    You've Heard Raw Food Causes Aggression?

    Nope, creates love. Does for Oban. When he has a raw meal he usually finishes by humping Poppa. We are slowly going back to raw, as per Vet. Tonight Oban tried chicken backs with some raw, blenderized veggies and Poppa just got a work out.

    For any who don't know, Poppa is his big teddy bear. Poppa Bear often gets a work out after a good walk too.

    haha aww

    actually one podcast i am listening to says she has seen big behavioural changes in anxious/aggressive/easily over threshold dogs when on nature diets (cooked or raw). but there is no study or data on it (just her experience as a trainer with her clients)

    We've been feeding raw for over five years now with no aggression issues.....Except for those pesky tree rats (squirrels) don't think anyone likes them.
    It's one of those old wives tales that went viral on the internet, although some dogs may exhibit a form of "food aggression" maybe because they see their raw food as a higher value than a bowl of kibble the dog will be more protective of it. IMOP
    Thankfully we don't have any of those issues.
