A friend of ours has a dog who has been on raw for nine yrs and had never had any dental work done, not even regular brushing and the teeth were in pretty good shape, no gnarly black junk and breath was decent.


I was always told that dogs cannot get salmonella and ecoli becuase of there very short digestive tract...But if a person with a weakend immune system were to handle the waste, they may come into contact with either germs.

Haha yeah, I have to admit I have been hesitant to receive kisses from my dogs since going raw... and there is definitely no longer kisses in the mouth! Okay, I have revealed too much, I am going to bed.
