So RFD... Have you ever owned a toy breed dog?
I have worked with a lot and I mean A LOT of toy breed owners helping them switch their dogs to raw. I know what a toy breed is capable of doing when they are allowed to do it.
My toy breeds will gulp, and won't chew bones. They'll massacre the meat off the bone and then walk away. Ground is better for them.
My giang breeds will gulp. They will swallow chicken drumsticks and occasionally a small back without taking one chomp. It's not a big deal. If it fits down the throat, its small enough. If it doesn't, they bring it back up and chomp it a few times.
Not every dog is going to be the same. Therefore feeding styles MUST be adjusted to the individual dog.
I keep hearing that from people who are afraid to let their dogs act naturally the way a dog should. Give them the dang food and let them figure out how to eat it. It may take a little time in the beginning but they soon get the hang of it and eat pretty quickly. At first, my dogs could take 30 minutes to eat a chicken quarter. Now it's less than 30 seconds.
A successful informative person is not pushy, they do not dwell on what they insist must be right.
A successful informative is a person who give accurate regardless of whether its the answer the questioner is looking for or not. A successful imformative person gives the straight scoop without sugar coating the information to save people's fragile feelings. I often have people tell he how much they like my no nonsense answers and thank me for setting them straight without beating around the bush.
They tailor their informative approach to the individual taking in the individual's circumstances and concerns and addressing them in an appropriate polite manner.
I'm always polite. I just give the facts. The questioner can accept my information or reject it but they get the correct answer.
Not telling them they're scared and acting like a mommy and pretty much insinuating they're horrible dog owners.
So you want sugar coating? I never said anything about horrible dog owner.
