| Raw Feeding for Dogs ~ Video Guide This is a 4 part training video on how to feed your dog a safe & balanced raw diet in less than an hour. The 1st video plays instantly & the rest just needs your email address & the link will be sent to your inbox. Even if you're not going to feed raw, this is a great video to learn about the benefits of raw fresh whole foods for our companions. Raw Feeding For Dogs – Video Guide — Dogs Naturally Offers I personally feed 100% premade raw, Primal and Stella & Chewy's (so much easier for me). They've been eating 100% raw for a little over a year now (wish I started earlier), but I started incorporating raw food in their diet back in 2012. Since eating 100% raw food, they do not get digestive upsets, ever. We have not been to the vet this past year for any tummy upsets, except for their annual exam (which checked out ). Best part...no fleas! I tried researching 'why do raw fed dogs not get fleas?' & all I could find in the world wide web was that healthy dogs do not attract fleas. My next goal is to give them RMB (raw meaty bones)...have to muster up the courage to give it to them. We tried green tripe , they loved it! Also fed them raw (including the yolk) organic cage free eggs but skipped the shell...not @ my comfort level yet. Oh & they adore raw goat milk! If you've been thinking about it or wanted to try it, just do it! Incorporate raw food into your dog &/or cat's diet. It comes in convenient frozen or freeze dried forms (sprinkled on top of kibble)...or go real raw, like 'Frankenprey'. All the best for optimum doggie (& kitty) health!

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | Great resource, thanks for posting this Jenny ! It said some *very* interesting things. One thing it said that I too always say is that "none of us really know what a 100% Complete Diet really means for dogs" - bc we don't...nutrition for dogs is a best guess, it's really not a science. Also interesting how she claims that she couldn't find any deaths caused by raw foods as compared to kibble deaths (of which there are many documented). I don't think that's exactly true, per se, bc we know of dogs who have choked on and died from consumable RMBs....but maybe she's not counting Prey Model in her estimations. Anyway, interesting! I wonder what type of diets they'll be recommending in the next videos...I'm thinking maybe a homemade raw diet...?

It's probably my biggest concern, could be irrational fear...I know Mimi will do great, she's such a dainty eater, tastes everything like she's savoring it & chews thoroughly. But she did swallow a big chunk of raw hide when she was a puppy. Scared me to death! I worry about my other 3, Momo is a swallower & Turbo is a super strong chewer. Princess is good @ biting things off in small pcs, but she is both sometimes, strong chewer & swallower. I think I'll have a coronary while watching them like a hawk! I'll start w/the bison backbones that you give your guys...probably will have the butcher cut them into bigger pcs, just in case! I plan to keep the 3 in an ex-pen (separately) so I can take the bone away if I need to. Mimi doesn't try to run away or hold the chew in a lock jaw if I try to take it away.

Donating YT 3000 Club Member | Thanks for posting. . . As you know we feed Freeze dried raw, Primal and Stella and Chewy. I love I can take it anywhere. I do not have to worry about refrigeration. . . I am going to start getting some frozen to mix it up. . . I still nervous about giving him bones. He is a heavy chewer and afraid he is going to choke. . .
