Have you ever wondered what your dog would naturally eat if given the choice? In this eye-opening conversation with Pamela, founder of Pure Life Raw, we dive deep into the transformative world of raw feeding and why it might be the nutritional approach your dog's biology craves.

Pamela's journey began with her own sick cats who weren't responding to traditional veterinary treatments. Her research led her to raw feeding, resulting in a complete health transformation that inspired her to launch her company in 2017. She brings both personal experience and professional expertise to the table, having studied animal nutrition after leaving her corporate marketing career.

The science behind raw feeding is compelling. Your dog's digestive system is specifically designed for raw meat - with highly acidic stomach environment (approximately ten times stronger than humans') and a shorter digestive tract that processes food quickly. This natural design explains why many dogs thrive on raw diets, experiencing benefits like reduced shedding, smaller and less odorous stools, and fewer allergic reactions.

Perhaps most surprising is Pamela's insight about protein variety. Contrary to common practice of finding one food and sticking with it, rotating different protein sources actually helps prevent allergies while providing a broader nutritional profile. This mimics how canines would naturally eat in the wild, consuming different prey animals as they become available through changing seasons.

For those concerned about safety or transition challenges, Pamela offers practical guidance on sourcing quality ingredients and gradually introducing raw foods. She emphasizes the importance of seeking education and possibly consultation when making the switch, especially for older dogs with established dietary patterns.
