Perhaps worth a read? Its also worth mentioning that when people fed dogs cooked scraps (along with raw bones and some raw foods) dogs had more freedom, they used to go out and catch rabbits, rodents and other whole prey to consume. The progression of dog ownership means that dogs no longer have the freedom to do that. |
I can't find that quote, but did a quick google, there are a lot of great links on this site.

It specifically addresses your point however, about dogs eating "prey". Meat that an animal comes across in the wild is not the same as the meat we provide for them...see article, it too may be worth a read.
Keep in mind, this is what I'm sending you after 2 minutes of googling. I'm sure I'll find the holes in it myself if I keep looking into it.
For me, until there is actual research supporting it, I'll wait. My dogs have all lived healthy lives (kibble's all that I've fed in my lifetime)
Hopefully, the research will show us that you all have found the right diet.
Oh, and Dr. Lonsdale has something to sell
