I don't find this to be true at all. I have limited freezer/fridge space in my RV and travel with up to 8 dogs. On the road, they all get a 50/50 diet. I feed Oma's Pride which comes in tubes. It is well balanced with meat, bone and veggies and I can get quite a lot in the space I have. Still not enough to feen 8 dogs 100% raw for more than a couple days. Only have one girl who turns her nose up at the kibble. By the second day, she'll eat it. I use kibble as training treats so they probably just think they are getting treats. Just what works for me :-) Laura Thomas http://www.treasureranchgsds.com/ ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2005.
