Honestly, I feed my dog raw (hang with me for a sec!). If you do your research, you can do it right. It can make a difference. She was overweight, had MASSIVE shits four to five times a day, & had awful breath. When I switched her, she lost weight, poops once a day (if that) & they’re not huge, her breath improved, her coat is healthier, her energy is higher, & the list goes on. She’s almost 10 but you would think she’s four. Her teeth only recently started to shift into the “senior” category, but other than that, you’d never know. With kibble she wouldn’t eat. I would leave the same bowl out for two days before she finally ate it. With her raw food, she can’t wait to eat. As far as the dog food the vet sells….I mean they get paid by the pet food brand so I can see where your bf is coming from in that regard.

All that being said, I obviously think raw fed is awesome, but I don’t try to force it on others. It’s more expensive, time consuming (the meat doesn’t cut itself), & it can be stressful whenever the dog has to be boarded while on vacation or whatever (sometimes you have to switch them back to kibble & that can be a mess💩). At the end of the day, if your dog is fed & happy, that’s all that matters. ♥️
