[rawfeeding] raw feeding when you are not in the city

***MODERATOR'S NOTE: PLEASE SIGN YOUR MESSAGES.***

Hi all,
I just joined the group and I am new to raw feeding. actually my dog isn't raw fed right
now. I am very interested, I just need to do all my research and plan for this. My dog is a
year old Kelpie/heeler mix, she is the best and very healthy, energetic, etc. She goes with
me everywhere- she has never ever been left alone. we have walked long distances
together and traveled the country in the less than a year we have been together. because
of our lifestyle I have a couple questions:

-how much more expensive is it to feed raw than the all natural high end k**ble types of
food? ofcourse this varys im sure, but a ballpark would be nice.

-I am someone who travels a lot, I camp a lot (as in for months at a time), and live in my
car sometimes too. Can this type of lifestyle work logistically with raw food? how can I
keep raw meat that needs to be frozen in my car? how can I bring enough raw food with
me camping?

-and along those same lines how important is it that the raw diet be fed raw and not
cooked? if it neednt be raw the meat could travel and I could still maintain the 10%
organs/75%-80% meat diet this list recommends.

-I have read about dehydrated raw food diets (thehonestkitchen.com), of what quality diet
is that by raw feeding standards?

so, wow. maybe you can tell im a little overwhelmed by all the info. I want to do the very
best for my dog, but I am not a hunter and also not a rich city/suburban type. thanks for
any help. this group is an amazing wealth of info.
