I know there are some on YT who either cook for their dogs or feed the RAW diet and I have a couple of questions.

1. How long have you done this?

2. What about their health?

3. What about supplements in a cooked or raw diet?

4. Where do you find reliable recipes that are guaranteed to include everything your dog needs?

5. I've requested samples of the Nature's Variety Raw Instinct food. Have any of you tried, or do you use this food in place of doing everything yourself? Possibly in conjunction with a home cooked or raw diet?

6. I'm used to free feeding dry kibble to the boyz. With a raw or home cooked diet how do you know what amount to feed them and how many times a day do you feed?

I have a couple of books but they have some pretty involved gourmet meals in them and I'm not looking for the fancy stuff...just a healthy, tried and true, simple daily diet for my boys that will meet their nutritional needs.
