Whoever told you that is an idiot :blink:

Dogs can't digest raw carrot,but it will not harm them & they love to gnaw on them.To gain the full nutritional value from vegetables,they need to be pulverised,ie,put through a juicer.
 
If you are looking for a kibble, just be sure to go with a premium food, no filler, and good sources of protein in the first 5 ingredients. Avoid foods with grain fragments, beef tallow, BHT, BHA, by products and so on.

Have a look at this site. Even though it does talk about US produced dog food it also can give you a good idea on what should you look for in a quality kibble:

The "Ingredients to avoid" was quite helpful to me...

Good luck!
 
Jax, I had been giving him carrots until a couple of weeks ago, but at a recent race meeting someone told OH carrots were poisonous to dogs and he shouldn't have them (w00t)

Must say I had never heard this before, but had stopped giving them to him :(

Am confused now :wacko: - what are the views on this please.






My last IG was overweight so treats were out, but she loved carrots raw or otherwise and she lived to a good age. In fact, thinking back, it was my vet who suggested I give them to her. I have never her of them being poisonous to dogs.
 
I feed my dogs Redmills Racer it's around £11 for 15kg and in my opinion you cannot buy better. My dogs coats shine all year round. I feed it soaked in luke warm water on it's own. I've yet to find a better food for the same price.

lool it up for yourself at (www.redmills.co.uk)
 
Has anyone used the Vitalin Bitch Diet? I've heard good reports on it, but haven't used it. At £30 a bag I think its' over-priced compared to other good makes. As for carrots, mine are fed them occasionally together with other veggies, and I don't think they've had any ill effects. I wonder if someone dreams up these theories.
