I wanted to provide a simple book to help people make the change to a raw diet and also provide breeders who raise their litters on fresh foods with an easy guide for their puppy buyers to take home and follow. There is nothing complicated about feeding your new puppy or adult dog a raw diet. There are many wonderful books available that teach about raw diets - some are very detailed and are great resources for those of us who are interested in all of the scientific nutritional information, but not all provide the diet information itself in a brief, easy to follow format. I hope this book will help to fill that gap.

In the time I have been feeding a fresh food diet, I have helped many people get started via the internet, mail and phone. I have always recommended several books and made myself available for questions. Even after reading the books, many people would come back to me asking how do I start, how much do I feed, are you sure the raw bones and the bacteria in the raw food will not hurt my dog, how do I find time to prepare all of this food? The great part about feeding a simple raw diet is that it takes very little time to prepare and feed, yet provides your dog with a diet from puppyhood to old age that truly promotes good health.

The design of the book is to encourage you to enhance your knowledge of canine nutrition.

I hope you will keep the book accessible and use it often as you journey into raw feeding.
