I know sooo many people who truly believe they are feeding their dog the best by feeding Beneful because "it's colorful and looks like it has real veggies in it!"

Sooo for that, I think it's good to at least get people *thinking*. But I really hated the pushy raw feeding in it. I wish they would've spoken of homecooking more, to be honest, because I sort of feel like this is likely the healthiest option for our pets if done correctly. Also, they did not touch on properly balancing raw. Raw can be fantastic for some dogs but there is a balancing act to it and it has to be done properly or you could have a very sick dog. I feel like they kind of... left that out.

It wasn't a bad doc but I think it should have been more well rounded.
I haven't seen it but I agree with what your saying. I wish Callie would have ate it when I tried home cooking. I love it as far as knowing what they are eating. Joey is really weird he will ONLY eat kibble doesn't like other meats or anything. He will eat a few bites of veggies and fruits but only really likes dry food. I have never heard of a dog like that. That's one of the things my instructor and the intergrative vet brought up as some of the cons (balancing). My cousins gf thinks she can just throw a raw chicken down and that's it. There is a lot that goes into feeding things other then balanced kibble. I hate the pushing of raw as the ''only'' good food.
