where you eat raw foods only. it’s meant to be good for weight-loss apparently. i saw about it on tv – another one of america’s crazy diets.

Raw meat, some raw veggies and fruits, from time to time, etc. There’s a yahoo group called rawfeeding for dogs. You can join that and learn a lot.

Raw meat, fruits, and veggies are what dogs in the wild eat, though mostly raw meat and a few raw greens or fruits. While a dog on a raw diet will lose weight if overweight before they started raw, and not overfed once on raw, that’s FAR from the only thing it’s good for.

I have heard that it is not a good practice to feed either dogs or cats raw meat. It isn’t that beneficial to their health as some may think and it can cause them to be vicious. As far as a few faw vegetables and other healthy additives, about a 1/2 cup of cottage cheese, even a couple TBS of yogurt along with some grains. That is a good idea. A very good dog food is Bil-Jac. I have been involved with the company on a small level. Really do your homework on dog foods. They are not all what you think they are.

There are several different types of raw diets for dogs. There’s the Raw Meaty Bones diet which consists primarily of RAW meaty, consumable bones- such as chicken and turkey necks, backs, frames, and wings; lamb necks and ribs, ox tails, beef ribs, pork neck and ribs, whole rabbits, etc… bones soft enough for the dog to eat. The bones need to have a fair amount of meat on them- think of a chicken wing- there is some bone, some skin, some muscle meat, some fat. The bones are fed RAW, never cooked. Cooked bones can splinter and are very dangerous. Raw bones are relatively safe for dogs. The diet also includes offal (liver, heart, etc.) and fish.

The BARF (biologically appropriate raw food) is the above but with added fruit and veggies (about 20-25% of the diet). Fruit is normally mashes up because dogs don’t digest whole fruit/veg well.

The Prey model basically tries to feed whole animals whenever possible (rabbits, etc), fur included.

For more information, google Raw meaty bones, barf diet, or prey model raw diet. If you want a book, Tom Lonsdale’s Work Wonders is a good starting point for learning about the Raw Meaty Bones. For BARF, there are some books by Dr. Ian Billinghurst.
