Pet Health - The Raw Food Diet

We often hear about new trends in diet and exercise for people, so it may not be surprising to encounter dietary trends for pets. One gaining interest is the raw food diet.

You might have seen this dietary approach called “Paleo for Pets” or the “ancestral diet.”
These descriptions arise because the main ingredients are raw meat, bones and organs, typically from sources such as beef, lamb, chicken and turkey. Raw pet food may also include raw eggs and unpasteurized dairy products. The diet is uncooked or undercooked, is devoid of grains, and is meant to mirror what canines and felines ate before domestication.
A raw dog food diet is designed to mimic a dog’s natural ancestral menu. The whole concept of raw feeding is based upon a dog’sinstinctive carnivorous bias — a built-in desire to capture (or find) and eat another animal.

Raw dog food diets are controversial. But the popularity of the diets -- which emphasize raw meat, bones, fruits, and vegetables -- is rising.

Racing greyhounds and sled dogs have long eaten raw food diets. Extending those feeding practices to the family pet is a more recent idea, proposed in 1993 by Australian veterinarian Ian Billinghurst. He called his feeding suggestions the BARF diet, an acronym that stands for Bones and Raw Food, or Biologically Appropriate Raw Food.

As unsavory as it may seem, it is completely natural for a wolf toc onsume the entire animal.

Meat, bones, organs and all.

Pet Health: Microchip Month

Check out this article we found:

Microchips are not just exclusive to things like laptops and phones; animals can have them implanted also.

In fact this little piece of technology could be the only thing that may reunite you with your pet.

What is a pet microchip and how does it work?

It is a small capsule, roughly the size of a rice grain, which is implanted under the skin of your pet.

I have never done a fish though; but technically it would be possible.We can microchip nearly every animal from dogs to birds.

It doesn’t need a power source so there is no need to replace it once implanted.

It is made of specific materials to prevent the body reacting against it and rejecting it; and also to try to prevent any movement once implanted. However, the latter can still occur.

The microchip has a unique number and, once registered, will carry all the information needed to ensure your pet can be reunited with you.

Unfortunately, it does not have any GPS feature but watch this space as I think it will become possible in the not so distant future.

The chip will hold all your information, like name, address, contact number, and also information about your pet.

If your dog goes missing and is then found by someone else a professional, like a vet or dog warden, with an appropriate scanner will be able to retrieve the microchip number and then find the information and give you a call.

These chips can only be read by a scanner available to the appropriate people so members of the general public cannot get hold of one.

Here at Northlands we use microchips that are then registered with Petlog.

This is the largest pet database in the country and using that unique number they can find your pet very quickly.

Is it compulsory?

Well, at present the answer is no.

Do Probiotics Work for Humans and Pets?

You may ask yourself, "Do Probiotics Work for Humans and Pets?"

The simple answer is yes, and fortunately there are many regulations that probiotics manufacturers have to follow.  Probiotics are present in any normal human or animal body and supplements are considered safe, but theoretically, there is a risk for those with an immune disfunction. Therefore, it is essential that the contents of a product are displayed clearly on the label and are made familiar to the consumer and health provider.  If the contents of a product are not listed, there is no way to understand the risk factor.  

Probiotic producers are held responsible for making certain that their product is safe before available to customers and used in marketing promotions.
