Hi debi. Your pup is great. I have just brought mine home. Am just wandering you you feed yours? Ryan

Do you think by using a non commercial diet that your dogs live longer? And if you had to choose a commercial brand what would it be. Thanx for your advice.

Without a doubt, my dogs are healthier, they dont have rotten farts or bad breath.

My vet said my dogs are in superb condition, when we did our yearly vaccinations, he checked them over head to toe, which is what i always ask them to do.

They close down the vet clinic when i come with my dogs, its so funny.

Ok getting back to your questions, i would never recommend a commercial food because they are all the same, just some are more expensive than others. They tell you it got this and that in it, but the truth is there is more bad thinhg in there than good.

There is a code they use for picking up animals to use in there commercial food. They call it the 3 D's DEAD DYING DISEASED. these are they type of animals they are allowed to use. Dead from road kills to unexplained deaths. Dying, anything dying from road kills to animals that are sick. Diseased, anything sick enough to kill.

Some of the caned food is getting better but its still got the crap with it. By products and meat meal, chick meal, chicken by products, cereal by products.

These are the left over bits that go into huge crates, they dont move them on to the pet food companies until they are full, so the stuff on the bottom is off and smells so bad you cannot get the smell of your clothes of hair.

So no i dont recommend any of it.

My diet is so easy to do, you can cook the meat or leave it raw. You then only need to cook pasta or rice. Cook the veggies and the soup mix which is lentils and beans mixes(keep the liquid to cook the rolled oats in)

Also its cheaper to feed a good healthy diet than commercial.

Have you ever wondered why are dogs are getting human sicknesses when they never did years ago, dry food has only been on the market for 50 years, they found the perfect way to get rid of there waste to out much loved dogs and put wonderful claims on the packets which they are not under the same laws as human grade food, so they can say what the hell they like and it doesn't have to be true..

There is a 5kg mix you can do and bag them up and pop them in the freezer for later use.

You can use
any of the meats you have listed, even mix them if you wanted to. Just
make sure the meat is fresh, i smell it before i buy it.

Can
you get chicken necks over there? if so do you have a mincer or food
processor than can handle 5 kgs of chicken necks. They mince better
cooked.

.

5 kg (11 lbs) chicken necks, rabbit or Beef mince.                           

1 kg pasta(2.2lbs) (dry weight) cooked  = 2kg when wet                                 

1 cup (200g(7 oz) dried soup mix )(dried beans and lentils)(soak, then cook)

3 kg(6.6lbs) cooked frozen mixed veg. (carrots, peas, beans, potato)

1 cup (100g)(3.5 oz) of LSA*            

2 Tablespoons( Kelp powder    

5 cups (500g)(17.6 oz) Rolled Oats  

2 Tablespoons Mild Curry Powder   

2 Teaspoons Garlic Powder    

2 Teaspoons Ginger Powder (NOT FOR WHELPING BITCHES)   

2 Teaspoons Salt              &nb sp;                        &nb sp;               &nb sp;                      &nb sp;                 

Keep all liquids from meat or chicken, cook veggies, and pasta or rice in it and add to mix.

 

Add Stafford Healthy oil to add essential fatty acids

 

*
LSA is, Linseed, Almond, and Sunflower seeds crushed up together. It
provides the essential fatty acids and oils for good skin and coat.

Take the plastic plug out of the 1 lt bottle.

My recipes can be found on my blog, they have been tested in a laboratory, and came back better than we had hoped. There is also a Stafford oil mix we put on there food once a day, the recipe is also on my blog.
