Nutritionally speaking....

This article has me thinking.....

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1315145/Is-pet-food-poisoning-dogs.html

I know that in my house we just don't like stuff that comes out of bags, cans, or boxes. Momma has serious trust issues and given the fact that we post so many recalls on dog food and dog products, I can't really blame her.

Now, we do occasionally get raw lamb bones. She makes a big fuss about what kind, where it came from etc etc. And the first few times she was not exactly comfortable with the raw issue. Yes, of course we loved them, but the bones tend to disappear as soon as we get down to actual bone chewing. Evaporation? I don't know? They just vanish.

I am planning on leaving this article out for momma to "find". I think I need for her to internalize it... Grow more comfortable and...maybe we can get those yummy bones more regularly...

Do you get raw bones? Funny thing is, she gives us raw carrots, raw apple... Raw cukes, so what's the difference besides the yummy factor?

Now, assuming we can get momma into raw bone snacking for us, do any of you know how to keep them from "vanishing"? Any and all advice is welcome.

Salivating in anticipation
