    Hi, I’m interested in raw feeding :) It seems like a daunting process, and reading the raw food sticky has got me realizing how much conflicting information there is! I have some questions about raw feeding: Which one is easier— raw or whole prey diet? Are there any vets who specialize in...

    Hi guys, If I knew a vet that is not against raw food that is who I would ask the question to, but unfortunately that’s not the case. Has anyone here ever seen an X-ray from your raw fed dog’s stomach, intestin ans colon? I know the food I am feeding my dog includes bones (there are tiny...

    Hi, I’ve been having a bit of trouble with feeding raw lately and I really want to get to the bottom of it as my vet won’t support my dogs raw diet and I was just looking for some advice. Just a bit of background info, Milo is my 28kg, 6 year old Rough Collie and has been raw fed for over a...

    My pack of 4 labs (3) 2 year olds and (1) 16 week old are full raw fed but unfortunately we can’t afford to keep them on full raw- financial set backs due to Covid :( I am going to add kibble to their diet but I am not sure how much to add. The adults are getting about 2lbs per meal but the...

    I have a Rottweiler whose previous owners had her on a raw diet so I want to continue that. I bought an AAFCO book for guidance on what a recipe should be. The AAFCO book recommends (in a table) a daily requirement for a dog in maintenance, per kg of body weight. So let's say I want to make...

    My senior corgi was recently diagnosed with diabetes. Prior to her diagnosis she had stopped eating (obviously) and got quite ill. Once she was on the mend she had no interest in her kibble at all. We feed Taste of the Wild. I switched her to Stella and Chewy's freeze dried raw and oh my...

    Hi all I have put my dogs on a raw diet and a couple of days ago i got 2 months supply of meat for them from naturesmenu.co.uk and put it all in the freezer as soon as it arrived (it came frozen). My dogs are quite small and I feed one 160g per day (Chuwawa) and 260g (Yorkie). So i cant...

    Hello all! Happy hump day :) So I have a question... I have my 2 boys, and one of them seems to be experiencing allergies which have been causing him some gnarly ear infections. We've been to the vet and he's on medication to get rid of his current infection but while I was there I was talking...

    (Bolded questions to make them easier to find) So I've been low on funds lately and my dog's diet has taken a blow. I almost went for pedigree ._. No disrespect meant to those who feed Pedigree, I just don't like that food at all. She has skin issues (she had a biopsy done, so will finally...

    I wasn't sure if I should post this here, in the health topic or in the grooming topic so I apologize if this is in the wrong spot. ANYways, Luna is a kibble eater. And I've noticed that she's gotten a bit of tartar buildup on her back teeth despite weekly brushing. I'm probably going to try the...

    Okay after hearing your supposed to wait like 8 hours between kibble and raw,I`m not sure if I followed that I can give any raw treats anymore. Sense feeding chicken necks or bones past midnight doesn't sound very appealing to me. Also he done well on it before,and giving eggs more than once a...

    Alright, so after thinking about it, I would actually be interested in learning about raw for my Papillon. While I still can't see how commercial foods can be horrible for you dog, I do think he would enjoy eating raw. I think it would be fun for the both of us, but on the other hand I'm worried...

    So I have 2 chihuahuas on a raw diet and their 10% bone comes from raw chicken necks. These are the only type that are suitable as a meal (otherwise they overeat and throw up) that are also readily available in my small town. Ive tried lamb a few times but one dog gets major bowel problems from...

    Hi Im just starting this thread in the hope that someone could give me ideas on how to get organs into my dogs raw diet. They will eat anything from chicken frames to green tripe and necks, however they will not touch the main types of raw organ (kidney/liver etc). The only organ they will eat...

    I have been trying to fix my dog's cronic colitis by, amongst other things, changing her kibble. After trying out 2 or 3 brands, a friend whose dog had the same problems with mine (same age, same breeder) recommended Carni Love, a Czech manufacturer's kibble which contains about 70% meat, some...

    I've been thinking about something. All of the premium kibbles that we feed our dogs are free of by-products. A feature which prides itself on quality. But my question is what is in fact so bad about them? I feed my dog acana, one of the highest quality foods available which is free of...

    Ok, I have a question but I don't want you guys to jump all over me. I am a new breeder, but I worked at an animal hospital for 4 years. I have helped many people with their litters. I am aware of all the risks and potential problems. My bitch was vet checked and cleared before breeding and the...

    I have a 9lb 10yo Chihuahua with IBD diagnosed by scope 2-3 years ago. He will not tolerate any of the limited ingredient diets so we cook for him. He gets cooked chicken or duck and boiled russet potatoes. In addition he gets a multi vitamin and sea meal as well as flax oil, .2 budesonide and...

    Hi there! We are about 3 weeks into raising a new Chihuahua-Jack Russell Mix. He's about 3 1/2 months old and we've been feeding him Blue Buffalo Freedom Grain Free Puppy Food for the last 3 weeks. He loves it but I have heard some not-so-good things about Blue and where they get their meat...

    I've hit up local butchers and stores, but haven't found anywhere that will sell me supplies at a reasonable price. Though I read all over that it's supposedly easy to find very inexpensive raw material for dogs, the best I was able to find was around $8/day for each dog. This was based on the...
