my gf would have a field day on this thread… according to the vet there are so many no nos involved w certain veggies. And salt
Me on the other hand I say it’s dog a however long it’s reigned on this earth it’s been hunter or scavenger of raw meat, so let the damn dog enjoy his life and have some decent meals I say…she’d rather em eat kibble only which I think is stupid but she thinks she knows it all bc she works at vets office
thats interesting that your dog buries food. part of my dogs genetics are strong food drive. Ive never seen her stop eating and shes does dumb shit like steal whole roasts off the counter at holidays. she can eat 5 lbs meat.
I dont measure all the time but I approximate 2.5 % is a good meal, shes 55 lbs so thats around a pound and a quarter. i give around 2-3 quarters. or 5-6 drums or thighs. or when whole chickens on sale she gets a half. and extra treats like liver or human food. She got 2 tacos last tuesday, they fucked my order up and I dunno what the fuck was in them. One was probably cactus or pure fat. Another was mexican sausage, after ordering it I saw chorizo so got that too. The mexican sausage was gross but cheech loved it.
I have never fed my dogs raw food so not sure but one of the guys who does should have an idea. I would guess that if you stop feeding bones for a few days or so you will have an idea if that’s the issue if his poop changes. I suggest not giving your dogs restaurant food. My dog has never even eaten table scraps. I make my dogs food up every 2 weeks and freeze in 1 serving bags.
My dogs get all the eggs they want. Every other day they get 1/2 chicken or duck. Plus lots of beef and pork bones. My 11 year old husky still plays like a pup. It’s funny to watch her when we’re at friends places, she will sniff there kibble and shake her head. I imagine she’s asking why they eat that shit.
my dog would eat kibble if i let her. she ate it before and had what people call normal dog poop. Big brown logs. I filled a freezer with heap meat at the strt of covid and now i gotta remember to feed it to her instead of shopping. She may get the tear and a half old king crab legs if they are freeerburnt which they probably are. when i type that bad- its bd indexing and my contacts going blurry- its almost as if im trying to convey im drunk but its vision.
Yeah my cat loved the raw diet. I fed him mainly chicken, and beef. I stopped feeding it to him because he started losing his hair, but it ended up being because of the litter I was using. He pretty much only eats tuna, and chicken these days. (He’s probably been eating only tuna because his Uncle Tom has been spoiling him since I left.)
Cats can eat pretty much straight protein, and they’re good.
I did lots of research they are omnivores and can eat fruits and veggies and digest it but i feed strictly meat other than treats of food im eating and she stares at me.
I don’t think you’ll see much of an improvement as far as muscle mass. That kind of thing has a lot less to do with the feed and more to do with genetics and conditioning.
That said… feeding your dogs creatine absolutely will build muscle mass if your working them hard enough.
huge muscles arent really good unless its just the dog like a pitbull or a cane corso. Its best to keep dogs lean for health. Police and working dogs are usually smaller so that they can get through the career without hip or elbow issues. Small dogs run fast and hit with power just like the big ones. Breed standard on a malinois male is up to 75 lbs max. And thats about the most badass dog.
