Biological Problems; When appropriate raw food meets the complex anatomy and physiology of dogs things usually go well. Lets take a look at some possible side effects and strategies for avoiding or dealing with them.

Vomiting; Dogs vomit more readily than humans. The loud heaving and smell may not be your likings but usually you need not be concerned when your pet vomits raw food, and then eats it again. Some dogs eat too quickly and then vomit. Solution is to offer food in one big piece requiring plenty of ripping and tearing. Some dogs r either allergic or sensitive to a particular meat. If your dog consistently vomits beef, make changes for instance try feeding rabbit, turkey. Some dogs vomit bile. In general this poses no risk for your dog but if your dog appear unwell call your vet.

Diarrhea; Defined as ' abnormally frequent intestinal evacuation with more or less fluid stools'. Sometimes diarrhea follows the introduction of and is associated with raw food. May be a dog enzyme systems need time to adjust or may be it's to do with the population of bowel bacteria that need time to change. Usually, diarrhea following introduction to raw food is short lived and resolve itself. You just need to keep check dog does not look or act unwell and clean up the mess.Some dogs, allergic to cooked meats in processed food, eat the same meat raw without ill effect.

Choking; Choking occurs when food or other material obstructs the airways. This is an emergency requiring promptremoval of the obstruction. Meaty bones cut too small can lodge across the airways, but so too can kibble, chew toys and plastic bones. Dogs don't need meat in bite size that can be swallowed whole; they need raw meaty bones in large pieces. Raw bones can and do stuck in the food tube between mouth and stomach. But reason is usually bones which are too small. Chicken necks, wings, Ox tail or other vertebrae cut too small and with sharp edges get stuck. Prevention is always better than treatment. Ensure bones are of suitable size and covered in lots of meat.
