    Yes, thanks @Levi for your well reasoned thinking and darned good advice! I get the sense that the science of dog feeding today is similar to the 1960’s where magazine ads professed that “4 out of 5 doctors recommend smoking Chesterfield cigarettes”.

    In my view Karen Becker makes the point best: kibble is a sustenance food yet 4 out of 5 vets (actually all 3 of the Vets I interact with) seem to favor kibble over the “evils” of feeding raw.

    But I also feel compassion for many who either have too little time, too little money, or too little information for making the move away from kibble diets.

    I have no desire to make this political and I only wish to stay in the learning mode when it comes to the care and feeding of our terrific four legged companions.

    Thanks for everyone who shared their thoughts and advice on this thread!!!
