About Ocean Sourced Omegas
WHY SHOULD I FEED MY PET OCEAN SOURCED OMEGAS?
At The Raw Concierge, we use only whole fish based sources of omega-3's to supplement our raw blends. Known as essential fatty acids, omega-3’s are an important part of a dog’s diet because their bodies simply can’t produce them. Fish also provide a wide range of health benefits that can only be found in a marine source. Necessary for normal growth & functioning of cells, muscles, and organs- deficiencies of essential fatty acids have been linked to a wide variety of health problems, including but not limited to - heart disease, cancer and diabetes.
The Raw Concierge sardines & anchovies are sourced from local fisherman in southern California, flash frozen and delivered to us weekly.
These tiny little fish provide a nutritional power pack of omega for your dogs & cats. We choose to use sardines & anchovies primarily because they don't accumulate as many heavy metals due to their shorter life span.
Feeding pets fish-based omegas is great for those with:
-
Arthritis

Joint paint

Ligament tears

Heart disease prevention
-

Feeding instructions for raw fish:
To keep the integrity of the whole food, we take fresh sardines & cut them in bite size pieces. Smaller dogs & cats may chew on the pieces which is not only encouraged, but also completely safe.
Small dog breeds – 1-2 pieces daily
Medium size dogs – 2-3 pieces daily
Giant breeds – 4-6 pieces daily
Cats – 2-4 pieces daily
Introduce slowly to gauge your individual pet's reaction to the fish. You may increase your pet’s daily intake as tolerated
