I can't speak for anyone else but for me I wouldn't feed any meat that was not fresh and smelled right...if it's off at all I don't feed it. It has to be something I would eat myself. With a processed kibble you still have all the same worries you mentioned PLUS many more...kibble can be made with by-products from a rendering plant...ya know dead road kill and diseased animals...not to mention the rat and other rodent droppings mixed into the food because of the deplorable conditions of the plants themselves. To me there is nothing filfthier than a dog food plant! Hugs In Him, Deanna

I was just naming the first ones that popped into my head. What about other diseases found in raw meat? All of them are rare?
