I'm not against it... And would try it, my problem is that I Don't always have the extra money to keep up... And I think feeding raw/wet food along with dry food it good to mix in once in a while. When I'm cutting up chicken or other meats I toss her some raw chunck.... I also put raw food out of my mind when I had my pitbulls cause when rehabing pitbulls feeding raw food can be a trigger...

When someone asks for help and I have had the personal experience of something changing because of a diet change, then I would be selfish not to let them know. Obviously they can choose not to try it! Why is raw feeding such an issue for so many ???...I just don't get it!!! It is simply a natural way to feed that provides so many bennefits...it's not a political or religious issue for goodness sakes...it is just simple common sense...to feed an animal the way their systems were designed to take in nutrition. If you want to continue feeding what you do...fine with me!!! If you have health issues with your animals it is only wise to look at why and try what will fix it. If you have no health issues with them then you don't need to fix or change anything. Don't fix it unless it's broken but don't jump on those that have found answers to some real issues! Personally you can feed whatever you want...it is your right as an animal owner...but then I should get the same consideration...and I should be able to share PERSONAL experiences that work!

I personally don't have an oppinion one way or the other re raw feeding, but it seems that the raw feeders on this group are more the ones who refuse to accept any way other than raw feeding. Seems every issue or question someone has, someone comes back with the only possible answer is to feed raw.......
