When people talk about raw feeding, the conversation often begins - and ends - with pathogens.But what if that's causing us to overlook much bigger questions?In Part 2 of my conversation with veterinarian and canine nutrition researcher Dr. Anna Hielm-Björkman of the University of Helsinki's independent research group, DogRisk, we explore what researchers are beginning to discover now that raw-fed dogs are finally being studied more closely.We dive into one of the most controversial topics in canine nutrition: food safety and pathogen risk. But we also look beyond the headlines to examine how risk is assessed, what the evidence actually shows, and whether our focus on acute hazards sometimes prevents us from investigating potential long-term health outcomes.From there, we explore some of the most fascinating questions emerging from fresh feeding research:• What benefits are researchers seeing repeatedly in fresh-fed dogs?• Are the advantages of fresh feeding linked to rawness itself, or simply reduced processing?• How should we think about the relationship between dogs, wolves, and diet?• Do dogs actually need plants?• Why does nutrient form matter as much as nutrient quantity?• What happens metabolically when dogs consume fresh foods versus ultra-processed diets?• Why might healthy fresh-fed dogs display different bloodwork values than conventionally fed dogs?This is a thoughtful, nuanced conversation about evidence, curiosity, and the questions we may not have been asking.Whether you feed raw, gently cooked, kibble with fresh additions, or are simply curious about canine nutrition, this episode offers a fascinating look at what we're learning as research begins to catch up with practice.Connect with Dr Anna and the DogRisk team: https://www.helsinki.fi/en/researchgroups/dogrisk-health-via-nutrition-epidemiology-and-disease-detection-dogshttps://instagram.com/dogriskConnect with me!Website: https://mysticdogmama.comInstagram: https://instagram.com/mysticdogmamaI'd love to invite you to join my free Facebook community, The Nourished Pack.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of The Alternative Dog Moms Podcast, we dive into some of the hottest conversations happening in the fresh feeding community.We kick things off by discussing whether a raw food company is getting a fair shake on Reddit, along with a side conversation that confirms why neither of us would survive a career in customer service (0:55).Next, we tackle the mushroom advertisement that claims a specific product can shrink lipomas in dogs. The ad seems to be making the rounds again, so we share our thoughts on what pet parents should know before getting their hopes up (27:48).Then we discuss a thoughtful post from Holistic Canine that offers a balanced perspective on what "balance" actually means when feeding dogs. Is every meal supposed to be perfectly balanced? Can balance happen over time? We share our take on this often misunderstood topic (40:56).Of course, we also provide updates on our dogs, what's working, what we're trying, and what's happening in our homes (55:34).And finally, we wrap things up with TV talk, random tangents, and the usual conversations that somehow take on a life of their own (1:08:02).Episode Highlights: Is a raw food company being judged fairly online? Why customer service is not our calling The truth behind mushroom and lipoma marketing claims A realistic discussion about balance in homemade and raw diets Updates on our dogs and daily life TV recommendations and side conversationsLinks Discussed: Reddit thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/rawpetfood/comments/1tbcfvl/viva_raw_selling_rotten_raw_meat/Kimberly's functional mushroom article: https://rawfeederlife.substack.com/p/functional-mushrooms-for-dogsHolistic Canine's post about Balance: https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1BPAzoDWnk/Recipe resources Kimberly mentions: Forever Dog LifeDinner Pawsible by Dr. Cathy Alinovi and Susan ThixtonDr. Judy Morgan's BooksFeed Real InstituteAnimal Diet FormulatorWoof CreekSocial Media:Kimberly: Raw Feeder Life, RawFeederLife.comErin Scott: Believe in Dog podcast, BelieveInDogPodcast.comRaw Feeder Life, Instagram.com/RawFeederLifeBelieve in Dog Podcast, Instagram.com/Erin_The_Dog_MomThanks for listening to our podcast.

What if one of the biggest problems in canine nutrition is that we've barely studied fresh food at all?In this deep and thought-provoking conversation, I sit down with veterinarian and researcher Dr. Anna Hielm-Björkman from the University of Helsinki's DogRisk research group - one of the only independent, university-connected teams in the world researching raw feeding and fresh food diets in dogs.But this episode isn't about telling you what you should feed your dog.It's about asking a much bigger question:How do we actually know what we know about canine nutrition?Together, we explore how pet food research is conducted, why so much of it focuses on ultra-processed diets, and what happens when fresh and raw food are finally brought into the scientific conversation.Dr Anna shares her own journey from conventional veterinary medicine into a more integrative approach to canine health — including acupuncture, nutrition, and preventative care — and why she became passionate about researching the relationship between food and chronic disease.We also dive into:why there is still surprisingly little independent long-term research on canine nutrition,how veterinary nutrition education is shaped,what “complete and balanced” actually means,why the form of a nutrient matters just as much as the nutrient itself,how processing changes the way a dog's body metabolizes and utilizes food,and why fresh-fed dogs may require entirely different frameworks for feeding guidelines, lab reference ranges, and health evaluation.This is a conversation about nuance, evidence, and curiosity beyond fear, marketing, and polarized internet debates.Whether you feed raw, gently cooked, wet food, kibble, or somewhere in between, this episode invites us to think more deeply about what health really looks like for our dogs - and how science can evolve when we begin asking better questions.And this is only part one.In the next episode, Anna and I will dive into one of the most controversial aspects of this conversation: pathogens, risk, food safety, and the myths surrounding raw feeding.If this episode resonated with you, please share it with a fellow dog guardian, leave a review, or tag us on Instagram @mysticdogmama with your biggest takeaway. These conversations matter because the future of canine health depends on the questions we're willing to ask.More about DogRisk:https://www.helsinki.fi/en/researchgroups/dogrisk-health-via-nutrition-epidemiology-and-disease-detection-dogsRegister for the DogRisk Seminar: https://www.helsinki.fi/en/researchgroups/health-via-nutrition-epidemiology-and-disease-detection-dogs/news-and-happenings/save-the-date-the-8th-dogrisk-seminar-2026Connect with me!Website: https://mysticdogmama.comInstagram: https://instagram.com/mysticdogmamaCome join my free Facebook group, First Light.

Raw feeding is the practice of feeding dogs a biologically appropriate diet made from uncooked meat, bones, organs, and select fruits and vegetables—mimicking what their ancestors ate in the wild. Unlike heavily processed kibble, which often contains fillers, artificial additives, and rancid fats, a raw diet provides fresh, nutrient-dense food that supports better digestion, energy, skin, coat, and overall health. A properly balanced raw diet typically includes:

In this episode of Toni Unleashed, the tables are turned as Erik Senders of Mika & Sammy's interviews Toni Shelaske in a laid-back, unscripted conversation about pet nutrition, retail, and the changing pet industry. Toni shares how her career began in fashion merchandising, eventually leading her to purchase and grow Healthy Pet Products, and later sell her Pittsburgh stores to Pedagogy after 16 years. They dive into raw feeding, kibble quality, and Toni's top recommended supplement and treat brands. From the realities of tooth cracks to supplement scams and chew safety myths, Toni offers no-nonsense takes on what's worth feeding—and what's just marketing. The episode also touches on industry dynamics, the impact of COVID, and how small businesses are adapting to online pressures and slim distributor margins. Toni and Erik reflect on building customer relationships, the role of education in retail, and their hopes for the future of independent pet stores.
In this rare interview, I sit down with Dr. Ian Billinghurst—the father of raw feeding and creator of the BARF diet—to talk truth, science, and the future of pet nutrition. If you've ever questioned commercial pet food or wanted to understand the real roots of raw, this is the episode you don't skip.Send us a text
