Wild dogs and wolves have been hunting and eating prey for thousands of years. Dogs have therefore developed a digestive system that functions best on raw foods.
RAW DOG FOOD such as MAXOTA RAW mimics the diet of animals in the wild, specifically wolves and other predatory canines, and is based on the prey that these animals would hunt for in the wild. MAXOTA RAW's biologically appropriate, nutritionally sound and adequate, ancestral diet is based on fresh prey's meat, bone, innards, and predigested fruit and vegetation such as seeds, leaves and grasses.
Shop Raw FoodOnly since the industrial age has the common diet of dogs been cooked, high in grains, and low in nutrients.
- Kibble was developed for human convenience, not dogs' health.....not cool!
- Fillers high in carbohydrates are commonly the main ingredients in kibble, which are difficult for a dog to digest. Amylase, the enzyme that breaks down carbohydrates, is not produced in dogs at the same level as in humans, and this puts stress on a dog's pancreas, which can lead to pancreatitis.....poor dog!
- Cooking food destroys natural enzymes and the "good" bacteria found naturally in raw foods.....they need those enzymes and bacteria for proper immune function!
- Only humans need to cook meat to process the "bad" bacteria.....your dog's evolution as a hunter and scavenger has maintained its extremely short digestive tract which does not allow bacteria the time to multiply to a significant level....dogs use what is needed in their food and quickly get rid of the rest.....power to the poop!
- A shorter digestive tract means your dog needs nutrient rich food, unlike cooked food or kibble, to obtain proper nutrition.
MAXOTA RAW is made with less than 20 fresh ingredients, while "premium" kibble commonly has as many as 100 ingredients.
Reducing the number of ingredients and raising the nutritional value and bio-availability of those nutrients is best for optimal health, especially in allergy-prone animals.....the benefits are amazing!
Our meats (muscle meat, raw meaty bones and organ meat) come from local USDA approved facilities and are antibiotic, hormone, and steroid free. These are an excellent source of bio-available calcium, glucosamine and chondroitin, necessary for healthy hip and joint function. These meats naturally contain the bio-available amino acid Taurine. The lack of Taurine has been linked to medical conditions such as blindness and heart disease. Other manufacturers add synthetic Taurine to their process which is harder for your dog to metabolize as compared to a natural form found in raw meat.
