Stop Calling Dogs Omnivores And Start Feeding For Their Species

What if the biggest myths about dog nutrition come from marketing, not biology? We dive straight into the carnivore vs omnivore debate and unpack why labels flip from “feed like a wolf” to “dogs are omnivores” whenever it helps sell cheaper, carb-heavy formulas. Our take is clear: dogs are built for animal-based diets—meat, bones, organs, and fat—and their bodies haven’t rewritten themselves in seven years to fit a new ad campaign.
We walk through what “complete and balanced” really means when you ditch synthetic-fortified pellets for whole foods. From zinc in red meat and organs to trace minerals in sardines, tripe, and edible bone, we show how nutrient-dense variety outperforms spreadsheet anxiety. We also tackle common fears: mixing kibble and raw, bacteria and domestication myths, and whether bones and gulping are safe. Spoiler: canine anatomy is designed for large chunks, strong acid, and muscular propulsion, while cooked bones—not raw—are the real hazard.
Expect practical, no-drama guidance. You’ll hear why blood sugar stability on raw can calm behavior and reduce risk factors linked to seizures, why firmer stools help express anal glands, and why warming meals a touch often boosts enthusiasm. We share simple routines for rotating proteins, avoiding supplement overload, and handling everyday hiccups—like swapped plates or a missed thaw—without panic. The result is a dog that looks better, feels better, and races to the bowl because the food finally matches its biology.
