Hey, So this is my second attempt at raw.. This is my third week of attempt #2 :) As of now, i havent introduced any offal of vegetable matter.. Offal will be introduced tonight for the first time with a bony meal and it will be chicken liver Our dog is underweight so we are feeding...

Ok, so following your guys' advice i still havent added any organ.. Which i think was definately a smart move as it appears our dog still has loose stool sometimes.. Still, his stool is way better then it was before most of the time and obviously much less.. A little update; While we...

Sorry for the confusion guys.. I had been feeding 1 kilo a day broken down into 2 meals until now.. I understand that the percentages im reading are often guidelines i just wasnt sure if the 1kilo a day was too much to be starting with or if i should reduce.. But thanks for clearing it up...

Thanks guys for all of the information, you are all really helpful. I read that too much bone can cause poo that is too hard and even crumbly, but the odd part was that between his first poo and then his second, only 20-25 minutes had passed and the first one had been 'chalky' (still brown)...

After 6-7 months and 3 different types of high end kibble (orijen regional red, fromm surf and turf, before grain chicken) and still having to deal with soft stool-diareah we have decided to switch our dog to a raw diet.. He is close to 11 months old now and weighs an estimated 60lbs.. He is...

... Thankyou for the information:) after his bath we have noticed that the hair has come out a little bit in some places of these little spots... we have another vet appointment on saturday if it hasnt cleared up we will definatly ask for a scraping.(if it gets worse we will take him...

.. so here is a picture : mange? picture by srroy - Photobucket so basically we noticed one maybe two weeks ago and we noticed that a few more have appeared...they seem to be more on his front shoulders..when i try and separate the hair to see them better it looks almost like a miniscule...

we hope its not mange :s we feed him orijin red, we dnt think it would be an allergy to that because hes been on it for a while now... we really hope it isnt mange!we have been researching more and more and he seems to be getting these spots where they say mange appears(like his forearms and...

Hello everyone! So our 5 1/2 month old white boxer has developed wierd spots on his skin. We dont see him itching them or licking them. I have looked closely at them and have seen teeny tiny scabs (vet said it would be from the a hair falling out) the vet didnt seem to really know what it was...

I know many of you recommend 'eye envy'.. I havent been able to find that specific brand of tear stain remover, but i have tried another one which is sold locally.. It doesnt seem to be doing much though and is a bit difficult to get our puppy to stay still for long enough to let us put it...

So, Ive read on the forum (although a tad bit late) that its best to avoid high protein diets for puppies.. We just got our dog a few weeks ago and the breeder (a well respected one, registered, who has been breeding boxers for 15 years) told us the food we needed to get was 'Royal Canin...

:) Thank you so much for the info! They gave us 3 pills he has took one already...we have another appointment for him on thursday with a better , more trusted vet(the other one was one that was available but did not seem to know much) The other vet we trust more.He took care of my...
