What reviewers are saying...
“Her easygoing writing style makes this an enjoyable and educational tale. A self proclaimed fanatic when it comes to her dogs’ health, she dove into the raw food debate and did her own research, which led to her conversion to this eating program. For anyone considering this dietary approach, MacDonald provides a good starting point.” Terry Peters, reviewer, North Shore News, Vancouver B.C.

"Food can be fun and if you like to laugh in the kitchen, you'll enjoy the raw humor in this book." Kymythy R. Schultze, CCN, AHI author of Ultimate Diet: Natural Nutrition For Dogs and Cats

"First impressions of the presentation and style are entirely favourable. I think Carina has advanced the cause of raw feeding and dog owners will like the book." Tom Lonsdale DVM, author of Raw Meaty Bones

"Just finished reading Carina's book and am impressed. I have been feeding raw for over five years and can identify with the struggle people go through when first starting to feed raw. Carina's book is excellent for someone changing to raw. It gives good advice, menus to follow, innovative ideas and a sense of confidence that will certainly be helpful to the first time raw feeder. Wish it had been available when I started feeding raw." Carol Burke, Breeder, Darrlburg Rottweilers

"Carina (MacDonald) has taken the mystery and confusion out of raw feeding with her book Raw Dog Food. Make It Easy For You and Your Dog. This is a great reference for anybody new to feeding raw, and it's especially helpful for anyone who is intimidated by the whole idea. Carina's direct, refreshing style makes for easy reading, and her straight-forward advice and menu ideas will make feeding raw a piece of cake!" Linda Walker, Breeder, Sunapee Akitas

DOG WORLD
“Over the past decade or so, some dog owners have adopted the practice of feeding their dogs’ raw food… MacDonald is not a veterinarian or expert in canine nutrition. She’s an informed dog owner who wrote the book that she wishes had been available when she started out feeding raw… The strength of this book is it’s friendly, “been there, done that” approach… This book provides a reassuring, practical, and attainable approach to feeding raw. MacDonald writes with an earthy tone, using humor and empathy to convey her message that feeding raw can benefit your dog and doesn’t have to be complicated or scary.” Janine Adams

One item is Missing, June 8, 2008
Reviewer: FL Meat Grinder
I thought the book was easy to read and very enjoyable. As i have been preparing raw meat diets for my dogs for nearly 20 yrs now, just one point of advice in addition, that of safety of frozen raw meats (for dogs, and humans too for that matter) in the home freezer. Due to all the power cuts with brownouts and storms in FL and other states, I installed an inexpensive little life saver of a device called a defrost detector which will alert me if my food defrosted and spoiled and then refroze while I was away from home with my dogs on vacation (we do a lot of RV'ing). I bought it on www.defrostdetector.com , I just wanted to add this one missed item of concern. Again, a really nice book, enjoyed it a lot. Thanks.
 
Easy-Peasey!, July 11, 2007
Reviewer: Amy Rogers
I bought this book when my Collie/Malamute mix was diagnosed with food sensitivities and I first discovered the Dogwise website and forums. Carina makes feeding raw simple. She demystifies the practice and conveys the information in terms anyone can understand. Combine that with humorous tales and you'll find it's a delight to read on it's own!
 
Makes it Easy for Raw Feeding Beginners, July 22, 2006
Reviewer: working_dogz
I'd considered feeding a raw diet for a long time, but had always been intimidated by being able to balance the nutrition, plus all the food preparation. This book makes it easy to understand, plus is quite entertaining to read. I've been feeding a raw diet for several months now, and the results are fantastic! Thanks Carina for a great book!
