Thanks for the reply Janey, we currently give ours dry dog food but sometimes wet dog food with dry mixer, i'm sure he prefers wet dog food but just want to give him which is healthier etc

Personally for me if you want to feed some raw feed meaty bones to get the teeth cleaning benefit

Re: Pros and Cons of Raw meat??
I feed raw as well. It isn't for everyone, but Dempsey does well on it. If you're going to feed commercial, though, I'd recommend you buy the best you can afford (one that has meat as its main ingredient and doesn't have any flavouring/colouring added). I wouldn't feed tinned food myself, I don't think it's very good for their teeth, and it's about 80% water!

My three love it as well. They wouldn't have it any other way. In fact, Piggy wasn't feeling well and so was having boiled chicken and rice and she was miserable. She wanted her raw meat and bones. She was so sad to have cooked food.
