I feed my dog all the raw chicken she wants and then some. The only benefit I have noticed is that it saves me a lot of money since I raise chickens(about 600,000 a year). I also keep out plenty dry food for her because she is kinda like me and gets burnt out on chicken. One other thing, she likes the feet the best.

Unlike 20 years ago there are a lot of high quality foods to choose from today, example is the food mentioned in the previous post, it appears to be a high quality feed. I feed Innova "EVO" to a dog that had chronic loose stool problem. This is the food that I settled on after trying many high end foods.
Turkey, Chicken, Turkey Meal, Chicken Meal, Potato, Herring Meal..... (no grains)
Protein 42.0% (not a typo, this food is mostly meat)
Fat 22.0%
Omega-3 Fatty acids .50%
Microorganisms (good bacteria) 90,000,000 CFU/LB
537 kcal/cup

Holy cow 42% protein!!! I've never heard of such a thing. I've also never heard of Innova or Artemis. Are they a local brand or can you only get it through certain locations/people?

www.naturapet.com/

They have a store locator button on the home page. Pet and feed stores across the country carry Innova.
