This thread started out as a discussion on grains in kibble. I for one, use such foods and like to dispell the myths about kibble as much as I can. |
Yup! There are such myths about all the feeding types and they do nothing but polarize us...so I think it's important that we all try to dispel these myths when they come up.
I hate to see people come down on kibble. Because hello? Kibble is
real food. It's real food that's been dried and processed (not a bad word!) down to a usable and safe form for dogs and their owners...it's still REAL food.

The bottom line is feed what you believe to be best because if something goes wrong you know you did your best for your dog.
I have no idea where this idea about vets recommending inferior food so that they see animals more is coming from. But I do find it to be an unfair assumption. I'm sure a handful have less than pure intentions when dealing with clients. However, that is not the majority. |
I actually never feel like others don't understand....I know lots of raw feeders on here, so I never feel like the understanding isn't there. I just see people who don't
agree with raw feeding - which is totally fine
(but I feel they understand raw feeding,
usually; but there are those who make opinions without even learning about it, and *that* is annoying as heck).
As far as vets wanting their clients to eat kibble so dogs are more sick? No way. Pretty sure that those whose *dream* it is to be a vet (such as EllieMay) don't dream about making dogs ill.
