With no offense to anybody but I can understand that a dog who doesn't get raw foods outside of the occasional bone, does not really know or even see the incentive to "work for" his food. If kids eat McDonalds every day, they'd look at you funny, too if you'd present them with a carrot. Newcomers to raw will almost always resist to the change as k*bble is addicting, just like junk food. The dog has to be re-trained. My dogs won't touch kibble now and my oldest has never been a big fan of it in the first place. We went to somebody's house the other day who has a k*bble fed dog and my dogs passed his bowl after sniffing the contents. Even a diet of home cooked food is not the same as RAW or natural for our carnivore dogs for that matter. But we don't need to go into that issue here or now. But what I am saying is that some might have to show their dog how to devour a bone and even go through the hunger strike thing for a day or two before the dog will accept his new food source. But I promise that no dog will starve itself and WILL eventually chew his bones with delight!
My senior dog had teeth so bad that his gum line was openly bleeding daily! I tried petzlife and it just didn't give me the results that I was looking for. I will no longer subject my beloved friend to risky anesthesia induced dental cleanings as we almost lost him to that a couple of years ago. Since we feed prey model; bad breath gone, clean, healthy, pink gum line, white teeth!
