Whether vets "approve" of it is really neither here nor there, in most cases, since the majority of vets know very, very little about nutrition. And don't even get me started on the word "acceptable'!!!
Last time I checked, the world wasn't still flat, was it?
HERE'S THE THING: a dog's health due to nutrition can be screwed up by feeding KIBBLE, HOME COOKING, OR RAW. If you don't educate yourself about kibble, your dog's health will pay; if you don't educate yourself about homecooking or raw, your dog's health will pay.
There are methods of feeding extremely healthful diets using raw, homecooked, or kibble - and I sure wish people would refrain from BASHING the raw feeders, assuming that they are less in-the-know than others. I just hate seeing that here. If anything, raw feeders have probably spent more time researching their feeding method than anyone, simply due to the nature of the diet and bc of the whole "world-is-flat" mentality they face.
And for those vets who grumble and bash even "homecooking" - boy would I be suspicious of them - bc kibble is "real, home-cooked" food that is processed to death, riddled w/ additives, made in questionable factories, and was invented to save money, it was NOT invented for nutrition reasons.
Just want to say: I loves me the raw feeders, the homecookers and the kibble feeders!
