Hey Jess,I’m no expert on the subject,but the idea of feeding raw meat always made me kinda nervous.Maybe the dogs digestive tract can handle bacteria,but what if my dog eats raw meat that is tainted with bacteria,and then gives my 6 year old a big kiss on the lips? Or licks his hands? NO THANKS, I’ll stick with cooking it. JMO http://xfinity.comcast.net/articles/news-health/20110415/US.MED.Tainted.Meat/

I just wish I could get my hands on that guy. Saying I have a mental issue because I do not agree with them (raw feeders) is stepping WAAAY over the line. I am a vet and I have fought for this country but I’ll tell ya what, I did not fight for people like this.

Jess you sound a lot like me. I think feeding a good quality kibble is very effective. And not all dogs tolerate raw very well no matter how slowly you transition so I can understand your arguement. And I agree w/ you, I would dare anyone with a shepherd to compare pics w/ your dog. That kibble fed Tony is a dandy, so brush your shoulders off too comments like that and keep up the good fight man.

They crossed the line when they say the owner of dog food project has no clue what she is talking about, they really have proved to me what they are all about. 16 years of college isn’t good enough for those people and they have none… I argued with one clown about oatmeal, she states and believes oatmeal is not good for humans. The sad part is people buy into this crap. It really gets old when every single thread about kibble gets HY-JACKED by the raw feeders stating how dumb we are to feed kibble. It really makes them upset when you ask for proof that raw feeding is better than a high grade kibble. Because their is “”none”" and when I ask for pictures of their dogs of course they can’t produce any. They call me names but that doesn’t matter. I am gonna make fewer and fewer visit’s here. Hopefully I can find a decent forum somewhere.

Make sure you don’t argue with the raw feeders here in the forums. Make sure you believe everything these “”idiots”" say, because they are gods, just ask them. Not one shred of evidence that they have ever produce, but they think they know more than vets and professional dog nutritionist’s. Yeah and the jerk even says I am a head case, what a loser!!!!

Jess,

Here’s a little secret I learned years ago, if your dog inhales the dog food down quickly, try mixing a tablespoon or two of canned dog food in his kibble that will help wonders.
