I feed raw and kibble, no problems. I don't usually feed them in the same meal, but my grandpa fed all his racing hounds a mix of ground raw and kibble in the same meal, and they were in phenomenal health, with the exception of bad teeth from a lack of raw meaty bones. That being said, when you do switch to full raw, make sure you do it right. Supplementing kibble with plain ol' ground beef has proven to be good for health in my experience, but that's what it is... a supplement. Nutritional deficiency in the ground beef is made up for by the kibble. When you go whole hog (which I highly recommend as the healthiest thing), it has to be well-balanced, especially for a pup. 80:10:10 meat:bone

rgan ratio.
