Omega-3 rich nutrition to reduce inflammation, heal skin, and restore shine
Your dog's skin and coat are direct reflections of internal health and nutrition. The skin is the body's largest organ and requires significant nutritional support - especially essential fatty acids, high-quality protein, vitamins A, E, and biotin. Processed foods often lack these crucial nutrients or contain inflammatory ingredients that worsen skin conditions. Fresh food provides the building blocks for healthy skin cell production, reduces systemic inflammation, and delivers nutrients in their most bioavailable forms.
Dry, Flaky Skin: Often caused by omega-3 deficiency or poor-quality fats in diet
Excessive Shedding: Can indicate nutrient deficiencies, especially protein and B vitamins
Dull, Brittle Coat: Lacks shine and softness - usually protein or fatty acid deficiency
Hot Spots: Acute moist dermatitis - inflammation exacerbated by diet
Chronic Itching: Can be food allergies, but also inflammatory diet
Yeasty Smell/Ears: Often related to gut health and diet imbalances
Omega-3 Fatty Acids: EPA and DHA from fish oil are powerful anti-inflammatory compounds that reduce itching and heal skin.
High-Quality Protein: Fresh meat provides amino acids needed for skin cell repair and hair growth. Collagen from bone broth supports skin elasticity.
Biotin & B Vitamins: Essential for healthy skin and coat - abundant in fresh meat and eggs.
Vitamin E: Antioxidant that protects skin cells from damage.
Zinc: Supports skin barrier function and wound healing.
Moisture Content: High water content in fresh food supports hydration from the inside out.

CHRISTIE'S EXPERTISE
Hand-selected by Christie, our Integrative Animal Nutritionist, based on nutritional science and real-world results.
Every dog is unique. Work with Christie to create a custom meal plan tailored to your dog's specific needs, health conditions, and preferences.
Book a Nutrition ConsultationMany owners notice reduced itching within 2-3 weeks. Visible coat improvements (increased shine, reduced shedding) typically appear around 4-6 weeks as the hair growth cycle completes. For chronic skin conditions, full healing may take 8-12 weeks of consistent fresh food nutrition.
Our fresh food includes omega-3 rich fish oil, but dogs with severe skin issues may benefit from additional supplementation. A therapeutic dose is 100-150mg combined EPA/DHA per 10 lbs body weight. Consult with Christie for personalized omega-3 recommendations.
Yes! While hot spots have immediate triggers (allergies, fleas, moisture), chronic inflammation from poor diet makes dogs more susceptible. Anti-inflammatory fresh food with omega-3s reduces systemic inflammation, making hot spots less likely and helping them heal faster when they occur.
Often, yes! Yeast overgrowth is frequently related to gut health and diet. Fresh food supports a healthy gut microbiome, which in turn reduces systemic yeast overgrowth. Avoid high-carb, processed foods that feed yeast. Our turkey meals are especially good for dogs with yeast issues.
