Where are you (most countries have different lines of food)?
I would personally stay away from puppy food. They usually have very high protein that can lead to some growing issues.

I´m sorry for correcting you , draggar - but new reasarch has shown without any doubt that high protein containing of food for puppies does NOT cause any problems.
The difficulties can only come from too high calories / fat containment or / and simply too much non- natural food given to the youngsters. Problems also happen mainly with artifical food , but normally not if you feed "Barf", that means natural food like meat, bones, fish and so on... That`s because of the higher energy containment in the artifical food . It´s a concentration of calories which is normally not given in any natural food. ( if you not try to feed your puppy three times a day with pure lard... ![]() So in the main thing I agree with draggar - I also would not use commercial puppy- food. But of the reasons I told above, not because of too high protein. Best greetings, Silvester Last edited by Silvester; 16-03-2011 at 09:36. Reason: Writing mistake |

You should always watch the ingredients - if you do use commercial food and are in the USA avoid foods that list a "fat" product in the first 4-5 ingrediencts.
As for "natural" foods - giving them raw chicken once a week may not be a bad idea. Most grocery stores in diverse neighborhoods or meat markets / butcher shops will carry chicken backs. Grocery stores will normally sell half backs (1/2 the back) - meat markets / butcher shops will have full backs (both halves and the neck). Give them 2 half backs or 1 full back once a week (including the bones - they help keep teeth clean). DO NOT COOK THE CHICKEN! Runce it under very hot water like you were preparing it for yourself then tive it to the pup as is. Your first few times you might also want to give a little kibble after (1/2 cup?) with some molases in it to help with any potential diarrhea issues that may come around. Raw food is great but can get extremely expensive. BARF is great food, don't get me wrong, but it is very expensive here. For commercial foods (available in the USA) we've primarily used Roay Canin's GSD forumla and Taste of the Wild.

Putting the chicken under hot water is to kill any microbes (like e-coli) on the aurface of the chicken (whcih is normally killed in cooking but this isn't cooked).

We need to get a breeding pair in Bulgaria - that would solve lots of issues with the pack (humans included)!!

May be people who have this monster-rabbit also have this fish in their garden- pond ....instead of a goldfish ! ![]() (It´s a so called African Tigerfish or in latin : Hydrocynus goliath - but you can only meet and say hello to it , if you are swimming in Congo- river...) I want to add, that african people say it´s the only fish which is not afraid of crocodiles - and it´s also called "African piranha". Nice dreams to everybody !
