| ???'s about FOOD!! HONEST KITCHEN, NV, (RAW DIETS), & PRO-BIOTIC YOGURTS...... initially, we made the switch over to Nature's Variety kibble & canned.. the girl's did well with that-so we got a bag of NV RAW medallions (chicken) & they both did well with it.. Gemma(5months) wasn't crazy about it and would eat it but it took her a while and alot of times wouldn't eat it all.. but i really like the idea of feeding RAW.. do u think it's because she is a puppy? i don't know does anyone mix the RAW medallions with a little bit of the NV canned??(for Gemma only) Also.. we tried The Honest Kitchen (they sent us some samples) and my girls LOVE IT!!!! i have a couple questions for people who feed this.. *what is your feeding schedule with this? do you feed the same kind of HK on a daily basis? do you add any protein to the HK? (if so, what are you adding?) i know that NV has the rotation diet.. and you can feed kibble, canned, RAW in combo. do you think adding HK to the mix would be ideal? now.. people who feed pro-biotic yogurt.. is it ok to feed this to a 5month old puppy?? also.. how much are you feeding your babies?? we give cottage cheese to both our girls and they love it.. i have only fed the PB Yogurt to Avery, though. wasn't sure if it was ok for a puppy?? (don't see why it wouldn't but wanted to double check) what other extra foods are you giving your babies on a day to day basis.. cottage cheese, yogurt, etc. and any other supplements you add to your foods?? (we have Avie on glucosomine for her LP and she takes a pill for her Hypothyroidism, as well)

They didn't want it at first, but then they were fine with it. I feed 1 tbl spn of regular yougart, or vanilla, or strawberry. WOW watch them come running for strawberry yougart. And I use NuPro supplements twice a week.

we used to have Avery on Canidae.. she ate it for a while, but never really cared for it AT ALL!! so we switched her to another kibble, which she liked much better!! BUT now we are wanting to feed RAW.. so that's why we are on Nature's Variety and The Honest Kitchen. As for the yogurt.. i have been giving them yogurt and cottage cheese! which they love.. i just wanted to double check about the puppy (5months) and was curious if it was ok to feed a probiotic yogurt to her. so thanks for the input.. glad to hear your babies love it also.. ill have to look into nupro supplements.. don't know much about them. thanks.
