They say the diet helps avoid disease such as: diabetes, heart and kidney failure as well as chronic illnesses like allergies, infections, digestive disorders, skin rashes and joint inflammation or arthritic conditions. I purshased one 1/4 lb. pkg. of ground tenderloin and gave some to Molly and she licked the plate clean and wanted more.  However I haven't spoken to my vet about this. Have any of you ever tried this diet and what do you think? The Web-site gives you alot of info on this diet. |
I've heard good things about raw diets, but I would go for chicken rather than beef, as beef is definitely higher in fat which can lead to pancreatitis in Yorkies. There are several companies that have raw food diets for dogs. The concept of raw meat grosses me out though.
