No your dog cannot become "mean" from eating raw meat. Dogs don't know what blood tastes like and they won't crave for it if they do taste it. Your dog can, however, become very sick if the meat has any parasites (such as in raw pork) or bacteria (in raw chicken) and can develop blockages if bones are also fed.

NO! lack of training and discipline makes an animal mean. What they eat doesn't. A PROPERLY TRAINED dog you can give a raw piece to and take it away. My dogs have eaten raw meat for years and not once ever bitten me or been vicious. Too many people giving "advice" haven't done it - they read things and figure it's on a website or book so true. It's not.
Dogs naturally consume meat. Too many "experts" believe this and it's not true.

Absolutley not! That just makes me laugh! Meat every once in a while as a small treat is ok, but don't make it raw and certainly not all the time. Feed him dog food!

No feeding raw is one of the best things you can do for your dog. And raw chicken bones won't cause harm to your dog. It's the cooked ones that become brittle and can harm them. Pork is bad for them but other than that any kind of raw meat is good for your dog. And it won't make them mean that's absurd.

No, this is an old myth that just won't die.
Even if he bites someone and smells blood he won't want to eat them for his dinner. There is a difference between mean and hungry. When dogs are in a mean mood, they are not thinking about food.
I used to have an old collie that would hunt and eat his own food, catching and eating rabbits and sparrows did not make him a mean dog. In fact he was an old softie, could retreive an egg and used to babysit orphan lambs.

Oh, absolutely.
Once your dog has tasted the blood in fresh meat, if you stop feeding it with this, it is going to carve from it and will do anything to get it.
Even eating you.
Alive.
And it won't mind doing so.
Because you are as gullible as a 5 years old kid.
...And you have a grammar that corresponds to this age to prove it.

There is no blood in raw meat that you buy at a store. Unless you are letting your dog kill and eat raw meat, he well not develope the urge to kill again for the meat.

Why would you do that thing? Why don't you eat raw meat and tell us how you like it and the effects it has on you. Give the poor baby dog food.

Absolutely not. The total raw food diet is good for your dog. No kind of meat will ever make him mean.
I have heard that old wive's tale, too.
