Raw is really interesting; even if you never feed it, it's just interesting to learn about. I have a bunch of links, but you've probably already collected them all, lol!
With all the switches to raw I've seen here, I almost *never* hear of vomiting (unless there is an underlying health issue that is uncovered) - it really should not happen. Some stool changes, sure - some toxins can be "purged" that way, just like in humans. But not vomiting. Vomiting is something that happens w/ food poisoning, ya know? If my babies were vomiting from diet changes, ooooh, you can be sure we never would've changed, lol!
What is neat about raw meat, is that it contains the enzymes - instead of being cooked out - so it's pretty contained. But yes, any meat will grow more doo-hickies even in the fridge. And, a dog should be able to handle a few days worth of doo-hickies just fine. Technical, huh?
