Can dogs Can't eat raw meat? In fact, this issue has a lot of controversy in the pet circle. Some friends firmly believe that raw meat is suitable for dogs to eat. The reason is simple: Before humans were tamed, dogs have been eating raw meat for thousands of years, so why can't they eat raw meat?

These friends are right. However, there are certain risks associated with dogs eating raw meat. The reasons are as follows:

1. The meat quality is not good enough. The meat quality of all kinds of raw meat in China is very difficult to pass: all kinds of water-injected meat, hormones, additives... This kind of meat quality is really different from the fresh animal meat in nature.

2. The dog's constitution becomes weak. The pet dog dog, which has been domesticated for many years, has long been accustomed to the human diet. Compared with the strong wild ancestors, the stomach and intestines are 108,000 miles away. It is estimated that they will no longer be there. Good for digesting raw meat. Just like us, if you occasionally eat raw or cold food, such as sashimi or raw beef, you will have two days of diarrhea, not to mention dogs.

3. The most important reason: parasites. Raw meat may contain parasites or parasitic eggs. If the parasites or their eggs are not heated and cooked, they will live forever, and then be eaten by our baby dogs, and then grow up in the dog's body, terrible, right?

Special If your dog is used to eating raw meat, the chance of contracting these parasites will be greatly increased. As we often say, Toxoplasma gondii, which can cause fetal malformations, is hidden in the raw meat of pigs, cattle and sheep. There are also many parasites such as tapeworms, roundworms, hydatid, trichinella, etc., which are parasitic in muscles or internal organs, so not only raw meat cannot be eaten, but raw internal organs cannot be eaten by dogs.

To sum up, in order to reduce trouble, it is best not to feed your dog raw meat! (Of course, if you are more at ease with the raw meat you buy, and your dog has a better stomach, occasionally give it to your dog Some raw meat to improve, of course.)
