PICO question In adult dogs, does feeding a raw food diet alter urine composition compared to a kibble diet? Clinical bottom line The evidence provided by the single study identified is weak and the outcomes can neither support nor challenge the hypothesis that a raw food diet increases the risk of urinary calculi compared to a kibble diet.
