Success with Raw

[Sookie]

I don't give them anything except the raw nuggets. Kalina does get 1/4 tsp of Missing Link but Matty does not. I give my girls Primal frozen nuggets and they contain the following:
Beef, Beef Hearts, Beef Livers, Ground Beef Bones, Organik Kale, Carrots, Yams, Broccoli, Apples, Cranberries, Apple Cider Vinegar, Parsley, Coconut Oil, Kelp, Alfalfa, Salmon Oil, Garlic and Grapefruit Seet Extract. That's just an example for the beef - the other meats have different vegis and fruits in them.

Matty has been on raw since she was 12 weeks old and she is doing just great.

Hope that helps a little bit.

Dogs are carnivores - they don't need veggies. They can even be hard for them to digest. Giving a piece of carrot or something as a treat is ok, but they don't NEED them.

Thanks for clearing that up for me, this is all a little overwhelming. I'm always nervous when we try anything new. Especially since Bailey's never actually had any problems with the food she eats now (wellness) but i just want to give her the very best. There's a pet store near me that sells the Nature's Variety Medalions (sp) and everytime i'm there i'm so tempted to buy them but i chicken out. Does anyone know how many pieces of the NV a 5 lb yorkie would need a day?? I've been free feeding so i'm not sure how much would be "enough"
