re: Question for dog owners. Do any of you feed your dog a raw diet?

JMO, but you are looking to fix a problem that doesn't exist. Sure, some dogs need a special diet, and avoiding corn/wheat is important to others, but many dogs do just fine on the lowest price POS kibble their human can find.
I would just buy one of the many(now) available foods with no corn/wheat. My dog's ears problems improved a bit when i did that.

Yup. Feed my Boykin a grain-free diet because she has skin issues, but your average pup couldn't give two shits. Now if you are training a dog for high level competition, then, like a world class human athlete, their diet needs to be tailored to that. But your average pet won't know the difference most of the time.

The way i'm looking at it. I'm looking to avoid health problems down the road.
I grew up with a beagle that lived to be 16 years old. She ate nothing but kibble and table scraps. By age 9 she was lazy as hell and had terrible breath and bad teeth.
She never got fat, because we fed her once a day, but she was still lazy as hell
ETA: I think some people are getting the wrong idea from this thread. I'm not saying dog food is wrong, or that you don't care about your dog if you feed it bagged dry food. Like I said, did it for years. I'm just saying it seems like raw/natural diet might be better for the dog, and was wondering if anyone had experience with it. The answer to this is obviously no, so that's that.
