A dog’s coat isn’t just about looking good—it’s a reflection of their overall health. A shiny, soft coat and itch-free skin are signs that your dog is getting the proper nutrition. One of the best ways to enhance your pet’s coat and skin health is by incorporating fresh, frozen, and freeze-dried foods into their diet. At Feeders Pet Supply, we offer a wide selection of these high-quality options, packed with essential nutrients to support your pet’s well-being.

Why Fresh, Frozen, and Freeze-Dried?

Traditional kibble undergoes high-temperature processing that can strip away vital nutrients, while fresh and frozen diets retain more of their natural benefits. Here’s why these diets are superior for skin and coat health:

• Rich in Omega Fatty Acids – Found in ingredients like salmon and flaxseed, these essential fats help reduce inflammation, hydrate skin, and promote a glossy coat.
  High-Quality Protein Sources – Real meat, organs, and bone support strong hair follicles and skin repair, providing amino acids vital for keratin production.
• Minimal Processing – Less exposure to artificial additives reduces allergens that can cause dry, flaky skin and excessive shedding.
• Moisture-Rich – Unlike dry kibble, fresh and frozen diets retain natural moisture, supporting skin elasticity and preventing dehydration.
• Enhanced Digestibility – Natural enzymes and probiotics improve gut health, ensuring better nutrient absorption for stronger, healthier skin and coat.
• Packed with Antioxidants & Vitamins – Superfoods like blueberries and spinach provide vitamins A and E, zinc, and antioxidants to promote skin cell regeneration and combat dull fur.

Choosing the Right Option: Gently Cooked, Frozen & Fresh, Raw, or Freeze-Dried?

When transitioning from kibble, it’s important to choose the right type of diet based on your dog’s needs and your lifestyle.

• Gently Cooked – Fresh, whole ingredients without raw feeding concerns. Great for picky eaters and dogs with sensitive stomachs.
• Frozen & Fresh – Highly nutritious with optimal moisture and vitamin retention. Requires freezer storage.
• Raw Diets – Offers natural enzymes and bioavailable nutrients but requires proper handling and storage.
• Freeze-Dried – Provides raw benefits without refrigeration needs. Lightweight and convenient for travel.

When switching to a fresh, frozen, or freeze-dried diet, transition gradually. Mix small amounts of the new food with their current diet, increasing the portion size over time to allow their digestive system to adjust. View our guide to properly transitioning your dog here.
