i was told that you shouldnt feed raw and dried food, as it digests at totally different rates?

1lb of Minced tripe & mug full of biscuts with a half spoonful of sa37 minerals everyday dogs looking great also some other meats and bones ,i did change recently after trying all types of dryed food and not doing to good

i normally soaked the biscuits in boiling water and leave them to puff up then add cooked mince and give them sardines in tomato sauce for omega 3 once a week /i thiknk thats the name of the fish \ and a raw egg yolk about 3 mornings a week with cornflakes and warm milk ,

sardines for -omega 3

egg yolk -protein

milk-calcium

I give mine a mixture of barf, dried (beta puppy), raw chicken wings a couple cans of Sardines each week and maybe once or twice a week a raw egg with the dried. Went for her second jab at the vets last week he said she was looking really well so this is what works for me. Hope this helps.

You can't beat the old Gilbrights Pilchards for the dog. Cheap and better than that shit tinned dog meat! I mix it with the dry stuff.

My lurcher usually gets raw mince beef, cooked pasta and veg is a good mixer to bulk it out (veg makes em fart tho), tried her on some sardines this morning but she wasn't too impressed.

My whippets get raw chicken wings which they love.

My big whippet loves bones from the butchers with raw meat on them but the last one got BARFed all over the rug

 

Tip you can freeze raw meats/bones to kill germs/bacteria defrost then feed.

The missus puts a slice of bacon in with a big pot of pasta to cook so its tastes good

Bloody hell! some of these dogs eat better than I do!!!

Both of mine are on quailty complete with SA37 skinkled on but also get meat, fat and lamb bones from Morrisons as a friend works on the butcher counter and saves it for me (just wish I could get enough to feed all the time )

They also get a cheap tin a tuna in oil and a cod liver oil tablet once a week.

be careful wi the cod liver oil mate especially if your feeding em dry food as this is already overloaded with vits, excess intake of vitamin A can lead to a build up of toxins in the body causing conditions like joint pain lameness and spinal problems,a teaspoon of cod liver oil provides enough vit A for a week for an average size dog,cod liver oil is not necessary for a healthy normal dog that receives a balanced diet

Thank you Craig, to be honest I haven't actually noticed any differance in them if I forgot to give it to them! so might as well just drop it completely.

 

Cheers
