A Natural Diet Loved by Dogs with Kidney Disease.
It's an unfortunate fact that a great number of people switch to raw feeding due to sickness in their pet. One of the most common ailments in this regard is kidney disease. While Paleo Plus Special Diet is a fantastic standalone product for all dogs; it is also low in phosphorus and purine, and these two must be considered in the feeding of dogs with chronic kidney disease.
Paleo Ridge have managed to keep the phosphorus and purine low by dropping the bone content to the lowest possible level (bone is very high in phosphorus), using beef and pork meat (far lower in phosphorus than chicken, turkey and fish) and keeping the non-essential organ content down (they are simply too high in phosphorus so you must choose carefully).
Meat is a source of purine, so Paleo Ridge add to this mix more blended veg, in particular some added carrot which adds fresh vitamin A, known to keep kidneys lubricated. The vitamin C and anti-inflammatory polyphenols in the dark berries of Berry Good are a catalyst to this process.
We recommend keeping your dog on this product for a period and then re-testing your dog’s kidney function.

Handling Raw Food:
Paleo Ridge, care about the safety and health of our customers, from humans to dogs, we do everything we can to ensure the safe feeding of raw food.
A common question asked is, 'is there any risk to my health if my dog eats raw food and then licks my face?'. There is always a risk if your dog licks your face whether they are raw fed or not.
Dogs mouths are not the cleanest of places especially as they lick all sorts outside including dirty puddles, rubbish and other animals poop! To answer this question, we advise against your dog licking your face at any point, if possible.
It may seem obvious, but raw food must be treated just as any other raw meat: with care. Below are some great hygiene tips you can use to ensure you're being as safe and hygiene conscious as possible.
