Unfortunately I doubt any vet college would ever do a study on raw as almost all of them are funded by pet food companies. The only study I have ever seen on raw is one that proved that dogs fed raw shed more bacteria in their feces than those fed kibble.

I would love to see a study done on raw feeding, it would be nice to have some scientific evidence to back up belief with.

The bottom line is people will do what works for them. My pets are all looking better than they ever have, but time will tell I guess. There are some kibble diets out there that dogs do well on. And provided you brush their teeth they'll probably live a long time. To each his own.
