38. “Home cooking for your pet is harder than you think. I once saw a dog who was fed a home-cooked diet of chicken breast and vegetables for a year, and his bones became so weak that his jaw broke. If you would like to cook for your pet, find a veterinary nutritionist who can help guide you, or check out balanceit.com.”—Monica Revel, DVM, a vet in West Hollywood, California. Maybe this needs to be posted so people will understand how important it is to get the recipe from a nutritionist!

| Interesting! I disagree with this: 6. “The reason your pet is fat is because you are too. I would never say that to someone in an exam room, but the fact of the matter is, if you have an owner who overeats and is inactive, they are very likely to have an obese pet.”—Oscar Chavez, DVM. I'm not obese, or anything, but not in great shape either... but my dog is in fantastic shape!! I wish I had his figure, LOL! When I eat crap food, it's my own fault, but Jackson is my responsibility and doesn't have a choice, so I'm going to make sure he's well exercised and fed, as it's not his fault he's got me as an owner haha! I'm responsible for his life and well being.

| I was kinda happy to see 25 because that's pretty much how I feel about it plus with yorkies they can have such long facial hair I could not imagine the germs that sit in that hair and get on everything they touch. 25. “Some people are really into a raw-food diet for pets, but it’s a huge public health hazard. Think about it: You have raw meat, you’re touching it, your dog touches it, and then your dog goes and licks the baby. I’ve had two patients die and two patients get really sick from it.”—Amber Andersen, DVM, a vet at Point Vicente Animal Hospital in Rancho Palos Verdes, California.
