Google "100% RAW diet dogs" and then google "BARF diet dogs"  100% RAW is a diet that believes carbs in the form of grains are bad for dogs and only feeds 100% meat/bone diet.  (which I subscribe to)

The BARF diet uses natural grains and vegetables as well as meat (sometimes cooked and sometimes raw).

You have to decide what you believe in and what you feel is better.

I did find the RAW book that convinced me to make the switch.  It is easy reading and can be read in one day.  If anyone wants to borrow it I can bring it to EXPO.


NOTE:  If you decide to switch from kibble to 100% RAW the first few days will be rough on your dog.  The diarrea that is produced is the most vile smelling substance known to man.  I consider myself to have a stomach of steel and have (in my career) dealt with human corpses in all stages of decomposition and never even got close to getting sick.  The dog diarrea produced on the first few days of feeding a dog 100% RAW will gag me every time.  I only say this as a word of caution for those that plan on making the switch on a dog that comes in or sleeps in the house or mud room.  TRUST ME....you dont want to have to clean that mess!  After a couple days the stool turns solid and chalky and has very little smell.
