My friend and breeder of my dog opened my eyes and we, the dogs and I , never looked back. I have healthy dogs, their coat shines, no yeast in ears, cleaner teeth, small bowel movements . The dogs and I have never been happier and all I ask myself was ' what took us so long ? ' Species appropriate is what we feed. <br />Liv with Moose and Pepperfireflyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13913152238272451291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5954899999461832288.post-17367151690678473602009-08-25T17:16:47.683-05:002009-08-25T17:16:47.683-05:00Hi Beatriz, we use K9 Liquid Health Glucosamine &a...Hi Beatriz, we use K9 Liquid Health Glucosamine & HA, although there are several good supplements out there: http://www.liquidhealthinc.com/prodInterior.php?prodID=40<br /><br />The best salmon oil we've found is Only Natural Pet Pure Salmon Oil in the shiny green can: http://www.onlynaturalpet.com/products/Only-Natural-Pet-Pure-Icelandic-Salmon-Oil/999060.aspxRowdy and Bettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02084557400493597650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5954899999461832288.post-34981868490088306662009-08-25T16:35:24.025-05:002009-08-25T16:35:24.025-05:00where do you get your supplements from?where do you get your supplements from?Beatrizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13895200742623766383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5954899999461832288.post-48575768996437611512009-08-10T04:40:06.471-05:002009-08-10T04:40:06.471-05:00I have had my two on a raw diet since I had them b...I have had my two on a raw diet since I had them both (5yrs & 4yrs). Both have healthy weights and have the softest, silkiest coats of any dog I have ever met. The benefits to a raw diet well out weigh canned or kibble food (far too many to list). I highly recommend it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5954899999461832288.post-48512188931790298752009-08-07T16:57:52.012-05:002009-08-07T16:57:52.012-05:00While I don't throw a fit if the Schatz should...While I don't throw a fit if the Schatz should eat a bone once in a while, I would think twice about a totally raw diet. I think I'll folow my vets advice to avoid people food as much as possible. Besides, he doesn't seem to really like anything raw. He likes to barbeque....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5954899999461832288.post-76035241283224348982009-08-07T13:52:46.456-05:002009-08-07T13:52:46.456-05:00Hey Ike - we love the green tripe!

Nothing is stinkier or better!<br /><br />Melissa - dogs are different than us in that healthy dogs can handle some e-coli or salmonella without issues. While we wouldn't recommend burying a raw meaty bone and digging it up later for dinner as a wolf might do in the wild, there aren't issues. Also, the meats the dogs eat should be fresh and human-grade quality. Dogs eat poop without issues - mother dogs clean up after their litters. In a recent recall of dog food infected with salmonella, no dogs got sick, but something like 68 humans did or something. Most of the commercial raw diets are tested for acceptable levels of any bacteria before they are shipped out.Rowdy and Bettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02084557400493597650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5954899999461832288.post-90143264357380584782009-08-07T13:16:08.363-05:002009-08-07T13:16:08.363-05:00Sounds interesting, but how is it that the dogs do...Sounds interesting, but how is it that the dogs don't get food poisoning from eating raw meat?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5954899999461832288.post-57347797643115512042009-08-07T10:46:09.042-05:002009-08-07T10:46:09.042-05:00Thanks for the plug!
