5.0 out of 5 stars An educated and logical way to feed pets!, Dec 9 2003
By "stormgategsd" (Atlanta , Georgia) - See all my reviews
I had the wonderful opportunity to meet Dr. Tom Lonsdale while he was teaching his "Raw Meaty Bones" seminar at Emory University. Tom gives excellent information that gives you very logical and scientific reasons to feed a natural diet, much like the dog's wild ancestors ate.

This book will open your eyes! It will teach you to feed your animals in a way that may have never occurred to you before. You'll be surprised how efficiently your animals will consume their meals, and how completely your animal can digest bones.

The most noticeable improvement you will notice when feeding this diet, is that "doggie breath" eventually disappears. Feeding fresh raw carcasses has an extremely beneficial effect on oral hygiene in pets.

There are many, many internet support groups for feeding your pet a "raw meaty bone" diet. You can buy this diet in any grocery store, or you may prefer to buy in bulk through a buying co-op or at a wholesale meat supplier. This is a very cost-efficient way of feeding, because your animal will consume a lot less food overall. Try to avoid the pre-packaged raw diets if you can. Although they have many benefits, they do not provide proper oral stimulation, and will not clean your pet's teeth. They also do not support local growers and businesses, which is so important in the current sluggish economy.

Tom Lonsdale is a long-practicing veterinarian, who has dedicated his life to promoting a natural way of feeding pets. I thought that Dr. Lonsdale was a very sincere, compassionate man, whose goal in teaching his diet principals, was to truly promote the best interests of our companion animals.

I will hope you will read this book, and apply the knowledge gained from it to your own animals health and well-being. I highly recommend his book!

4.0 out of 5 stars A ripping yarn, Jan 29 2004
By A Customer
It is interesting that the pendulum in human nutrition appears to be swinging away from manufactured foods towards much less processing. This little book makes a good case for the same in our pets.

It is a whistleblower's report on the ties that bind veterinary education and professional control these days to the marketers of pet food.
It is also a single veterinarian's attempt to present a clear argument *for* feeding the pet dog and the pet cat on a healthier diet than that offered by manufacturers of "pet food".

Recommended for its insight into the mucky politics of professional associations no less than for its good assembling of the arguments for feeding our pets more like ma nature intended.

1.0 out of 5 stars No "How-To" Information, Dec 17 2002
By A Customer
I was very disappointed in this book. I read the reviews here and thought it would tell me how to change my dog's diet to RAW. It told me everything but that. Tom Lonsdale devoted exactly 1 page to the most important information! He simply told his story about his war with the dogfood industry and vets who support it.
