The Straight Poop about DOG NUTRITION
I think those of you who have followed the "debate" in The Straight Poop over the last several months about commercially prepared dog food vs. the homecooked variety will agree that just as a balanced diet is important for your dog, a balanced article on the subject is most welcome. Here's one, at mypetstop.com, from Lennie's World of Dogs. Comprehensive and sensible.
