Natural ways to care for your pets kidney
by Destany McDonaldRaw food especially turkey, chicken and duck is the easiest form of meat to digest because the kidney doesn't have to work as hard to digest as it does with kibble...kibble provides your dog with little to no hydration. Raw food can contain up to 70% moisture which ensures your pet is staying hydrated and in turn helps the kidneys function properly.
Causes and management of Dog Diabetes
by Destany McDonaldThere are a few causes of diabetes which include:
- Breed predisposition
- Being inactive
- Lack of Omega 3 oils
- Chronic inflammation stemming from diseases such as IBD, pancreatitis, or skin allergies
- Use of medications such as steroids long term
- Diets high in carbohydrates
Most of the reasons above can be linked to a kibble fed diet....we know that kibble is more high in carbohydrates compared to a raw diet. Diabetes is characterized by having too much sugar in the bloodstream. Carbohydrates create sugar (glucose.) Dogs are more than capable of producing all the glucose that their body needs without any dietary carbs whatsoever.
