myth

I feed raw BARF including table scraps and such. as far as begging goes you have to teach them not to beg, all dogs beg it's in their nature. there are some foods that are toxic todiogs such as grapes/rasins and a few others. you just have to be aware of what is and is not, it's part of knowing how to do the barf diet.

as far as his itching is concerned I have heard of a lot of people going to the BARF diet to "cure" food allergies resulting in lots of itching (in some cases scratching their hides raw) it seems to work. in australia apparently a lot of dogs including working dogs have never started getting kibble. it only started in america after WW1 and 2 and caught on as an easy feed. It's mostly byproducts you wouldnt even use to bake bread now. more than a fad lots of people are going to it.

ok no more soapbox for me tonight gotta finish mudding the basement.
