I thought the best thing to do for any out their curious about raw diets, would be to meet and learn from others feeding it.

I am fortunate to have a vet that supports feeding whole natural foods, whether it be raw or home cooking and I know many don't.

You need to get yourself informed and there are a few great places to start.

Whether you want to use a balanced pre-made, and there are loads out there, many of our members here use and love them and will gladly direct you to them if you were to ask.

My raw food supplier is totally amazing, love them to bits. Lori has a facebook page where all her clients and even non clients can join to get informed and these people have been feeding raw since back in the day (some of them could be considered antiques). They are a non judgemental and very warm group of people.

There are a few other great groups you can join on facebook

Raw feeding friends is wonderful. Many people come on just asking questions as they have concerns and they get loads of amazing information from well informed and long time raw feeders. Many of the members have some pets on raw and some on home cooking, dry or wet foods, so again very non-judgemental.

Rawsome and Holistic is a great warm hearted spot too, full of the curious and the educated

There is also a raw feeding group of yahoo groups, be warned these are hard core prey model feeders with some very determined ideas and opinions. Don't let that scare you because there is often great information shared. I highly doubt you'll ever find me picking a deer carcass off the highway and chucking it in my freezer for next month's entrees.
