Why?

Raw feeding is not a new fad diet! It is an attempt to return to the type of food a dog would naturally eat. Obviously a dog can not be allowed to kill its own prey as his wild cousins do, so we have to give him the constituents to make up the varied meals that hunting and scavenging would provide.
During Great Grandma’s time “dog food” came into being, It was a processed mixture made up largely from the waste products of the bakery trade. Thankfully commercial foods have improved greatly since then but they are still very different from the raw food that dogs evolved to eat. Evolutionary change occurred over thousands of years. Great Grandma lived only a hundred years ago. Yet, commercial dog food has become the norm and is what most dogs are fed on today.
