Let's face it ... most dog owners who feed a raw diet are doing it wrong ...
Raw diets aren't quite as easy to assemble as chat and social media groups claim. Most raw feeders make the same few mistakes ... and it's robbing their dogs of critical nutrients.
Properly constructed, the raw diet is the very best nutrition for dogs. But it's much more expensive and often time-consuming than commercial diets. Since you make such a large investment in raw food, you need to understand the dog's nutrient requirements and the potential pitfalls of the raw diet to protect your investment, not just in the diet but in your dog.
Raw feeding isn't a fad: it's here to stay. But just feeding raw isn't enough ... you need to know what foods to feed, how to avoid the imbalances many foods can cause, and how to make sure your dog gets enough vital minerals in the diet (hint: most dogs don't).
Raw feeding is based on giving the dog the diet his ancestors ate. But that diet is no longer available!
Modern farming practices have fundamentally changed the foods we feed our dogs. And if you ignore these changes, your raw diet will not only be incomplete, it can cause chronic inflammation and immune diseases in your dog. Isn't better health the reason you feed raw?
The raw diets most dogs are fed are:
In other words, a raw diet can be the best investment you can make in your dog. But you need to go the extra mile and make sure you don't make the common mistakes that will rob your dog of the benefits.
That's where DNM University comes in.
We'll break down the raw diet and give you the science behind raw nutrition. And best of all, we'll cut through all of the hype and myths and learn how to design a scientifically sound raw diet with the guidance of Marion Smart DVM PhD, one of North America's most respected nutrition experts.
You asked for a science-based raw food certification course and we delivered!
You can use the Raw Dog Nutrition Certification Course to train and certify your staff, you can use your certification to help you land a job that recognizes your investment in a certification that's both respected and ready to apply ... or best of all, you can use the course to give your own dog the healthiest and most nutritionally complete raw diet possible.
As a certified Raw Dog Food Nutrition Specialist, you'll have the skills you need to help change the quality of nutrition - and the quality of life - of dogs everywhere.
More specifically, in this master class, you'll learn:
In short, Certified Raw Food Nutrition Specialists are able to fully analyze commercial raw diets and build complete diets from the ground up that are fully customized not just for the dog, but for the foods the diet is built on. The Raw Dog Food Nutrition Certification Course is the next best thing to feeding the whole, ancestral wild prey your dog was designed to eat.
The calculator is a huge database of all of the common raw foods. All you need to do it plug in the foods you want to feed and the calculator will give you all of your nutrient totals (and it will tell you if they meet AAFCO or NRC requirements). This tool is yours, as part of the Raw Dog Food Certification Course (but only for a limited time).
The Certification Course is 9 hours of video training and contains downloadable handouts and exercises. Most classes can be completed in a weekend if you're working on them full-time, but 7 to 14 days is the recommended time to complete the course.
Once you complete the course, you'll be able to sit for the final exam (which is taken online). The exam isn't tricky, but you'll need a passing grade of 75% to get certified and you can take the test up to three times. If you don't receive a passing grade after the third attempt, you'll be required to go back through the course again. The exam should take from 30 to 60 minutes to complete and consists of 75 multiple choice questions.
Upon successful completion of the course and exam, you'll receive a personalized badge and certificate. Your badge works with Mozilla's Open Badges Project, so it can be displayed in places that matter, including your website, email signature or LinkedIn profile. Plus you'll receive a full color certificate that's suitable for framing so you can display your achievement.

I'm relatively new to raw feeding. I have been feeding my dog raw for 5 years now and last year I turned my passion into a small little business in South Africa. The course was well put together and I enjoyed every minute of it. I can't wait for the advanced course. Dana Scott you did an amazing job. I feel I have gained so much reassurance and direction and my clients benefit from it all the time! Thank you so much.
I have finally finished my Cert in Raw Dog Food Nutrition & it feels great!
Awesome info, I highly recommend doing it.
Thank you Dana and team ... For the hours and hours of research and for pulling all this wonderful information together ... Also for being a network hub for many inspiring animal health professionals and sharing so much information on your website so freely.
