I found this which I thought very interesting IS A RAW FOOD DIET THE ANSWER
Thank you i read this with interest but am still going to try the raw and see how it goes.

I don't have a problem with people feeding their dogs whatever they want (which in reason obviously draw the line at MacDonalds ) and don't see why anyone should care what I feed my dogs, they are fit, healthy in good condition and eat all their meals with relish so I'm perfectly content with my choice of feeding.
Don't want to upset you being a vegi. But my dog's on a phesant shoot, so they will be having phesant the season, but i will pluck them first in case they eat them on a shoot day!. thank you everyone this thread has helped me alot both the pro's and con's
