I had a cat with IBD that improved significantly on raw. I didnt have any real serious issues with the dogs that I started on raw, but they did have the "normal" occassional hot spot, ear gunk, etc. None of those now. I did have a dog who packed on lbs easily on kibble, but could eat a normal amount of raw so I didnt feel like I was starving her anymore.
The biggest difference is their overall health. Things you didnt realize were bad improve. My dogs all (and I have seven, plus whatever litter or rescue is here) have great coats, clean teeth, no odor. You may not think your dogs/cats are bad now, but what made me realize it was that after a while on raw, everyone else's dogs seem yucky! I cannot stand a kibble breath kiss now! ICK!
Plus, my pets have had no fleas since being on raw. We just moved to the country where I was warned the fleas were awful. Nada. I use NO flea control either.
I went back to kibble briefly maybe six yrs ago. I swear, in less than a month, it was like my dogs got a film over them. Their coats dulled, their teeth gunked. Yuk. Never again.
