I want to start my dogs on a raw food diet. everyone says i'm being too "over the top"...?

As long as you took the time to do the research then I think it's a great idea. I personally did months of research before I switched my dogs to raw and they have never been happier. There seems to be a stigma with raw because a lot of people think that we wouldn't put that in our body so why our dogs? People don't understand that this is a fabulous diet for our let's. Plus this way we know what is going into our beloved pets bodies.
