    I don't get any comments from my family but I have from the vet. One of them at the clinic was not at all certain it was a good idea and was relieved that I did not feed him only raw but also...

    That's exactly why we switched to longevity. The jugs of supplements that had to be refrigerated were taking over in our fridge! It seems like a lot of powder if you have a large dog but we use it...

    When I have to have someone else feed them, I pre-measure and bag up each meal in it's own ziploc baggie, label it with their name and which meal it is. Then all they have to do is dump in a bowl. ...

    Nope, no one comments on my choices. The ones that do get the "once you pay for my dogs' food bill, then you have a right to comment" which shuts them up.

    I switch mine between kibble and raw...

    Yep, sometimes. But I don't get into arguments with them. It's just the way it is, my dog is raw fed - and no one's disgust will change that, because I don't care if they are disgusted!

    Nope, they do think I am pretty "weird" in general when it comes to my dogs though. Probably raw is one of the least strange things I've done in their opinion, LOL. Even though they all have dogs...

    No, I don't get grief. I did get questions 'cause we changed pretty quickly. I didn't get grief when I used a prong either. Or when I left him intact. I think the secret is my hair. It's pretty...

    I mostly just get, "OMG - what about the bones? Won't those kill them???"

    A couple people think it's gross, but they also eat all of their food from boxes because it's also gross that fresh...

    Wow, so much good stuff up above I have only one thing I can think to add. Check out raw dog food suppliers near you. They may have a cheaper supply of the meats you need and they may be a valuable...

    Believe me, I also thought my dog looked fantastic on kibble but the change after a few months on raw was amazing. You won't believe your eyes!

    Hi,

    First of all, congrats on taking a step into raw! I am sure you won't regret it!



    Sounds like a good plan. I switched to raw cold turkey. Starting with only one protein source (chicken)...

    I feed PMR and don't know much about BARF, but can answer the question about the Omega 3's. Yes, if you are feeding primarily chicken, I would add salmon oil. Omega 3's are naturally occurring in...
