Evidently, it triggers the dog's immune system to attack the dog's own nerve tissue. More food for thought in the raw feeding debate. I'll read the article in greater detail later...
I don't often share things like this, but I trust Skep Vet and when I read it, it really did sound very credible.
Thanks, Phil...always appreciate your reviews.
BTW: I haven't had a chance to read the things you sent...just been SO busy lately
