One of the most noticeable changes that I usually hear about with changing a dog to a prey model raw diet is the change in stool. I like to tell people that the "proof is in the poop!" Once a dog has become accustomed to a prey model raw diet, the stool becomes much smaller in size, as the dog is now absorbing and their body is utilizing most of the nutrients of what they are eating. It also has hardly any smell compared to a kibble fed dog's stool and it certainly isn't the soft serve consistency that you'd get stuck on the bottom of your shoe if you step in it!
I made the video below to show exactly that! What prompted me was that I was at a dog event the weekend prior and stepped in a pile of poop that someone didn't clean up. As I felt my foot sink into it, I knew right away, it was NOT from a raw fed dog! Yuck! As my husband came walking up to me I said, "oh man, I stepped in poop, and the poop of a KIBBLE FED dog!" My husband completely understood what I was talking about, other people in the area... not so much! Ha! Maybe the aggravation of cleaning a bunch of mucky poop off of and out of all the tiny crevices of my shoe wasn't totally pointless (you never do realize how detailed your shoe is until THIS happens!) as it sparked the idea to film myself stepping in a prey model raw fed dog's stool!
As I say in the video, if you've ever been in a forest or any preserved natural land, have you ever seen stool from any of the creatures who call that area their home? No! There's a reason we don't have pooper scooper programs cleaning up these areas, and that's because the stool of these inhabitants is crumbling and being absorbed back into the earth, just as nature intended.
Hope you enjoy the video!
