺🥩🥩🌱🌱

Whilst changes are visibly evident from wolf to the domestic dog we know today, the digestive process and intestines are still those purely inhered from their ancestors. 🐕🦮They maintain a metabolic physiology which needs fats, and proteins for energy with zero adaptation to cooked foods or carbohydrates.

Enough to consider the shift?

Did you know? 🐾🐾

🐾 Did you know that dogs and cats don’t actually need carbohydrates? But do you know how many carbs are in your dog or cat’s food?

Most pet food labels don’t list carbohydrates — even though excess carbs can be a major driver of inflammation, insulin spikes, weight gain, and metabolic stress in dogs and cats.

The good news? You can calculate it yourself in seconds using the NFE (Nitrogen-Free Extract) method 👇

Carbohydrate % =
100% − Protein% − Fat% − Fibre% − Ash% − Moisture%

📊 Example:
Protein 25%
Fat 15%
Fibre 3%
Ash 8%
Moisture 10%
👉 Carbohydrates = 39%

That’s a HUGE carb load hiding in plain sight.
Understanding what’s really in your pet’s bowl is one of the simplest ways to support healthier weight, steadier energy, and better long-term wellbeing 🐶🐱

🌍 There are an estimated 8.7 million species living on our planet. But did you know that only dogs, cats and humans share the same trend of escalating ill health.

More sickness
More sensitivities
More allergies
More chronic conditions

So here’s the question 👇
**Why do you think dogs, cats, and humans specifically are experiencing the same trend?**

The science and statistics are out there.
We’d love to hear your thoughts.
