From the Washington City Paper:
It took two deaths for Carole King to decide to sell raw dog food.
First her dog Russ died. She blamed his dry-dog-food diet for aggravating his anemia. Then veterinarians diagnosed her cat Woody with lymphoma and gave him 3 months to live. Woody had been on a raw-meat diet for a year. He lived for two more years.
“Up to his last day he was eating,” she said.
