What did your dog(s) eat today?

[Kfamr]

What are you putting in them besides yogurt? We were thinking banana, peanut butter, canned pumpkin ... stuff like that.

Some that I've made contained:

Carrots, Celery, & Tomato
Banana & Yogurt
Oatmeal, Peanut Butter, & Banana

Basically anything other than meat, I mix it up and put them in cups as frost paws.

I've been cutting them out of the cups and putting it into their bowls, or giving it to them in the cups to lick out. It takes them more time to eat it in the cups, so that's a plus. If it's out of the cup they just bite right into it and it makes me cringe! (My teeth are very cold sensitive.)







Roxyluvsme,
Rinse it off. You don't even have to do that really. Simba's eaten twigs, dirt, etc with his meat because he seems to think he HAS to eat it in the grass and won't eat it on the patio. Silly dog.

I never thought of rinsing it off
I'm going to have to try some frosty paws.. But we dont have any banana or a blender..

[Kfamr]

Uhhh.. I forgot all of what I just gave them but it went something like this..


Chicken
Egg with shell
carrots
bananas
capsicums
garlic powder
celery
yogurt


and Simba took a nice healthy poop afterwards.

Bri, I dont have a blender anymore either, when I made the frosty paws I mixed it all up with the electric mixer, it worked great.

Okay, here was their dinner:

Trout filet, pork tail, egg, and veal liver for all of them. Buck also got a chicken quarter and Nova and Mandy also got three chicken feet each.

Carrots, Celery, & Tomato

Thanks! I also was thinking making a carob flavored one. They've loved the carob flavored treats I've made before, so I think it'll be a winner

I just mix them by hand *shrugs*

The boys had one chicken leg quarter each for breakfast. I didn't have time to cut it so they got a really filling meal today. =P

For dinner they had turkey and a little bit of turkey heart.

QUESTION FOR THOSE OF YOU WITH CATS AND FEED RAW:
is it ok to give my cat basically the same things i do my dogs?
(obviously in a much smaller portions)

Absolutely! Except cats are carnivores too, so do not be surprised if they don't eat any fruit/veggie and please don't push it on them either, all meat is better for them.
Now a little here & there isn't going to hurt just like us humans sometimes eat junk food & the like. If you have a cat like my Tiki, he will eat just about anything and he loves it all too!

Oops forgot to post this mornings breakfast.

I fed them a large meal as we are leaving to go on a camping trip this afternoon. I wasn't sure how hectic it would be there and how Kaige & Indy would re-act (this is Kaige's first time camping & Indy's second besides camping in our yard). We'll be gone for 5 days total. I wanted them to have a full belly this morning in case they dodn't want to eat tonight or if they act different & I may not want to feed them tonight.

5:30 am, they each had:
chicken quarter (they were huge)
chicken organs (liver, heart, gizzard) (2-4 pieces each)
pork ribs (2-4 each)
egg & shell

And now they are knawing on a beef bone which is almost at the take away stage.


For the next 5 days while camping I packed:
Chicken quarters
pork ribs
eggs
I wanted to keep it simple as I am not sure how their systems will handle this trip.
We'll probably pick them up something different at the store while we are there as we have to go out Sunday & get fresh salads anyways. (always gotta check out new stores for meat deals)

[lv4dogs]

My dad just stopped by with a treat for the dogs. Guess they really are getting their fill this morning. I may have to skip tonights meal no matter what now. lol

What was that Gramps, you gots us a nummie?


What did someone say nummie? WAIT FOR ME I'M COMING


Mmm more pork ribs


Boy these are gooooooood


Very good


I love the skin/fat type stuff, it's da bomb


Am I in heaven?


I think I am.


Why is this skin stuff so hard to get off, it's soooo good


Ok, I think I got it

[cloverfdx]

That is wonderful that everyones dogs are doning well. Hopefully the detoxing will stop soon. Indy's coat looks gorgeous and shiny. Sarah i had to cover the screen from Clover when i scrolled down past the Labbies dinners .

Last night the kids had chicken wings (Bought a kilo of mixed chicken portions and they were all wings ), they also had a little bit of beef mince and some yogurt. Tonight they will probably have chicken again tonight, i need to pick it up before trainng in the morning (3 whole chickens for $10 woohoo). Hopefully the meat wholesaler will have some sales on so i can stock up for the coming weeks.

ETA: Clover used to be my "fat dog" she is now the best built out of the lot of them, her muscle mass has increased, and she does not have an ounce of flab on her anymore. I am so happy with how she is doing, her energy level is up aswell. And i hope i am adding a few extra years onto her life.

Ok, so Roxy likes her meat frozen, strangely. At least she seemed to like it while I was out there. She had a chicken quarter. Lily is the opposite and likes her thawed, plus defrosted for about 2 min. I haven't switched Lily back to Raw yet, just Roxy for the moment. Eventually, they'll both be back on it, but for now just Roxy.

Today, Daisy ate canned mackerel which she loves, chopped bok choy, gala apple.

I was gone to San Francisco yesterday and today, up until now. They got pretty spoiled, because I thawed extra special things for them to keep them in a good mood while Mommy's gone. It didn't really work for Gonzo, he slept by the door all night and he's acting a little spazzy now that I'm home (like not wanting to leave me).

Gonzo (yesterday) ~ 1/4 of a duck (he loves duck, 100x more than chicken. wierdooo.) and a pig snout! He also got a frosty paw for dinner/dessert.

Fozzie (yesterda) ~ Duck leg, a chicken liver & a chicken heart with chicken muscle meat, and a frosty paw for dinner.

Gonzo (today) ~ Buffalo Farmore, and he will get some fruit puree for dinner. He's gnawing on a knuckle bone right now, he gets 10-15 minutes with that =0)

Fozzie ~ Lamb Shank for breakfast, some Farmore Buffalo for lunch, and he will get a frozen kibble-and-fruit-puree Kong later tonight.


Kay, I really like your frosty paws idea. We all know that Frosty Paws by Purina can get a little pricey and aren't exactly nutrionally balanced! I'll definitely make some of those, sounds very easy.

The girls had a chicken quarter for breakfast, Buck had beef brisket. They all had beef heart for dinner and Buck also had a chicken quarter.

The frosty paws flavors I made were: carrot, carob (carob powder and carob chips), peanut butter, tuna, and just plain yogurt.
