An exiting new site online
for those raw feeders whom have had trouble keeping up with the pricing
of the holistic health food stores.
Veterinarian
List By State
Holistic, Homeopathic & Conventional Vets
that Support Raw Feeders
This list
was created to assist dog owners who wish to raise their dogs on a raw
diet with minimal vaccines and chemicals. This is NOT the list for
people who want a regular allopathic vet that pushes kibble and yearly
vaccinations.
We
can’t be held responsible or liable for your experiences, good or bad,
with any of the veterinarians on this list.
We are
providing this list as a service; please do your own research into any
health care provider you choose for your dogs.
If you
have a vet that meets our criteria that you would like to recommend to
others, please send contact information and any comments to us and we
will add them to our list.
