Here' s a review by vegetarian Mark Hand, who still eschewed "meat" even after reading the book. Some might argue that Keith has simply become an advocate of “happy meat”—local, grass-fed, sustainably produced, and humanely raised meat.

I tried soaking it (I soak the dogs' kibble) but she wouldn't eat it. I bought a new laser light and my husband and I have committed to using it every day and getting her to sprint around the house (away from the dogs-don't worry) for at least 15 minutes/day.
