Autumn from A Balanced Canine joins us to uncover the world of dog nutrition and how adding fresh foods like meat, fruits, and vegetables to their diets is key to optimal health. We delve into the lower standards for dog food compared to human food and discuss the carnivorous omnivore nature of our four-legged companions.In this enlightening conversation, we explore traditional Chinese medicine's application to dog nutrition, focusing on the concepts of Yin and Yang to determine the properties of food for a dog's diet.
