raw feeding

that's not my dog but her sister and that was a little goat

 

I tried giving my dog some ground up goat last night and he wanted nothing to do with it first meat he ever turned his nose up at

 

Hey, I'm not going to put down anybody for feeding what and how they have to feed. If kibble works for your dogs, your time constraints and your budget,...more power to ya. But when a dumbassed dogfood salesman who wouldn't know shit, even if he couldn't smell it, starts preaching about how much better kibble is than chicken I really have to wonder what the fuck he's smoking,...and more importanly how can I get some. Seriously, what does he think they make dried kibble out of? Just because they use feathers, feet, beaks, innards and the rest of the processing plant leftovers to make their superior protein source, and I prefer to use backs and whole birds, does he really think that shit is so much better that what I'm feeding. Oh right...right.....they add back the vitamins that the blast furnace cooks out. I forgot.

 

Here is the meal that I fed to my dog 10 minutes ago

dirty d where did you get the apple cider and how much and how often do you give it?

 

you can pick it up at any health food store make sure it has the mother in it I payed 5 bucks for that little bottle I got and I give it daily. Here is a good thread on it for dosage info and benefits http://www.game-dog.com/forums/showthread.php?t=43652

 

and here is a good tool to give you a basic idea on how much raw to feed for those starting out or who want to double check there intake http://www.lukesallnatural.com/download/NewPersonalDogFeedingGuide.xls
just punch in your number on the chart and it will automatically calculate for you

 

I mix my cider with water and the dog just chugs it.

 

i put mine right in the food that way I know the whole dose was consumed with the meal

 

sounds good I like that it's organic too

 

its a new one for my dog but so far so good

 

i feed 1 leg quarter a cut of acheap steak and a raw egg,some days rice or yogurt,peas,carrots.and everother day they get dry dog food.+always picking up t bones with meat mostly already cut off.

 

Start them as a pup ?

 

I didn't switch mine to raw until she was a little over a year but she didn't have a problem having the switch

 

Yes you can start as a pup.

 

pups on tripe



i starded with meat, the added chicken neks because they have to learn to eat it with bone and by the time my pup is 8 weeks old it wil be eating anything.
real funny if you have a litter and give them chicken hearts LOL.
soccer time is on !.
To bad i didn't had a video cam

 

I started my dog on raw when he was 7 months or so

 

This is the first litter that grown up on raw and Aileen had it since she's a pup but before i used to give them kibble.
But once you feed them raw and see how they act and respond to it and see that it save you tons of shit too, you do not want to give them kibble again.
