Thanks for the warning...but I'm not unbalancing their diet. They were getting goat milk & maybe a tap from a teaspoon of chia seeds. The goat milk that I got only lasts 10 days & they only had 3-4 days where chia seeds were added, so it doesn't even make up 10% of their diet. I change their treats around, never give them the same thing day in & day out, I like variety & fresh whole foods for them.
Good to know that chia seeds are high in phos, but it also has calcium. Omega 3 should be balanced out w/omega 6 & chia has higher ratios of omega 3's. ALA might not be the best option for dogs, but it sure is awesome for people. |
