What's in the bowl today! (graphic photos - raw)

First topic message reminder :

Right i've done this thread on another site, but the idea is to show photos, or tell others what the pooches had to eat today.

This is mainly for raw feeders, but anyone is welcome to add. It also helps new raw feeders get ideas for meals or to know what things look like

Some of these photos are new, some are from when Harv was a few months old








To be continued..........

Two or three wings should be about right. I don't feed kibble at all though, so I might well be wrong!

I'm same as you now Caryll, I just feed a bit of this and a bit of that and if he is looking a bit fat then I just feed a little less than yesterday. If I was to guess I would say 2 would be plenty

Yes, Dempsey's back on his diet cause he's put on half a kilo-ish! I want him back down to 28 kilos.

I'm putting my old girl on a slight diet aswell, trying to do it so no one notices a drastic difference

She's about 3-3.5kg overweight, her healthy weight was 20kg, she got weighed the other week at 23 or 23.5kg but I'm the on,y one who notices she's got a bit too much padding

Vet said her joints are starting to get sore and stuff so the extra weight isn't helping either!

yes i give 2 wings in the morning and about 500gr ish of meat and bone night time
i think 2 wings is good amount to start the day on

I used to feed twice a day but now I just feed in the evening. I found with Blue being a fussy eater he eats better later on in the day. Maybe he feels he has worked for it, after his walks and tiring jobs of chasing sticks and shredding them into wood dust

I feed just once a day late afternoon

Loxi is Still a puppy so should be on 10% of expected adult body weight ?

10% of puppy weight, or 2-3% of expected adult weight. With Sierra being nearly 14 weeks I just give her 2-3% of her expected adult weight!

Its 10% of puppies weight not 10%of expected adult weight or you will be feeding upto 2kg a day to your pup

up to you i never bothered with the 10% of body weight, i started straight away at 2-3% of adult expected weight and adjusted from there

but eyes are tasty!!!

their SOULS ella. not just eyeballs but their SOULS!!

nom nom tasty souls

heeby jeebies!!!


on our walk today there was fur everywhere (buzzards) and lexi was having a right sniff lol

haha

I'm fascinated with the idea of giving Loki a whole rabbit just to see if he'll know it's food, or just rag it around cos it's fluffy and fluffy = toys in his mind. Gross

The boys rag all their food first to 'kill' it then they eat it

today mutton feet, liver and ground lamb

Whats the powder Ella?

diatomaceous earth

Had a feeling it might of been. Was thinking of getting this for Blue instead of using chemicals. Where can I get it from and how often do you give it? is it fo 60 days? then do it again after 3 months?

I gave a teaspoon to all 3 dogs once a day for 2 weeks and then give it 2-3 times a week! I got 2kg of it from eBay, looks like it'll last about a year at least!

and dont worry which one you get fresh water or marine both do same job

Should be food grade though! I got mine from http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/150872889509?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649#ht_1243wt_952&clk_rvr_id=393779065629&afsrc=1

I have the same one as stu ^^^^ been using it about 8 months and have tons left

I gave a good teaspoon once a day for at least 2 weeks and then 2-3 times a week after that so yer same as Stu

today was ox tongue, lamb heart, mutton bones and pig skin

Thanks Stu, Wazza & Ella.

Always a great selection Ella. Dogs are spoilt

thanks

Today's meal was rabbit portion and head with frozen pigs skin


recently
Frozen trotter, skin, liver and duck eggs!


neck of mutton, chicken scraps and fish


bones, whole lamb tongue, beef heart and pig skin

Great selection as always.
Got my delivery from DAF and Blue is loving his new diced lamb.

Glad he likes it

Today was half a turkey neck, turkey organs, chicken scraps and lamb bones

yummy memphis licking his lips at the pictures

Chicken mince, ox heart, tripe and an egg.


Chicken mince, ox heart, tripe and an egg. (Bigger portion for Bailey)

Looks great. Same meal as Blue had yesterday but he had diced lamb instead of mince
Wish Blue would eat mince get more choice in mince. He will have chunks and even diced but mince he just refuses to eat.

Bailey refuses to eat most bone/chunks! He only ate half his breakfast, so it's bagged up and he'll get it for his dinner lol! It's getting ridiculous with his eating habits. If he doesn't eat, he doesn't get treats or anything until he does eat haha!

And yet the boys eat everything haha

Sierra will eat anything! She's a walking bin lmao sometimes I have to let Sierra eat a bit of Baileys from his bowl and then he'll eat it

haha awww

I think having more than 1 dog does seem to help their appetites

Wanna see blue turn into a hampster storing his stag bar, kong, treats, dinner when one of the cats walk in the room

My boy Tank is a fussy sod ! Some mince he will only eat without protest if it's semi-frozen !

And with things like tripe it's good on ya nose to give semi frozen lmao !!

Bailey got his leftover breakfast at tea time, plus another chunk of tripe and 2 bits of ox tail. He ate the lot

Bailey had pork ribs, chicken mince and offal.

Sierra had chicken mince and a duck wing (mince over 2 meals as she's still on 3 a day)

Both had Keepers Mix and DE aswell!

both had tripe and a chicken carcass with DE and keepers mix
