How can u discuss or show a part if raw feeding when u cut out the vital part...a lot of people think it's raw bones that are the problem with raw feeding but it isn't! They are soft and easily chewed broken and compacted before swallowing down a dogs wider gullet, all natural and designed to eat raw! Come on channel 5 get a backbone ad show it!

I have been feeding RMB for over 10 yrs, owned, Irish Setters for over 30 yrs... Had all sorts of problems when feeding commercial food, its crap... My dogs and I have 4, are a testament to Raw Natural feeding and invite anyone to see them.

it is utterly ridiculous to be opening up a discourse on the biological appropriateness of raw feeding your dog, the way nature intended & then not show a dog eating it a chicken wing. Ridiculous, we see animal documentaries on tv all the time with animals catching, killing & eating their prey, why so squeamish about this?!

There's nothing happier than a dog with a bone.

I am a dog trainer and I focus on nutrition with my clients. Raw feeding is a big part of wellness. I feed my dogs raw, it has helped improve their health, one of our dogs came with Serious IBD issues, one with severe behavioral issues and the other was a poorly breed puppy mill dog who was morbidly obese and had already had a myriad of health conditions. There is nothing wrong but everything right about feeding a biologically appropriate raw diet to our canine and feline friends. I don't understand why you would remove something as important as that from a piece that focuses on the "truth about pet food". If you truly want to focus on the truth about pet food you will include the whole "raw" truth!

It would be wrong to not share the amazing benefits of a RMB diet! Show it!

It would be great if you could show the whole clip of a dog eating a raw bone as people need to see it in action as they are scared to do it due to bad press from vets. TV shows are happy to show wild life documentaries of all creatures ripping apart their prey. Just what dogs were breed to do.

I'm surprised at channel 5 not showing the dog eating a raw chicken wing. It's the most natural thing for a dog to do!

If you don't leave in the raw feeding clip you can't call it 'the truth'!!

We have been feeding our 13 Siberian Huskies and 1 Alaskan Malamute RAW Chicken Carcasses every morning for a year now and never had a problem with them, it's cooked Chicken Bones that are dangerous for dogs...

If you are going to show a TV programme about the 'Truth' behind dog food if it is going to be the truth and not a biased report giving people false information that commercial pet food is safe for dogs to eat when its not, it isnt species appropriate, dogs dont need grain or any of the other awful ingredients in their diet that these pet foods put in there, dogs are sick because of what they are being fed. Dogs that are fed on a raw diet are eating food they are meant to they are carnivores you only need to look at their teeth to see that? Chicken wings are perfectly safe and an important part of their diet so why cut it out?? if you are going to show a truthful report it needs to remain in this programme so people can see how easy their dogs can cope with eating bones and how natural it is to them I dont want to be disapointed by this programme before its even aired.

It can hardly be called 'The truth about Pet food' if you give a one sided view of it!!

If you are going to do a documentary do it properly
