raw feed?

hey there and welcome! i feed all my dogs the raw diet happy to give pointers.. will try to log on later to help you out!

I too feed my dogs the Raw Diet! Amber talked us into it and boy has it changed our lives for the better. Dogs are healthier and poop is down!! Whoohooo. there are many websites that have good pointers and even have a calculator for each dog, by weight etc. to give your dog. I feed my dogs a variety of things but for the most part, it is chicken,fish,veggies, and fruit, and suppliment with nuvet and Brewers Yeast with Garlic and Vitamins and Minerals...you can get that at Petsmart and it serves various needs for the dog. We mostly give to our dogs to prevent fleas and ticks and it works most excellent!! It is cheap too!! Like $13 cheap for 1000 pills! You give them 1 oill per pound of dog and I will swear by it! All my neighbors have ticks and fleas but we have NEVER had one flea or a tick because we give them that. But it HAS to be the 21st Centery Brand and you get it from Petsmart, or of course online at their website. It also MUST say Brewers Yeast WITH Garlic and Vitamins and Minerals. That is the only one I can swear by. The fleas and ticks do not like the taste of the dog's blood.

hey Lynette can you clarify how much you give them on the brewers pill? surely you didn't mean 1 pill per pound.. is it 1 pill per 10lbs? And you do that daily right?

thanks guys. those are all good pointers. how much does this regiment run you per dog on average if you dont mind me asking. my girl is a year and a half and weighs about sixty lbs now.

OMG AMBER THANKS FOR CORRECTING ME. NOT EVERY POUND, PLEASE DON'T GIVE ONE FOR EVERY POUND OF THE BREWERS YEAST!!! MY BAD. IT IS EVERY TEN POUNDS YOU GIVE ONE PILL. SO IF YOUR DOG IS SIXTY POUNDS, YOU GIVE 6 PILLS A DAY! GEEZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ THANKS FOR CATCHING THAT AMBER! TIME FOR BED FOR ME...LOL

haha.. i was thinkin omg how many pills would that be a day.. lmao... btw tks i had done some research on this and the thread helped alot.. much appreciated
