That is a total myth. Your dog does not associate his meals with attacking things. Just as they don’t chase chickens if they eat clean raw chicken. If that were true almost every dog in America would be raiding corn fields.. They just don’t make the association. Here is a fantastic list of raw feeding myths.http://www.rawfed.com/myths
I agree “raw meat will make my dog bloodthirsty.” is a myth. But you asked if the raw meat makes him aggressive. Aggressive is not the same thing as vicious and bloodthirsty. Viciousness is bad but being aggressive is not even a bad thing in men. It just means you’re not complacent. From my experience, the raw meat will make the german shepherd appear more aggressive just because he now has high energy and he’s feeling good, so he might want to go faster and/or run up to other dogs to start a play session. That’s confidence, not viciousness. If he didn’t want to hurt other dogs, the meat won’t change that. However, if you feed him raw meat, you’d better be prepared to give him plenty of exercise. Otherwise he’ll have all this energy and no place to go and that’s no way to treat a dog.
Feeding a well balanced raw diet isn’t detrimental to any canine. ‘Agression’ is either inherently a problem or brought out by improper socialization or training or a combination and not as a result of what a dog eats. If you want to feed a raw diet please read up on them and make sure you are doing it properly.
wait! raw meat is good for dogs ONCE IN A WHILE! maybe twice a month but no more than that! it will not make your dog aggresive unless you ressle with your pup with meat wich isn’t a good idea then your dog can attack anything that looks like meat! even you!
Absolutely not. I have been raw feeding my dogs for over 2 years now and love it. Check out this website for common myths:http://rawfed.com/myths/
and especially look at the link that says “Feeding raw meat makes a dog bloodthirsty”
I have an almost 2 yr old German Shepherd who has been on a raw diet since I got him at 8 weeks. The only time he “acts aggressive” Is that when we are on walks he likes to bark at people and dogs sometimes. As he is a large predominantly black GSD alot of people think hes “being mean” but really he just wants to say hi.. hes a big dorky baby. So no… feeding raw won’t make any dog aggressive

That was a good one about the cornfields.How many people know that is the main ingredient in many dog foods.It pays to read the labels

Raw meat does not make a dog aggressive.
Absolutley untrue.
The raw food diet is scientifically researched and proven to help extensively in digestion among canines.
