My Picky Pooch Hello everybody, Dante' and I are new combers to this site. I just wanted to share that my wife and I was givin a yorkie from a puppy mill. He lived in a crate for months in a room 12' x 8'x 7', with little or no human contact, amongst 35 other little family members. We have been working with him, seeing he is very scitzoed and un-socialized. Dante' was very skinny and very very picky. I figured out that Dante' was hooked on salt, seeing the puppy mill fed thier little bundles of joy balonge and spam, very high in sodium. I cooked off a 22 pound turkey, removed all the meat from the bones, put in a food processor, added 3 cups barley, 3 cups oats, 1 cup cream of wheat, I had healthy dog food for 2 months. Dante' has gained alot of healthy weight and is on his way to a healthy recovery and has been weened off the Sodium addiction. Dante's coat is very shinney and glistens, he would make a wonderful christmas tree top this year and I'm sure thats not on his mind, LOL!. |
