ok, ok, I am here.....

I have read up to page 5 and I will continue to read later..I just had to share how excited I am!

I started TJ and Roxy on pre-made last year, they were on it for 6 months and literally a few days before I was about to feed them their first organic chix drumstix, I got their first BAT results back...not good

So that was the end of Raw

It has been 1 year later...Roxy most likely has MVD, she is currently on a home made meal where she get her protein from cottage cheese and eggs. TJ was eating the same thing, but since his first BAT was only a little high and then came back down to normal, I would give him more protein in the form of chicken (cooked). I have since contacted a nutritionist who has balanced the diet I was feeding, but I think with the added supplements, TJ is not happy, he was always a bratty eater and now it is bad again.

So, today I have seriously considered starting TJ on Raw again, as he LOVED it last year.

My brain however is so filled right now with what I needed to do for liver compromised dogs, that I need some time to think again about Raw and such....So, I think I am going to start TJ on the premade again for a couple of months until I can think straight

I may even let Roxy have a chix drumstix everyone once and a while, when I get to that point with TJ, as I think she can benefit from the 'ripping and eating the bone' - I wish I could put her back on Raw totally, but I am so fearful of her MVD, although she shows no symptoms, I am so scared

Any pointers right now is appreciated....
