What is The Dog Nutrition Podcast?

What should you feed your dog? Which diet will give them the best chance of a long and healthy life? Is the growing popularity of raw feeding justified by the evidence? Radio journalists and dog lovers Penny Boreham and Seb Masters investigate the world of dog food with the help of vets, scientists and nutritionists.

This series was made with the financial support of Honey’s Real Dog Food, one of the longest-established raw dog food producers in the UK. The presenters had complete editorial control.
