The breeder I bought my dog from convinced me to feed my dog raw meat. I did so for one year and finally had to stop because he was getting sick too often.
I think the problem is finding a good source. Many dogs have died from this diet and every vet I went to gave me a really hard time about it. I read all the literature and believed in the theory, but in practice it wasn't working for my dog.

Coming from the US, I was very surprised when the vet said to feed raw meat. Our pets haven't had a problem, but I also don't think Salmonella and E. Coli are as big of a problem here as in the US. The other option would be to cook the meat. Carbs aren't particularly good for animals, or people.

Raw meat + my dog = diarrhea city.
She eats NutroMax and does great.
