I think I'm going to try feeding raw. Just try it one time and if they like it, I'll talk to my parents about it. What kind of stuff should you put in it? Bananna, Peanut Butter, Egg... what else?

Put in what? :confused:
I would do a bit more research if I were you, feeding raw is not something that you can just spontaneously jump into. If you have a question like "what do I put in it" then you aren't educated enough on the subject, just my 2 cents.

It's always a bit scary at first and you'll always wonder if you're doing something wrong or if it's worth it, but don't sweat it. It's alot easier than it looks and you'll pick it up. Just think about what wild dogs eat and take it from there. :)
Woohoo! I believe you need to do alot more research though.. Check out my thread a Few Questions on Feeding Raw, it helped me alot, and I'm sure you can gain some knowledge from it.
Okay, thanks. I'll check out your thread, Bri.
I'm not sure if what I was exactly talking about was raw... but I wanted to make a one-day try out recipe for the dogs. I wanted to know what I should feed in it. Like what fruits or meats... or what?
Well, start them out on chicken. Leg quarters are absolutely great to start on. You can also puree (mix up in a blender) a different blend of veggies if you'd like.Quote:

What about strawberries, oranges, tomatoes, and potatoes? Are they okay to feed?
Potatos should not be fed raw. I can't remember why, but I just remember you can't feed them raw. Everything else is fine. Don't let the veggies and fruits take over the diet.
Good luck :)
Thank you :)
Also raw salmon is extremely toxic to dogs. Research everything first. There's a ton of human foods that are toxic, or at the very least, kown to upset dog's tummies.
That is only true for wild salmon from the North Pacific ocean and the parasite can be killed from being frozen for a week.Quote:
