I've heard that raw pork is discouraged, but I don't know that there are any absolutes.

Isn't pork bad for dogs? Thats the old tale I've always heard. Any truth to that?

This is true, dogs can get roundworm from raw pork. Sometimes my brother in law gives me pork that he buys in bulk and lets go bad in the freezer. I cook it then feed it to the dogs, never had a problem with that.

Any other meat should be ok raw though.

So far our dogs have had chicken,duck,rabbit,beef, and goose. No pork. If I can catch Mr. Groundhog this year.they'll have that.

That's where you use raw veggies,yogurt,eggs, molasses. We buy a lot of leafy greens{kale,romaine,broccoli,spinach,....) carrots,celery,etc..pretty much everything but onions. We have an industrial food processor and make a veggie glop. We have to make some tomorrow. I'll snap some pics. Tell you what-I'll snap pics of tomorrow's dinner.

I really wish it was as easy to get cats on a raw diet as it is for dogs. We tried once and one cat wouldn't touch. The other ate it just fine. Then we cleaned up exorcist-like vomit out of the carpet 10 minutes later.

Pork is bad for everybody. It's stated in the Old Testament.

BTW-Wife bought meat and veggies-enough for almost 2 months for 3 20 lb dogs and spent $50. She uses coupons and watches the weekly sale paper but you get the idea. Remember-you are buying the stuff most people don't buy. Chicken backs and necks,liver,gizzards,hearts etc...
