I would encourage clients considering or already feeding a raw food diet to carefully review the literature on this trend. The studies that are based on verifiable science do not show a positive benefit to feeding raw. In addition, there are significant risks of infectious disease to the people in close contact to a dog or cat fed raw foods. We all want to do the best for our pets when it comes to their nutrition. Please don’t hesitate to contact the clinic if you have questions about your pet’s diet.
