Fresh dog food and behavior: supporting happy pups in shared homes

As pet parents, we all want our dogs to be as happy, healthy, and well-behaved as possible.
From providing engaging toys to ensuring regular exercise, there are many factors that
influence a dog’s overall well-being. But one of the most impactful—and often
overlooked—aspects of your dog’s happiness and behavior is their diet. Fresh dog food
offers a more natural, nutrient-rich option that can support not only a dog’s physical health
but also their mental and emotional balance.

‍
Here, we’ll explore how a fresh food diet can positively affect your dog’s behavior and overall
well-being and why it might be the ideal choice for your dog.
‍

Improved Digestion and Balanced Energy Levels

‍
Our fresh dog food is crafted to be highly digestible, packed with natural ingredients that
promote optimal digestion and steady energy levels throughout the day. Unlike highly
processed kibble, which can be challenging for dogs to digest, our meals include a blend of
high-quality proteins and fiber-rich ingredients that mirror a dog’s natural dietary needs,
supporting their digestive system and overall health.

‍
Our meals contain no added grains but are not completely carbohydrate-free, as
carbohydrates are essential for a dog to feel their best. The carbohydrates in our food come
from gently cooked lentils, sweet potatoes, and vegetables, which together provide a
balanced diet rich in vitamins, omega fatty acids, and antioxidants. These carbohydrates
serve as a fantastic source of energy and fiber, supporting healthy gut mobility, a balanced
microbiome, and regular bowel movements.

‍
Tip: If your dog often seems restless or has bursts of energy at unusual times, our fresh
food diet provides a more balanced, steady energy source that helps reduce activity spikes
and crashes, leading to a calmer, more contented dog

‍
Reduced Aggression and Anxiety

‍
A dog’s behavior is deeply influenced by how they feel physically. Uncomfortable digestive
issues, poor nutrient absorption, and fluctuating blood sugar levels can all contribute to
irritability, anxious behaviors, and even aggression in dogs. A high-quality, fresh diet can
help stabilize your dog’s mood by preventing these physical discomforts and providing
balanced nutrients.

‍
Improved Skin and Coat Health

‍
A fresh food diet can greatly benefit your dog’s skin and coat. Butternut Box meals, packed
with bioavailable proteins, omega fatty acids, and natural antioxidants, help nourish the skin
and promote a glossy, itch-free coat. Many customers report visible improvements in coat
appearance and fewer issues with itchy skin, sore ears, and irritated paws.

With better skin hydration and a stronger skin barrier, dogs on Butternut Box experience less
discomfort, leading to calmer, happier behavior. When your dog feels good inside and out,
they’re free to enjoy their day without constant itching or irritation.
