Everyone knows there are risks to feeding raw but it's about individuals weighing up the pros and cons and deciding what is best for their dogs. If you think the risks out weigh the benefits stick with a good quality commerial food. If you think the benefits outweigh the risks then make the switch to raw and ditch the death biscuits for good!

Re: Why Feed Raw?

We switched to raw about 6 weeks ago, including our puppy. And I can quite honestly say the positive changes already are amazing.

Neither has sloppy poo's anymore, my fuss pot boy eats every last scrap for the first time ever and his usually manky coat is starting to look wonderful (he suffers from dallie rash so can look really mangey)

Took me nearly 18 months of dithering and reading all sorts on the internet, but I never found one person that actually fed their pets on it have a bad thing to say about it.

Re: Why Feed Raw?

Tripe is fantastic stuff for dogs - I know thousands of dogs fed it and I have heard of 1 not liking it - I have fed it for years without one single problem!!!

Re: Why Feed Raw?

Tripe is the bovine stomach walls. Green tripe isn't bleached like the tripe you can see in the shops for human consumption. It's named green as the grass has stained it a greenish colour. Humans eat 3 out of the 4 stomachs inthe various tripes sold in butchers shops, green contains all 4.
