to be fair to both sides i feed raw and i also do not lol
miss buffey and bentley eat raw (AFS mini patties or NV medallions) and do very well on it...they scarf it up, have lots of energy, are growing up at a nice pace and have little poops that have zero smell (really!)
gino does not do well on any raw i have given him (red meat, venison, lamb, chicken) .. it gave him horrible diarrhea ... he loved eating it though lol ... so gino gets canidae all life stages ... his poops are huge and smelly but no loose stools
