Right, i have read all the above websites and many of the websites connected to those ones and.....my god......Its a wonder these dogs actually enjoy living with us when all we do is esentially feed them agar plates for bacteria and disease to breed and infect thier very internal workings.

I have a friend that has just graduated to some respected vet school in london and she too said that after her module in nutrition...she felt ill knowing what have been going into her dogs she has had all her life.

So, I got to get daisy off these evil death biscuits. So i can waltz into a butchers, pick up some non-flavoured meat, freeze it for a day or two, thaw it and introduce it to her ? From what i have read starting on white meat and minced varieties is a good start untill they produce consistently dark, solid stools and then its time to get slowly inventive with egs, organ meat, solid uncooked non-weight bearing bones with meat on it ?

My question really is however, Daisy has become VERY good at holding her movements untill the right time. Obviously while she is getting used to her new diet her digestive system is going to be up in arms, but once she is used to it and happily eating RAW foods, can i expect the same kind of control over her movements or is it just fact that it moves through her more efficiently and is thus sat there waiting sooner?

What are the arguments for all of you that have researched RAW diets and have chosen to stay away from them ?

Moreover, what are the arguments for all you people who have assumed the man-made biscuits in pretty packaging are the best thing for your beloved pets ?

Im not critisising you, i am just interested in what the people on the other side of the fence are thinking.
