There are risks to feeding raw, just as there are risks to feeding kibble and home-cooked. No one seems to mention the risks of feeding kibble, or homecooked perhaps because pet food companies and others that homecook have been very good at making people believe kibbled and homecooked food is a risk-free diet for their pets. |
what are the risks of feeding raw? it seems that most of the sites talking about raw diet for dogs only focus on the benefits, and most of them do not mention the risks that owners should know about.
i think a lot of us who are interested in dog nutrition know about the possible risks/dangers of feeding kibble and home cooking, but we dont' know about raw diet because most just don't talk about the possible risks of feeding raw.
