Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: What makes Radiant Select specifically beneficial for skin and coat health?

Ans: Radiant Select combines 3.5% omega-3 fatty acids and 0.70 mg/kg biotin from salmon oil, flaxseed, and pollock to support keratin production and coat shine. The biotin promotes hair strength and skin barrier function, while omega-3s reduce inflammation and enhance overall coat luster.

Q2: Can I mix Radiant Select with my dog's current kibble?

Ans: Yes, Radiant Select works excellently as a nutrient-dense mixer. Use 5-10% as a topper on existing food to boost coat and skin nutrition without a complete dietary transition, especially beneficial for picky eaters.

Q3: How long does it take to see visible coat improvements?

Ans: Most dogs show noticeable coat improvements within 4 to 6 weeks of consistent daily feeding. Biotin and omega-3 accumulation support new hair growth with increased shine, texture, and skin health.

Q4: Is Radiant Select suitable for dogs with food sensitivities?

Ans: Radiant Select contains fish and beef as primary proteins. If your dog has diagnosed allergies to these proteins, consult your veterinarian. The freeze-dried, whole-food ingredient list suits many dogs with grain sensitivities.

Q5: What is the calorie content and daily feeding cost?

Ans: Radiant Select contains approximately 201 kcal per cup. A 5 lb dog requires 0.67 cups daily (135 calories), while a 50 lb dog needs 3.33 cups daily (670 calories). Adjust based on individual metabolism.

Q6: How do I transition my dog to Radiant Select from kibble?

Ans: Gradually transition over 10 to 14 days: Days 1-3 replace 25%, Days 4-6 replace 50%, Days 7-9 replace 75%, Day 10+ serve 100%. Extend to 14-21 days for dogs with digestive sensitivity.

Q7: What distinguishes freeze-dried raw from conventional kibble?

Ans: Freeze-drying preserves nutrients, enzymes, and bioavailable amino acids without high-heat damage or artificial preservatives. Unlike kibble, Radiant Select retains 3.5% omega-3 and biotin without synthetic additives.

Q8: Are there specific dog breeds that benefit most from Radiant Select?

Ans: All dog breeds benefit from Radiant Select, especially those with dry skin, dull coats, or breeds predisposed to skin conditions. Double-coated breeds (Labs, Golden Retrievers, German Shepherds) see particularly visible coat improvements.

Q9: How should I store opened bags of Radiant Select?

Ans: Seal opened bags tightly and store in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight and temperature fluctuations. Use opened bags within 2 to 3 weeks for optimal freshness and nutritional quality.

Q10: Can I use Radiant Select as a complete diet or only as a supplement?

Ans: Radiant Select is formulated as a complete and balanced adult dog food and may be fed as the sole diet. It also works excellently as a 5-10% nutritious mixer with existing kibble for gradual introduction or coat-support enhancement.
