What did your dog(s) eat today?

[.sarah]

Good news though! Thanks to some tips from sarah, some people from rawfeeder group and some of my own thoughts/ideas I am almost possitive I can begin feeding ONLY raw once again, in the very near future. Not sure if I want to try to feed the rest of the dog food I have (pretty sure I'll be feeding all raw before their dog food runs out) or what though.
And more good news, I found a butcher locally (about a half hours drive) that is saving all the tracheas, chicken feet, pork necks & gullets for me. Which are all excellent foods for arthritis & other joint problems. Hooray for Nanook & Raustyk, hopefully I'll be able to cut down on some or all of their supplements.

I'm glad the rawfeeding group helped you! They were my lifeline when I first started. I still have the occassional question but mostly enjoy reading on that list and learning more. I'd reply more often, but most people on there are way more knowledgeable than me so I don't waste my time. Plus there are generally a billion replies already by the time I go check my e-mails ... I come to Pet Talk first

I do wish it were a forum though, I hate Yahoo groups

Sarah, now I hecka want to join the rawfeeder group! It sounds awesome

Gonzo & Fozzie haven't had anything too exciting today... for breakfast, they each had a beef rib and I had to chase Fozzie around the yard to get his when all of the meat was off. I just gave them each a chicken wing as a snack. Fozzie will have CN with some yogurt for dinner and we have 500 cherry tomatoes so they'll get a bunch of those mushed up. ^_^ Preparing their day-to-day food takes all of 10 seconds, put it in the fridge overnight or in warm water in a bag and throw it at them and you're done. Just for you raw-curious people who think it's too much work, it isn't!

It is, and I can't reccomend it enough! Articles are great, but hearing what works best for thousands of people's dogs on this group instead of just one person's dog in an article is really more encouraging to me I probably would have fed raw with just the articles, but they are all so conflicting that I would have been very confused. This group has helped me to rationalize what does and doesn't make sense.

Do you guys have the link to the Raw feeding group? Maybe some of the stuff they say would convince my mom .

You can ask them about it, I'm sure they'd do anything to help you. They are a very caring group

Since I read in the other Raw thread started by Roxyluvsme that fruit and vedgies have little value if not ground up, I was wondering if it would be good if I blended a bunch of fruits & vedgies together and stuck it in the freezer? Kinda fruit popsicle?

Today they each had a turkey leg.
