    Resources/Notes:
  • How to build a complete raw diet, from the ground up.
  • Why AAFCO requirements for some vitamins and minerals are exaggerated (and sometimes just wrong) and what this means when building the raw diet.
  • How modern farming practices have changed the animals you feed your dog and the steps you have to take to replace the missing nutrients.
  • Why the foods we give our feed animals matter and how they can cause inflammatory diseases in the dog eating these meats.
  • The nutritional deficiencies that can be caused when important organs and glands are missing (and how to fill those gaps with common foods).
  • How to find the exact amount of calcium in meaty bones so you don't have to worry about excess or deficiency (especially in puppies).
  • Why knowing the amount of fat in the diet is critical for preventing nutrient deficiencies.
  • How to expertly balance the fatty acids in all protein sources to prevent inflammation.
  • How to feed raw to puppies and expecting moms the right way
  • The common raw foods that can rob your dog of minerals.
  • How to analyze raw diet recipes for deficiencies.
  • Why the missing organs and glands can present health problems for raw fed dogs.
  • The number #1 mistake most raw food manufacturers make (and how to spot it).
  • The best (and worst) examples of raw diets and why they work (or don't work).
  • Why transitioning to the raw diet can cause bone obstructions in your dog (and how to avoid this as well as digestive upset).
  • How to customize the raw diet based on the foods you feed. Different foods have different nutrients and balancing these is the key to success in the raw diet.
  • In short, Certified Raw Food Nutrition Specialists are able to fully analyze commercial raw diets and build complete diets from the ground up that are fully customized not just for the dog, but for the foods the diet is built on. The Raw Dog Food Nutrition Certification Course is the next best thing to feeding the whole, ancestral wild prey your dog was designed to eat.

Every dog is different and there are infinite factors ranging from breed to environment that tie into diet and nutrition and affect our dog’s overall health and longevity.
