For dogs you need to give them a bit of veggie with the raw meat too, not just as treats. They're not obligate carnavours so they need a bit of ruffage with the meat. You can't just give them any old meat either they need different parts of the carcass, especially organ meat (usually about 10%). Usually Raw feeders encourage giving dogs raw, uncooked bones as well. There's a plethora of raw dog feeding sites on the web that can give you a good idea of what is the best way to go about it. Counting on a few treat veggies though to give your dog all the vits he needs is not the way to go. Serving sizes also depend on breed, size and activity level of your dog. Usually about 2-3% of his/her body weight a day broken up over 2 - 3 servings (so like my sister's 75 lb rottie eats about 2 lbs of meat a day).
My sister gets a meat mix for dogs Hobcott's in Pitt Meadows. Most butcher shops sell it as well as. These need to be fed with veggies and fruit.
Tisol and various other pet stores sell the meat and veggies together. (Prairie Pet Foods in Poco carries it and I believe Bosley's which is all over the place does as well).
