I believe mixing the two is bad because of the differences in digestion.

Best regards,
Sean

My 2 bullmastiff pups aren't pooping. I have seen some chalky and I know that means to
much bone, but nothing like I am used to with kibble of course. What can I give them to
loosen them up a bit? My one BM takes her time eating and her sister gobbles it up
practically whole.

The fish thing did not go well by either dogs or cats any suggestions on how I can slip it
in...just a little added with meat meal perhaps?

My welsh terrier likes to eat his own crap, and he craps like 6 times a day. I just started raw feeding with yesterday's dinner. He is 16 weeks old. will raw feeding help me GET RID OF THIS GROSS PROBLEM?
Also, I had asked about chicken. I had fed him cooked chicken twice in the past and both times he threw up. Is is possible he is allergic to chicken? I want to feed him some raw chicken, last night and this a.m. he had cut up london broil raw. He's already crapped twice this morning, and I caught him eating the second one. He ate about half of it before I caught him. I HATE that habit and want to get rid of it.
I heard that raw fed dogs crap a lot less, so that should help me, right?

Time to be the unusual human.
Give your dogs a chicken!!
You'll never regret it if you just DO IT NOW!
You will regret waiting if you take more time to faffle around with
kibble.
There's plenty of time to educate yourself while your dogs are reaping
the benefits of a species appropriate whole prey model diet.

Give raw the 3 months the vet told you was needed for the kibble to
work. Your dogs have waited years of their lives for kibble to work
for them.
Please.

Giselle? You seem to know a lot, I am also in NJ, with welsh terrier Guinness. I have fed him cooked chicken on two previous occasions and both times he vomited. Do you think he could be allergic to chicken? Will raw chicken have a different effect? Should I remove the skin? thanks....

Dave,

Your dog's problems cannot correct themselves on the diet they are on.
They have chronic disease now. It may require homeopathic treatment in
addition to a real diet, but the diet should come first. Convenience
or logistcs can be a legitimate issue if you are spoiled by bags of
dry, but one you should be able to adapt to as well. If health is the
main issue, then it's a slam dunk.

Hey, JMHO (and admitting I have guilt from what I now consider to be
improper care of my previous pets). ;^)

Good luck!

Daisy
