I usually feed veggies raw. Mine even have knock down fights over celery. Avoid spinach it is very high in oxalates and our breed is prone to stones...also in my experience, feeding spinach has thrown off kidney values and resulted in crystals in the urine after only a few days of feeding so I no longer give spinach or dark leafy greens to them. |
oh no.. I fed them two bags of frozen spinach... I am going to kill my puppies!!
so.. rice is ok, chicken is ok.. lol
I started out with a cup of food... chicken, veggies and potatoes at each meal.
I think I have a better handle on it now....
On a very sad note, before I learned to research as much as I do now.. I fed one of my little shih tuz puppies a grape. She died of kidney failure, not totally sure of the cause but I am sure the grape did not help. It about killed me.. so now my middle name is ask questions.. research!!!!
