    Great podcast today with Dan Schuloff. Just like us humans, better food equals better health. Dan’s product sounds like the next best thing to a raw diet, which is what I feed my dog because I have a local butcher that makes a fully balanced grind for reasonable $. Fewer vet bills (actually almost none in my case) makes the higher price more palatable! FYI…Dogs Naturally magazine (website) is a good information source for raw diet and natural health.
    Keep up the great work on all the shows and products!
