I'm a RAW feeder to my dog.
But I'm not going to sit and tell people it will work for their dog or there isn't risks involved with it. My vet that I'm going to when he found out, explained the risks to me, and I appreciated his input because that's what I'm paying him to do.
Just like I'd be paying him to recommend a RX food to me if my pet needed it.
Do I think vets are bias? Sure some are, but at the same too, they're recommending what they have seen worked for dogs over their years experience.
I don't think it's a conspiracy necessarily, but you can get a bad vet just like you can get a bad doctor. It is what it is, and they went through all of their schooling for a reason. I would trust my vet for anything Gizmo needed, and he understands my decision for how/what I feed my dog. Especially since he understands the amount of money I have spent in order to get Gizmo diarrhea free which is what this diet seems to be doing. |
