Guest guest Posted September 7, 2003 Report Share Posted September 7, 2003 I saw some emails a while back regarding those of you who feed your animals raw foods and thought I'd share this company info with you. www.pepperdogz.com You may have heard of them, although they said it's a relatively new company. They had their booth set up at Bark in the Park. No cat food as of yet. The food is Hormone, antibiotic, filler, GMO, added sugar, added flavor free.

Guest guest Posted September 7, 2003 Report Share Posted September 7, 2003 I have not seen this particular dog food, but we feed Ziggy Raw Advantage. It is made on Camano Island and I often meet the woman making it at the Everett co-op where she is buying organic vegetables to add to the organic raw meat they use. http://www.rawadvantagepetfood.com/ Personally I do not have a problem with feeding my dog raw meat. Some folks do, but I believe they are meant to be carnivores although Ziggy does enjoy stealing my tomatoes off the vine and getting into the raspberry bushes!

Guest guest Posted September 7, 2003 Report Share Posted September 7, 2003 From Sue Aberle (she's having challenges with ): In regards to the raw dog food with meat: When we to the raw vegan diet as the true diet for humans because of our physiology, we also have to accept that dogs and cats are true carnivores. When we listen to Loren Lochman's reasoning, that humans are not built to catch, kill, and devour meat, we also must accept that dogs and cats ARE built to catch, kill, and devour meat, and do so in the wild (and in domestic animals as well, how many of us have needed to clean up the remains of small furry mammals and birds from our carpet??). I am feeding our kitties raw food, I buy Amore, Nature's Variety, and Steve's freeze-dried. They all involve raw meat, as well as raw eggs, veggies, and other good ingredients. I have to trust that these products are made from high-quality meat from animals that were well-treated and humanely slaughtered. I know that there is one brand of vegetable-based raw dog food available at All The Best, but I am unaware of any vegetable-based raw cat food.

Guest guest Posted September 7, 2003 Report Share Posted September 7, 2003 As omnivores, dogs have a more diverse range of foods they can thrive on than humans or cats, for example. I do know people who feed their dogs exclusively plant foods, so I'm not going to say it can't be done. From what I've seen, however, dogs seem to do best on a diet that includes both plant and animal foods. I've fed my dog a diet of raw bones, meat, offal, eggs and veggies for 6-7 years and he hasn't been to the vet once. The commercially prepared raw foods are good but expensive. They contain a lot of costly ingredients (supplements) that aren't necessary, imo. These foods are great for working people who just want to open a package and who can afford the price tag. They do tend to reinforce the notion that raw feeding is mysterious, time-consuming and complicated, however. It's easier to raw feed than most people think. I hold classes occasionally in my home to demonstrate and answer questions. Once people see how it's done, they realize it doesn't have to be left to the " scientists " (ha) in the pet food industry. I have a 7-page handout on dog nutrition that I can send to anyone who's interested, just email me at nmlenz.
