The Evolution of Dog Food: Why Raw Feeding is Making a Comeback

Understanding the history of dog food helps us appreciate why raw feeding is becoming so popular again. At Canino, we’re committed to offering a biologically appropriate raw food that mirrors the natural diet of dogs.

Back to Basics:

For thousands of years, dogs thrived on diets that were naturally raw. Their ancestors consumed fresh meat, bones, and organs—foods that were biologically suited to their digestive systems. This diet provided all the nutrients, vitamins, and minerals necessary for optimal health.

The Shift:

The early 20th century marked a significant shift in dog nutrition. The convenience of commercial kibble, coupled with innovative marketing breakthroughs like Milk-Bone biscuits, led many pet owners to adopt processed foods. While these products offered convenience, they often fell short in meeting the full nutritional needs of dogs.

A Comeback:

Today, a growing number of pet owners are revisiting raw feeding, recognizing its benefits as a biologically appropriate diet. Raw feeding aligns with dogs' natural dietary needs, offering a range of fresh, nutrient-dense foods that support overall health and well-being. Canino’s commitment to providing a biologically appropriate diet ensures that your pet gets the nutrition they were designed to thrive on.

By understanding the timeline of dog food and returning to a diet that mirrors their evolutionary needs, you can help your pet lead a healthier, happier life. Explore our raw feeding options and join the movement towards a more natural, nourishing diet for your furry friend.
