It is entirely acceptable to feed your dog a pure kibble diet. Or you can mix their diet up with some cooked or raw meat, fish, vegetables and rice. Many owners like to feed a raw meat diet to their dogs, and while this can suit some dogs very well, there are some important considerations you need to be aware of.


Is it OK to feed my dog only meat?

With just meat, your dog could be missing out on lots of vitamins and supplemental nutrients. If your dog's diet isn't right for him, look out for bowel issues.

Get some meaty bones from the butcher and give your dog one every day or two.
