Q: Why add Canine Health? Isn't raw meat enough?
A: Dr. Harvey's Canine Health is made of certified organic grains which are highly digestible and provide essential complex carbohydrates. When you add the meat the first ingredient becomes protein. Carbohydrates are important for all muscle and brain metabolism. The easiest way to get storage glycogen to be released as glucose for muscle and brain function is through carbohydrates. In addition, Canine Health is loaded with vegetables that provide essential vitamins and minerals and a whole food herbal vitamin and mineral supplement made from whole foods such bee pollen, alfalfa, nutritional yeast, spirulina, lecithin and certified organic herbs.

When the raw foods are added to this exceptional mix the results are a healthier, happier dog. You will know that your dog is eating the most balanced diet available anywhere.

Dogs and cats do very well on the naturally occurring enzymes and nutrients in raw meat. Dogs and cats are not prone to the same bacteria that humans are susceptible to. And therefore concerns over feeding raw meats are not the same with them.

We also have many people who feel more comfortable cooking the meat and that is certainly a fine way to use Canine Health as well. The quality of the meat should be the best you can buy. If organic or free range, hormone and antibiotic free meats are available that would be our first choice. If they are not available to you then always get the freshest meats that you can fine.

Holistic vets all over the country are now seeing the value of feeding raw foods and have found that adding the raw to Canine Health works best for their patients.

Q: What kinds of meat should I use?
A: We recommend using the best beef, chicken , turkey or fish available. Tofu and lentils are choices for strict vegetarians. It really depends on what your dog or cat likes best. We do suggest rotating the type of protein that you use. A raw food diet can truly enhance the health of your companion.

Q: Is Canine Health Difficult to make?
A: Absolutely not. Just add it to boiling water and wait 8 minutes, add your meat and oil and it's to go. It is really so easy and the benefits are so great it is worth the little extra effort that is required.

Q: Sounds good, but will my dog or cat eat it?
A: Dogs love Canine Health, absolutely love it! We get calls and emails everyday saying how wonderful it is to see dogs eat with such gusto. Converting a cat to healthful eating can be more challenging. Click back to feline health for full feline instructions.
