Yorkie Talker | Hamburg Made Yorkie have diarrhea I made my Riley some hamburg and boiled it he loved it but he next morning he had diarrhea. His stool has always been of good consistency. Do you think it was the hamburg? Up to 10 pounds - 1 to 11/2 cups 11 to 20 pounds - 2 to 3 cups 21 to 40 pounds - 4 cups For each additional 20 pounds, add 2 cups.[/SIZE][/COLOR] BRAVO'S BODACIOUS HEARTY BURGER STEW 1 pound ground beef or turkey 1/2 pound millet 1/2 pound spinach, chopped 1/2 pound carrots, coarsely chopped 2 cloves garlic, chopped 2 tablespoons kelp powder 4 to 6 cups spring water Yield: About 9 cups. Combine all ingredients in a stainless-steel pot with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, then lower heat and simmer for 30 minutes, or until the carrots are tender. Remove from heat, and allow to cool. With an electric hand mixer or a food processor, blend into a puree. Using plastic baggies or yogurt containers, divide into meal-sized portions. Refrigerate three days' worth and freeze the rest. Source: "The Whole Pet Diet: Eight Weeks to Great Health for Dogs and Cats," by Andi Brown [/QUOTE] |

| My little one, actually he is quite large 9.2lbs, had loose stool for quite awhile when he was about 16 weeks. I had his stool tested for parasites and it came back negative. The vet prescribed progut, which worked temporarily. , I finally used slippery elm and it cleared up the problem very quickly. I used the propotions recommended by Dr. Pitcairn. 1 teaspoon slippery elm and 1 cup of water. Bring to a boil and then simmer for 2 to 3 minutes. Add 1 teaspoon of honey. The mixture is quite gelatenous and the slippery elm is difficult to incorporate, but I put it in a small mason jar and shake vigourously to ensure it is mixed properly. I gave Luca 1 tsp every 4 hours. The mixture should only be kept for 2 days and then discarded, but I have found 2 days is usually enough. |

If u can cook well it's really great to cook things as the others do here. But also important I think to make him eat his kibbles. One problem with yorkie is when we start giving table food, he'll just stop eating kibbles. Mine now eat well royal canin without problem. I try as much as not giving human food, even if I give, I won't mix with his kibbles so he learns that kibbles are to be eaten that way. And other things, such as additional meat or some table food are for snacks and prizes if he finishes his kibble portion... But that's my case, let's hear others too

| Some ingredients in Recipes. Hello all, Please do not take this as negative but have you asked your vets about some of your ingredients such as garlic and olive oil? The only reason I am asking is because garlic reduces their red blood cells and olive oil is considered toxic to animals. I have been told this by several vets as I move around every few years. Plus some of these things they don't have the enzymes in their stomachs to break down. For example flax seed. It is good and healthy for the animals but you should use the oil instead because of the lack of enzymes to break down the seeds. These are only questions based of off info I have been given by professionals. Thank you for any feed back. |

| Thanks for the recipes. I worry about what to feed my Emmylou. She really is picky. Since she is a puppy still, (5 months) are there things on this list I shouldn't feed her? I would like to try some of these out. Again thanks. |

| Reply to WINTERSFANTASY- I've heard garlic is bad for dogs... But this is the first I've heard about olive oil. So I did a little research. Still didnt come across a single claim that olive oil is bad for your dog. Obviously, the caloric intake for your dog should be considered... But I'm wondering where you heard olive oil is bad for dogs? Ironically, I came across plenty of literature recommending adding olive oil to your dogs diet... http://www.dogster.com/lifestyle/dog...diet-olive-oil I have extensively and regularly researched toxicity in dogs in peer reviewed journal articles, regular dog lover web pages and magazines, and by asking my veterinarian because we lost a dog recently and we fear the possibility of having exposed her to something toxic without knowing, whether food or otherwise. I have actually never given my dogs olive oil directly in any way, other than maybe meat I cooked in olive oil. But, please let me know so I can be sure not to expose my dogs to it if is in fact bad for them. And if you know the extent of its toxicity, such as... is exposing them to food cooked in olive oil also bad.. that would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

| Chicken & Quinoa with pictures! Chicken & Quinoa Makes about 15 servings Ingredients 2 cups cooked organic free range extra lean ground beef or ground lean turkey or ground lean chicken 1 1/2 cups cooked organic Quinoa 3/4 cup pureed organic vegetable mix (boiled broccoli, pumpkin, carrot, peas, spinach) 3/4 cup pureed organic fruit mix (apple, banana, mixed berries) 1 cup cooked organic Oatmeal 1 hard boiled egg 3 crushed garlic cloves **To make this a balanced nutritional meal you will need to add vitamins etc. Read below to see what I use Steps 1. Cook ground meat thoroughly with crushed garlic. Set aside. 2. Cook quinoa in separate pot. Set aside. 3. Boil egg. Set aside. 4. Cook your veggies then put them in a food processor with fruits and hard boiled egg, then puree. Set aside. 5. Cook oatmeal in another separate pot or microwave if you're using instant oats. Set aside. 6. Put all ingredients into a long casserole type dish and mix thoroughly. Use a spatula to flatten the mixture in the dish and let cool down a bit. Then portion it out and place individual portions into saran wrap and wrap each portion separately. Freeze all portions and take out however much you need the night before to thaw in the fridge. Supplements needed for a complete balanced meal: Multi-Vitamin: Rx Vitamins for PETS - Rx ESSENTIALS FOR DOGS (Really great high quality with extras like spirulina, chicory root, milk thistle, kelp, beta carotene) Omegas: Abound - Hemp Oil for dogs Probiotic: Rx Vitamins for PETS - Rx Biotic Extra Supplements that Buster takes (because he's 13 and in his golden years): Glucosamine for joints: UBA Vet Gold - Glucosamine HCL powder formula Bowel health support: RX Vitamins for PETS - Nutrigest Vision supplement: Ocu-GLO RX Organ support (liver & kidney): Standard process - Arginex Kidney support: Standard process - Renafood Energy supplement: Ultimate pet - Rejeneril Cough relief: NaturTech - Respirare **Garlic is a controversial ingredient for dogs. I personally believe it to be safe but if you don't..just leave it out! Here is a great read on Garlic for dogs and how its safe: Garlic For Dogs: Poison Or Medicine? | Dogs Naturally Magazine Last edited by Bird; 07-21-2013 at 10:48 PM. |
