I really like her so far . I don't really agree w/ her as far as "digestive confusion" (not a real term we ever use in the medical field) where she says the gut can get confused by feeding a protein (raw) w/ a starch (kibble), bc the stomach can definitely digest both just fine at the same time...it just uptakes different chemicals to digest each one. I'd say any upset is more due to being sensitive to an individual ingredient and/or a sensitive tummy in general in an individual dog. She's a really good speaker, btw . I like that she supports raw. Does she do a website or just the videos?
This is Dr. Karen Becker's website. I get daily emails from her. Some people object to her because she is associated with Dr. Mercola. I thought you'd find this particularly interesting because she writes about fox tails. I hope your baby is doing better.

Why Foxtails Are So Dangerous to Pets

I agree with you about digestive confusion. The largest portion of Katie's diet is from home cooking. Because she won't eat in the morning before I go to work, I leave out a little kibble topped with a little Stella and Chewy's, Primal, or Orijen dehydrated frozen raw (dry). It doesn't upset Katie's stomach.
