The one thing that boggles the mind somewhat (on that website) is all the effort they go through to skin, gut and chop up the rabbits that they feed to the dogs. Why mess around with fresh prey? Not only are they creating so much unnecessary work for themselves, but they're removing very nutritious parts of fresh rabbit (skin, blood, stomach, guts) that many raw feeders would be thrilled to get their hands on!
I know, I thought of you when I read that section! You should e-mail her and tell her your experiences with it and ask her why she removes those parts. Based on your experiences, it seems like she's going through a whole lot of work for nothing.
I read through the whole site and I am very happy to have found such an easy site for reference. I was hoping to start w/a very simple diet and this site recommends just that! Great website!

I'm glad other's have found it as helpful as I have. I sent her an e-mail inviting her to check out the Leerburg site as well. Even people who really know what they're doing find some valuable info here.

Lauri does visit the Leerburg site from time to time, but she is a moderator on another forum - super nice lady. I'm sure she'll appreciate all the emails.

From what others have said about feeding "freshly killed" animals,
such as rabbits - the concern was that the dogs might ingest
parasites/worms from those prey animals. Is that not too much of
a concern? Or is the chance minimal enough as to not worry about
it?
I'd LOVE to raise rabbits to feed to my dogs, but the - as you
put it, the "unnecessary work" of cleaning out the bunnies is a
major reason why I balk at the idea.
Yuko, I think you have an excellent idea as usual...very informative ,I wish I had the time to do that and hand them out in from of petsmart..I bet you as of today some people have NO idea that their is an alternative to Kibbles..my neighbor came over yesterday to ask me if I had heard of all the news about the recall and what was I going to do?? when I told her how I feed , her mouth dropped and she said "I never thought you could do that?" Just think how many people are like her.This web site and many more should make out pamphlets to hand out..
