I don't have too much faith in a veterinarian's knowledge about feeding dogs. After all, they sell Hill's diet which in my opinion is right up there with the other 'bad' brands. A raw diet is a species appropriate diet, or have you ever seen a wolf eating kibble and grains ? Dogs are carnivores and even scavengers and have no problems whatsoever to digest even "spoiled" meat. The ph-balance of their stomach acid is such, that salmonella and e-coli does not affect them. It's a different ballgame if their immune system is weak, but if that's the case, pretty much every type of food can be a problem.
