monica, I have to go with you on this one. I've been researching alot on the raw diet for dogs and everything I've read confirms that dogs do have better immune systems then people do. My dogs have brought home many deer legs, etc. and never had a problem. Mind you, I don't really like dead animals in my yard, lol. I end up disposing of them and this only happens when Harley gets that selective hearing he tends to get on occasion and I have to go on a wild dog hunt. Bottem line, I think dogs can eat a lot more contaminated things then people can. I have also read in many parenting magazines, the warnings of salmonella being contracted from dog treats onto you little ones hands. I'm not saying anyone is wronge, I'm just sharing what I've learned.
