I asked if she'd ever seen cases of dogs getting sick from eating raw and she said yes. I was disappointed. I like the idea of raw.
My vet wasn't thrilled either. I had them in a couple weeks ago and while we were there they got weighed. We were just there for a nail trim so i asked them to be weighed because I had switched their diet. I thought they had gained. They both gained almost a pound in 4 wks! I had them on the medallions and instinct. He asked what I switched to and he told me to be very careful. He said the ecoli can be passed on to humans. He said that the prepared is different then being in the wild. So......
