”I figured that if a coyote with a brain the size of a kumquat
can figure out how to feed himself without running extensive lab
tests, conducting longitudinal studies on other coyotes, or analyzing
the molecular structure of oats, it shouldn’t be difficult for
me to figure it out.” Quote by Carina Beth MacDonald
Practical and fun are the two words that come to mind for Carina
MacDonald’s “Raw Dog Food.” This book is written by an avid dog
lover for avid dog lovers. Carina knows all the concerns of those
starting their dogs on a raw food diet.
Carina has done her homework. She has poured over the information
in the well known raw food dog books, participated in raw dog
food forums and found her expert mentors. She has left no stone
unturned. She has done all that anyone can do to satisfy her voracious
appetite to know what is best for her faithful friends.
Much like Cliff Notes, Carina passes on the concise gems of her
research with humorous anecdotes which make “Raw Dog Food” a joy
to read. Her readers are quickly brought up to speed on the important
points to know before beginning a raw food diet. Plus she provides
the sources of information that she found useful in her own research
for those interested in further reading.
Her tales about finding raw food bargains for her 3 Rottweilers
and what she calls her Nottweiler are a lark. She tells about
trading raw food with friends, visiting Oriental markets for chicken
feet, finding bargains at the grocery store, getting cast offs
from markets, gathering herbs from the forest, plucking animal
guts from rendering plants and even diving into dumpsters for
freebies to feed her beloved dogs. How can boring kibble provide
these adventures? This woman would find a way to feed her
dogs in the midst of a nuclear disaster and have a good time doing
it.
Carina reminds us of what is great about being a dog owner. Dogs
cause us to connect with people and the world. Her raw food experience
has opened new horizons, forged new friendships and provided her
with wonderful stories to share. There appears to never be a dull
moment in her household. Her pets must adore her because she obviously
adores her pets. "Raw Dog Food: Make It Easy for You
and Your Dog" received the 2003 Dog Writers Association of America
Award for Best Book under 100 pages. For your friends and
family who are interested in learning about raw dog food diets
but aren’t willing to invest the time pouring through information
to become experts . . . this is the book to buy. Carina’s game
plan for a raw dog diet definitely “Makes It Easy For You"
to be knowledgeable with little effort. “Raw Dog Food” is a quick
read, highly informative and will make you laugh.
