I have also fed raw meat and bones for 40 + years it is a very natural product. our puppies are always reared on raw and start on raw bones from 4 weeks of age.
As with @Tinytom and @Hemlock we have never come across any problems with raw bones of any description.
Having been a veterinary nurse...
Absolutely as @Tinytom has mentioned you can buy ready made complete frozen nuggets. These are very convenient and clean to use. Some dogs that have been brought up on the commercial kibbles find it very difficult to make the change, taking the new food introduction slowly is sometimes the best...
Raw bones are a good suggestion for keeping the mouth and teeth healthy. All raw bones from any animal are safe even raw chicken bones. The bones that can be dangerous are cooked ones.
Man made chews are made from rubbish products and can contribute to upset tummies and sometimes other...
Before you consider mating your dog you should consider what hereditary diseases he may unknowingly be carrying.
Start your health testing with a Kc / BVA eye test and ask for a gonioscopy (glaucoma )
to be included as this can affect the 3 types of Spaniel in your mixed breed. This has to be...
I have never experienced Pyometra so can not comment. I have had entire bitches for 56 years. There has been at times the occasional girl who's season has gone on for four weeks but never as a regular thing and I certainly did not worry.
Of course there are vets who like to get us worried about...
We have an 11 year old Cocker who very seldom shows any need for affection or cuddles. Needless to say that after waiting 2 years for her mum to be mated and for her to arrive when she was 7.5 weeks of age, I was quiet upset with this no cuddles puppy. :(
Now after 11 years we understand each...
Ours too are on a raw diet.
They get household scraps (nothing edible is thrown away in our house) all peelings are peeled over a rubber backed mat in the kitchen and the only other thing they may get to eat when we are feeling generous is a good handful of Millies Wolfheart scattered on the...
Hello and welcome.
I must say how nice it is to see that you mention one of your dogs as a Yorkie cross poodle and not a "Yorkipoo" or whatever such crossbreed name may be given:rolleyes:
We all love to see pictures of our new doggie members, do you have any for us to see ?.
If you want small firm poo's and you are going to transition her to another, I would suggest trying a raw product :rolleyes:
It's a wonderful highly nutritional product, our dogs have evolved to eat this. Change over is easy.:)
Our vets advice regarding our pets dietry needs should be taken with caution, it is a well known fact that vets have very little or no tuition while at college regarding what a canine animal should eat. Please read my link.
Myths About Raw: Is my vet really qualified to be giving...
We have used raw products for a good 40 years, and have never had any problems with it. Poo's are always firm and there is almost NO smell. Raw is of course an appropriate food for our canine friends unlike the masses of wheat and fillers that are in so many of the modern day kibbles, which can...
I need to touch, feel and try on when buying to wear.
I do buy my waxed leggings online for the "Beating" season, they are not fashionable and most are one size fits all.
Good job that you have managed to get a pair of waxed trousers that are comfy. :)
