sandymere 8,261 Posted January 4, 2010 Report Share Posted January 4, 2010 Why not feed a mixture of all? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Annmarie09 5 Posted January 4, 2010 Report Share Posted January 4, 2010 I prefer not to feed greyhound types on beef at all, some of them have delicate digestions and beef isn't suitable for them. A complete food with chicken, duck, turkey or fish is better. Also, choose one without wheat. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
killa-combo 142 Posted January 4, 2010 Report Share Posted January 4, 2010 Why not feed a mixture of all? slmple... it costs to much money Quote Link to post Share on other sites
shepp 2,285 Posted January 4, 2010 Report Share Posted January 4, 2010 Chicken and tripe mixed of alternate the two, you won't go wrong mate Quote Link to post Share on other sites
killa-combo 142 Posted January 4, 2010 Report Share Posted January 4, 2010 is there a reason for mixing them ? a benifit or just the way you trust ? imo the chicken seems good enough on its own with a little bit of mixer (compleate)..(depending on what the products like as them blocks from pet shops are shit compared to the stuff i use) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

What type of dry feed is also good for lurchers as alot of people say red mills is sh**e ? James Wellbeloved or Wagg Worker. I also add in fish (poached, or tins of sardines in tomato sauce), raw eggs, or chicken to one feed, plain complete food for the second of the day. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Same i add chiken egg tuna fresh macrel etc What is an example of a complete food ? And would they be as high in protien as red mills 28% Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Annmarie09 5 Posted January 5, 2010 Report Share Posted January 5, 2010 James Wellbeloved is all around 20 or 21% protein for the adult variations, the junior variations are about 24%, puppy range is 30% protein. I had my bitch on the puppy food til she was 6 months and then the junior til 14 months, she has been on the adult food for a couple of months. Wagg Worker is 23% protein, I know a few people with working dogs other than lurchers (Springers etc) who use it and they highly recommend it, plus its a lot cheaper than JWB.
