I think that's the most important bit of information all dog and cat owners must learn. Studying the anatomy of one's pet is a great beginning before reading up on raw feeding, if only to better inform oneself. The nutritional needs of different animals are indeed not the same as those of humans.

ETA: Merlin'sHope, can you share the name or clinic of your vet with us?
