Doesn raw meat contain harmful bacteria?
Yes, occasionally meat does contain bacteria that is harmful to HUMANS. Dogs, being a completely different species from us have naturally developed stomachs & digestive tracts that deal with those bacterium (yes, even modern canines!). Unlike us, healthy dogs do not get sick from the salmonella & ecoli that is occasionally present in raw meat. If your dog is not healthy, don’t feed him raw meat, instead lightly cook it instead. Always handle raw meat safely & wash bowls & utensils in hot soapy water. Do not let children handle raw meat.
