I have read all the diet and nutrition articles, but I am still undecided about pureed raw veggies vs cooking them or steaming them. It would seem there would be more nutrients in raw pureed, but I have always been told that dogs cannot digest raw veggies period.

Happy New Year Penny!
However, some dogs are so digestively challenged that lightly cooking/steaming works better for them.
It all depends on the individual.
Yes, there are!

I steamed *and* pureed for my dog and cats. Pureeing releases many nutrients, but it doesn't get down to the cellular level. Steaming probably does more to break down tough plant cell walls. If your dog is small enough for it to be practical, Earth's Best organic baby foods are a great option for getting veggies into them.

Yeah well, 4-oz jars wouldn't work to well then, lol!!
I don't feed (or eat, for that matter) fruit. Too much sugar, half of it fructose.
