babette says,
Re Raw Diets: A lot of agility competitors, trainers and just general dog owners in the Portland area have their dogs on a raw diet. I have one on it (the other is a puppy and I haven't put him on it yet). There is a lot of info out there, Planet Dog has pamphlets. My vet isn't excited about the raw diet---but the dog that is on it is fine.
