Ok, first, please don’t remove my question. Some report happy people seem to love getting my questions removed.
Ok, a couple people I see said their dogs cannot gain weight on RAW, and they did everything by the books.
Do some dogs not do well on RAW?

raw is the more natural diet for dogs. especially if you are sticking with prey model (not omnivorous barf diets). when you say people told you their dog can’t gain weight on raw, what exactly do you mean? do you mean they aren’t getting fat? http://rawfed.com/myths/switch.html
Raw food is often no more fatty than what or I would choose to eat. If the meal is properly balanced, dogs can have increased energy levels which may help them burn off more calories. There are so many different ways that people are feeding raw diets. It depends on the diet and the dog. You do need to make sure, however, that the meal is at least 80% meat.
every dog is different. not just with RAW but any food. Its best just to see what works for your dogs
