Re: Raw Diet

A raw diet is feeding your dog or cat raw meat and bones, no dry food and no processed wet food.

The pork issue is a bit of a myth nowadays. There used to be concerns over trichinosis which is a parasite that affected pigs and caused serious problems in anything that ate it. Nowadays this is eradicated from pigs bred in the UK. There is still a possibility that wild game especially boar can pass it on but most suppliers of game freeze it for at least 2 weeks to ensure that the parasite is dead.
