Here’s the real “poop” on a raw food doggie diet—much fewer and much smaller poops! Dr. T’s nutrition and diet advice has transformed my 10 1/2 yr. old fat Lab mix into a playful “puppy” with the added bonus of very little poop in the yard! The raw food diet works!

I will have to agree & go with Stella & Chewys. I get the freeze dried lamb for my dog now & then. (I do home cook even though my vet believes that commercial pf is better…….oh yuk.) I break up the patties & sprinkle on her food. Do I need to tell you what she gobbles down first? She LOVES S&C lamb patties.

Thanks for all your wonderful newsletters & great information.

Dr. Terifaj is beyond belief with skill, integrity, compassion and determination to provide the highest quality of medical care for her clients. This message is the living proof that no matter how long any of us primates live, not a day goes by that you have the opportunity to learn something new. I have always been concerned about health issues revolving around a raw diet until I saw this and the process used to kill dangerous bacteria without using heat. Being the skeptic that I am, admittedly I have no further arguments about health safety of raw diet assuming you use Dr. Paula’s suggested safely prepared diet. I surrender now thanks to the education you have been providing me with. But finally, you have taken my health issues away. Does this mean on Shy’s monthly birthday (13th) when we share a rib eye steak celebrating his survival on a month to month basis since birth that I have to eat mine really rare? Thanks for the care you have given to both Shy and Margeaux, and for the advice you gave that saved Shy’s eyesight at three years old. I can’t thank you enough for your candidness. I know how difficult it is to deviate from the “accepted program”. Those with a real heart will do that for the benefit of their patients or constituents while the “sheep” of their field follow the course of the stream for profit, or to avoid criticism from their peers at the expense of their patients. Thanks, Mark.

Thanks for the–as usual–great article, Dr. T. I’ve put it on my myspace page. I wish I still lived near enough to take my 2 rescue schnauzers to you, although I did use your recipe for making real food for my kids, and the little boy’s very bad itchy skin condition improved to the point of disappearing in a few weeks. Keep up the good work…we all need you!!!

I’ll guess a variety of the flavors of Stella & Chewy’s Raw Frozen Steaks (chicken, beef, lamb etc.) on a rotating basis for variety. Poppy loves them too. Thanks Dr. T for thinking outside of the box and helping us to do so too!

Here is something vet’s say that you might find “interesting.” My brother’s vet tells him his “pit bulls” need a special diet (mostly protein) just because of their breed. I never heard of a breed needing a special diet. Worst part I believe my brother is getting Purina or something of the sort because that is what the vet recommended. yuck!

I am eternally grateful, and so is Rowdy for his new svelt body. At 13.8#, this yorkie was busting at the seams! Huge praises to Dr. T for teaching us about home cooking. Rowdy is now a healthy, happy 9 pounder and has never looked better. At 12 years old, I know his life has been greatly increased. My old vet just blew off his weight for years when I would ask for something I could do. I can’t sing your praises enough. Thanks so much for these articles. I learn a lot and get a glimpse at the real you, a wonderful, caring angel.

Stella & Chewy’s Raw Frozen Chicken Steaks? June Bug loves them – and I don’t have to add anything to improve the flavor for her! She likes a Freeze-Dried Lamb Steak after dinner but not quite as much as two Health Mutt Cookies for dessert. Thanks, Dr. T, for all you continue to do to keep our fur kids healthy!!
