[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 351655, member: 1963"] The raw diet I feed (Nature's Variety Lamb) costs two hundred dollars a month or thereabouts. It is horribly expensive. But before that, between the skin infections and intestinal problems, I was spending nearly that at the vet's per month and Gryphon looked and felt like crud. The diet is very easy. It comes in 6 packs of 12 patties (6 oz each). All you need to do is feed the appropriate amount of the food--basically throw the patties in the dish. You do have to sterilize feeding dishes and utensils, and properly wash your hands after handling the food. There's no difference between that and the precautions one should take when handling any raw meat. The raw meat got Gryphon off the steroid band wagon. I no longer had to buy digestive enzymes, and didn't need to have him on antibiotics much of the time. For us the cost has been worth it. If you have something like a Pet Supplies Plus nearby; it is very possible that they carry the food (or 'Companion' which is another good food) in smaller amounts. I don't have access to stores like that so have to mail order. I use [url]http://www.k9cuisine.com[/url]. They're not the cheapest out there, but they ship for free on orders over fifty dollars [/QUOTE]
