Have you read this thread: http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/yor...odel-diet.html
It covers a lot, if not all of your questions. Dogs are not sensitive to parasites in the same way that we are - unless their immune systems are compromised. You can read more about that exact thing and other myths related to raw feeding here: The Many Myths of Raw Feeding
How has your baby's poo been, good? You could also try feeding a lamb chop - have you tried that? If the poo is good, you could maybe try a bit of organ meat, but I would go very slow as organ meat can initially cause some digestive issues in some. Have you tried raw egg yet?
Variety is definitely good, but I wouldn't worry to terribly if this first week or so is just chicken - especially as Daizy is just getting used to it. You're doing GREAT. |
Whew I was worried after the first couple posts I might only be getting ANTI-RAW feeder comments! lol Thanks so much!!!!
Well her stool has very soft today...almost a little runny...but she seems to be doing well in other ways...she's WAY MORE SATISFIED than she's ever been...she always was a begger for anything anyone ate...and wouldn't touch her food...now she sleeps after each meal...and she hasn't been begging at all...which is totally shocking to us all.....
And she is still getting used to chicken....but she prefers the leg to the breast right now..and I was worried about feeding her too many legs...what is the usual amount of bone that is given to dogs? I did read those posts....especially the first one...I read ALL of it.....the only one I don't think I read all of was the myths...I did know that dogs digestive system is a bit different than humans that they were'nt as suseptible to bacteria....but I just had to ask anyhow.
Is there a more private place to talk about raw feeding...other than the support groups..like I meantioned earlier I haven't been able to get into that yet.......And more importantly I really don't want people getting upset at MY choice to feed raw...and I don't want to offend anyone either...I adore my baby...and I absolutely didn't get into this type of feeding lightly. And I want anyone that is going to read this thread to know that.
