    Default Calling all RAW newbs!!!

    I need your help!

    Dude and Bucks Mamma started a thread about her dog's teeth change after a few months on raw feeding. This has sparked the interest in me to do a page or blog post on the PMR website about BEFORE and AFTER photos of dogs teeth.

    If any of you already have these photos...freaking share them!!!!

    If any of you newbs haven't taken photos yet....freaking do it!!!!

    The more photographic evidence we have of how well a raw diet can clean teeth the better!

    PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE help a girl out LOL

    Post em here, make your own thread...however!

    Unfortunately (for pictures sake, not Duke's sake haha) Duke's teeth weren't bad when we started raw! They might've been just a touch off-white/yellowy, but no build up etc. I only notice NOW that they are pearly white lol. Sorry I have no pics :( and I don't know if After pics are any good without the Before's haha

    Yogi's teeth were white when we started being he was only 15 months and had his teeth brushed daily. We are finishing week two but nothing to show but pearly whites.

    Don't have any. They were 4 month old puppies when they started raw...teeth were already pearly white. However, Nat, could you also add in photos of teeth on older dogs who have been on raw for a long time?

    I like that idea too. Those who have older dogs could be shown next to kibble fed dogs of the same age.

    Oh absolutely, but its just more "scientific" if we do pictures of before and after raw on the same dog.

    By all means....lets get some tooth pictures taken and documented!!!

    It was sad today at work, a cocker spaniel lost 16 of his teeth during his dental....he was only 9 years old. Poor fella

    Here's a picture of a 12 year old dachshund's teeth I cleaned up and extracted a few months ago....again, 16 extractions.

    Such a shame people do that to there dogs :-(

    Unfortunately like others above, we started raw with puppy teeth so her adult teeth have never seen kibble, and never will :-)
