Let's face it, there are tons of dog products out there. From toys that claim to be "indestructible" to miracle foods -- we've seen plenty! Sorting through these items and finding out which is best for your dog is a pretty expensive undertaking. With that in mind, we realize it can be nice to have a place to go and get some firsthand advice.
We discovered this for ourselves when our young border collie had trouble with just about every food on the market. We finally resolved the issue when a friend suggested a raw diet. That's what this section is all about. Nothing terribly scientific -- just good old fashioned advice from folks just like you.
