Just think about what they would eat in the wild? Dogs are carnivors, they eat meats..... There are alot of fillers with little to no nutritional value. Ultimately, a raw diet would be best, but not everyone can, either they dont like the idea, or they cannot afford it (Im in the latter on that). I had never heard about a raw diet till a few months back when I joined another forum at http://www.dogwise.com/forums/. Its a good place to learn about the raw diet if your interested.

Thank you for your reply     greg

Because dogs have a shorter digestive tract then humans, they are less susceptible to things that would make us sick, like e coli and salmonella.....

 

Dogs can eat raw or frozen chicken, bones and all with no ill effect. The bones only become brittle after cooking.

Greg, I swear by it, but do your research.  I started because my 8 week old puppy wouldn't eat kibble.  Now 2 years later, she is a big healthy girl.  You need to make sure that your dogs are getting all of the supplements that may be missing in a raw diet.  Things I include - salmon oil, glucosmine, vitamin C, etc.
