Re: German Shepherd diet hijack

[Anonymous]

What do you actually want? Simple, polite answers – as you can easily read at the bottom of the last posts I made

What dogs do you have? At this point – none. I’m waiting for a new dog at the moment.

What do you feed your dogs? Whatever I think best for them at the time

Are they involved in Schutz? No – it’s irrelevant.

Do you have an ulterior motive? Yes. I want to be able to generate a decent diet for my new dog – that’s proven and not a result of a load of old wives tales.

What age have your dogs lived to? The last one (GSD) 8 years – had a degenerative disease of the spine – possibly inherited. Prior to that a 16 yo dachshund

What health systems do you follow to keep them in shape? Normal exercise, regular health checks, diet according to need.

Are you a pet food salesman? No – as I’ve previously said – I’m trying to get evidence for a natural diet. All I’m actually getting is sweetpea trying to shout me down (probably because I’d think her dogs are freaks – see previous discussion on GSDs) and a shed load of stupidity.

So, as I’ve answered all your questions – answer mine – where’s the independent evidence of the value of a raw food diet?
