i took up the dry,,, shaffer doesnt seem to mind, i know his eating habbits so i know when he likes to eat, he also goes for an afternoon visit at my neighbors she is a retired schhol teacher he goes and eats down at her place everyday so im not worried about shaffer and he could stand a half pound loss.
I was was wondering more about how much to feed, the bag seems like a crazy amount of dry, the stella and chewy says he should have 2 burgers a day that seems high also. i dont want to over feed him but i dont want him hungry either, he likes carrots and corn brusselsprouts ,, vet said corn was fine i dont thinkit was,,, i give him dry as a treat when he does things well and veggies, and he gets a GOOD treat a few times a day, shaffer is
a treat snob,and treats add to his weight issues, and he is also a lazy dog.
... i am teaching cooper to play ball and give me his paw sit and stay, he got the steps up to the bed in one night. he is so eager to please, I am his 4th person and i guess he wants to keep me. Shaffer taught him how to chew a chewie, he also seems to love the merrick flossies now that he knows what to do with them, he is over 2 and still has baby teeth i have had hima week now and already 2 fell out the rest will be taken ot fri when he is fixed and has his dental,, his teeth are already so bad, Im glad he is with me now. He is pretty active he loves to run and play around shaffer watches him like its tennis pretty funny.
