No, Raw meat is bad for every living thing, especially puppies. If you give your puppie/dog raw meat it will probably die. Please do not let this happen.

Another answer

Raw meat is not bad for every living thing, and your dog will not die if you feed it raw meat, as long as the meat has not gone bad. It is probably not wise to feed your puppy nothing but raw meat. It requires a balanced diet if you want it to grow up strong and healthy.

But, many animals exist on raw meat diets, wild cats for instance. They are the ultimate carnivores and live almost strictly on meat. Wild dogs eat raw meat etc.

Yes it is safe. Raw meat is easier to digest than cooked meat, as they are perfectly adapted to eat raw meat, organs and even bone and to digest it all quickly and efficiently. Fresh, raw meat, organ and bone provides them with all the nutrition they need. Cooked meat, in comparison, has little to no nutrients in it as all the nutrients are easily destroyed when the meat is cooked or even heated for a short period of time.

Feeding a cat or dog a diet of raw meat, organs and bones is said to be incredibly beneficial to the the animal, and with limited risk. However, creating a nutritionally complete diet takes a lot of research in order to get the balance right.

Of course, if you wish to feed raw to your cat or dog, Organic or Free Range meat is the safest choice as the meat would have come from hormone-free animals kept in sanitary conditions. Freezing the meat for several weeks will help kill off parasites.

Always practice safe food handling techniques when handling ANY raw meat - whether it is for you or your pet. It might be advisable to take extra care with very young, very old or dogs with compromised immune systems.

There are two camps in the world of dog feeding, those who think raw meat is good for dogs, and those who don't. What is natural isn't necessarily safe or better.

Most veterinarians don't like feeding raw meat because of the bacteria that is present, such as E. coli and Salmonella.
