Looking to add some variety and nutrition to your dog's raw meals? There are several healthy options you can mix in with their raw food: Fruits and Vegetables: Chopped or grated carrots, spinach, apples, and blueberries are all great sources of vitamins, minerals, and fiber. Just be sure to avoid grapes, raisins, and onions, which can be toxic to dogs. Healthy Carbs: Cooked brown rice, quinoa, or oatmeal can provide sustained energy, especially for active dogs. Eggs: A scrambled or raw egg can be a great source of protein and healthy fats. Bone Broth: A splash of bone broth can add moisture and essential nutrients to your dog's food. Supplements: Fish oil, calcium, or a pre-made vitamin mix can help ensure your dog gets all the nutrients they need, especially if you're making your own raw food blend. Remember: Always consult with your veterinarian before making any major changes to your dog's diet. If you're feeding a commercially prepared raw food diet, it may already be balanced and complete. Check with the manufacturer before adding anything extra. Start with small amounts of any new food and monitor your dog for any digestive issues.
While a complete raw dog food should provide all the nutrients your pup needs, there are some healthy additions you can mix in for variety and extra nutritional benefits.
