Step 2
The problem with dog food is that it is cooked and able to sit on a shelf for months without going bad. This makes feeding our dogs very convenient, but this can create health problems.

Step 4
Feeding a raw diet is a very natural diet. Dogs in the wild eat a completely raw diet and ate this way before dog food companies started selling processed grain-based foods.
