Raw diet alternative..and flea treatment
Submitted by MINDY on October 17, 2010 - 8:04pmIs only nature freeze dried dog food comparable to the raw diet?
Second question is anyone currently using comfortis for flea control? Looking for something other than spot on treatments they
Do not seem to be doing that good of a job.

I am using it:-)
And have liked the results this summer with Comfortis. I do flea treatment every three weeks though as I have two dogs with severe flea allergies:-)
I know NOTHING about raw! Best wishes on that, there are a whole slew of folks here that can help you with that part but not me!

Hi Mindy, I really don't know
anything about Nature Freeze. I am feeding Kofi raw.
I have been giving Kofi Comfortis for quite some time, and really like it. When she was getting Sentinel she got some of those bad guys, so we switched to Comfortis.
Did you do a search on Nature Freeze? Maybe others have tried it.
well what i got
Was that it is freeze Dried meat veggies and fruit...with added
Minerals just add water let set and tada raw food.
However reading on this board raw feeders five meat bones and extra
Stuff do I give the extras or is the food complete?
I need to do more research but wanted to know if anyone fed this
And what were results, I hate to spend sixty dollars for food she
Can't tolerate buuut I will. 8)
If she can't eat it the mini weenie will...

Sorry that I'm not familiar with
the freeze dried.
Trial and error is sometimes the only option.
It was quiet awhile before I felt like I could feed Kofi raw, but then I just went for it.
I don't know what you mean by five meat bones, but Kofi gets chicken backs and miscut chicken breasts, and beef ribs until the bones are clean,etc.
Just research, and there are many here to provide great advice.
Healthy bully to you!
I don't think it is quite accurate
for the company to claim it is exactly like feeding raw. That does NOT MEAN it's bad or not as good, just not exactly the same. I think it would be easier to feed raw, no mixing and you know exactly what you are feeding your dog. Raw feeding is as easy or as complicated as you choose for it to be. I choose easy, but that's my choice.

Are you talking about Natures Variety
Freeze Dried? Why not just feed the raw patties? Is there some reason why you want to feed the freeze dried?
Revolution
is what I use if I need to use something.
thier are many good pre made raw
try to find the one with the least addivitives if your not comfortable doing it your self...you will find as you do more raw you"ll see less fleas i use garlic for tick and flea control it takes two months to work really well...i dont use heartworm or flea preventive on my dogs...their all raw fed....do you have a direct question? comfortis is a new flea control and i no a few using it...but its another chemical your putting in your dog....but again i am a raw feeder and dont believe in these chemicals.....
