Facultative Carnivores

Dogs and wolves are known as facultative carnivores. A facultative carnivore does best on a carnivorous diet, but can survive, not thrive on a non-carnivorous one. Cats and wild cats are obligate carnivores, meaning they cannot survive on a non-carnivorous diet. An omnivore really doesn’t care much either way. It eats what’s available, vegetable or meat.

Based on the expert advise of trusted veterinarians, long-term raw freeders and breeders and my personal experience, we believe that a balanced raw diet is the most species appropriate diet option for Alaskan Malamutes, and all dogs. 

Alternatively, we are happy to recommend proven, high quality kibble or home cooked diets if raw feeding isn't available to you.
