    Jackie, as a fellow Veterinary Professional, I would advise you to stay out of this argument. People have their own views, and if they would like to stay with them we can do nothing to force them. It is a sad fact that people would rather go against the advice of knowledgeable people because they are "part of the establishment", etc. it will be pointless to force them to change.

    Im totally with you, but you can't win this argument...Ive tried and failed many times

    You're in school. You're not licensed, which basically means you're no different than the rest of us. You can't be a professional when you aren't one at all, I'm sorry about that.

    And as a fellow animal enthusiast, I would advise you to study a lot more on the topic. Animal enthusiasts don't come up with their own solid views because they're stupid. And that includes you.

    You can't force me to change because I grew up with a whole country of dogs on raw food. You think they sell kibbles in the Philippines? Nope they don't. Unless you pay an arm and a leg for them at the fancy pet shops that sell shock collars and dog earrings. And we are quite active in the Kennel Club show rings.

    So people saying, "Don't feed your dog raw!"... is, to the rest of the world, just another American idiot.

    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO HOO what a ride!"
