hi....new owner

hi, just thought id introduce myself as recently rehomed a beautiful staff girl from a rehome centre and am new to this forum.
Myself and my partner have not owned a dog in a number of years and our new girl is our first staff so to hear how other dogs are doing and grab tricks and recommendations from other owners would be great.
The rehoming centre suggested for food, a dry and wet mix but we are finding millie's poo is very smelly and not completely solid. We recently heard that a raw food diet was pretty good.
Something else id like to know is what sort of toys are recommended. We have found a couple of great bits but most things advertised as tough or durable.... last seconds haha.

Basically, any tips or tricks would be greatly received

Hi & Welcome from Flo and me 

Most here seem to swear by a raw diet, more can be found here:-

As for toys... Hmm trial and error but rope toys seem to last longest, the thicker the better but I feel they won't last too long anyways 

Well done on rehoming.. Sounds like your new addition has landed on all 4 paws with you 

Thanks Ian..... ill have a nose!
With regards the toys, Millie certainly loves a good rope

Ah that didn't come out complete..... what I was going to say was she is completely gorgeous and we love her to bits

They are great Amanda... We love pics if you get a spare min
