I'm actually one of the owners of Clipper's Canine Cafe. I SWEAR by raw. It saved my older dog's life 8 and a half years ago. Clipper (my 3 year old Lab) is from a raw foods breeder and he's the healthiest dog I've ever owned. My dogs have no fleas, great coats, no allergies and amazing teeth. I think all dogs can do great on the raw regardless of size. If your having any trouble switching your dog over to the food please give me a call or stop by the store. We have a great booklet about raw and it answers most of the questions people have. I've also had almost 9 years experience feeding it so I've got lots of tricks for helping dogs with the initial switch. Sometimes switching to a different raw food helps too. If you decide that the raw isn't what you want to feed we have lots of other hormone, antibiotic and preservative free kibbles (although I think raw is better than any kibble on the market!!).
