Thor's Human Donating Member | Oh, I see that your dog eats ~ 1/6 cup per day. A fifteen pound bag of SG would last you a looooooong time, I would imagine over six months, and probably more. I can't see something about how many cups are in a bag. Let me see if I can find that.

Thor's Human Donating Member | Okay, that's very annoying, I can't find a cups : pounds ratio. But if you have a bag handy, you should be able to figure out how many "servings" the large bag has.

| Olivia "Livie" & Tasha I actually have 2 dogs, Livie & Tasha You're about right on your calculations though... but a 15lb bag lasts me about 3 or 4 months. With baggage allowance being 50lbs per bag, I'd have to ask someone to let me borrow about 1/3 of their baggage allowance every 3 months |

| [quote=delicatepuzzle;2740678]I googled and googled and googled! but didn't come up with anything good. I also went to SG's website and looked to see where they distribute their food internationally. I did the same thing for Wellness and a couple of other brands. None of them distribute to the UAE (or Saudi or Oman - I even thought about driving across the border to pick some food up if it was available in a nearby country). I'm starting to think that I should be happy that RC is even available here...especially after seeing my "grocery store choices" (pedigree, etc.). I guess my situation could be much worse if you think about it. I think I'll try the RC for a couple of months, like someone said earlier in the post, "it's not like it's going to kill them". |

Thor's Human Donating Member | Okay, so you've got a plan. You're all set. Just out of curiousity, what do the locals think of your doggies? Is that like if an American went to a country where people raised bats as pets or something?

| The only locals that have been in contact with my dogs are servicemen...people coming to install things at my house, the doorman, etc. The don't want to touch them, and they don't want the dogs sniffing at their feet. When they come into my house, they usually stand to the side for a minute until I've had a chance to either pick them up or put them in the bedroom with the door closed. Some people ask me how old they are... because they think they're puppies due to their size. I have not taken them for any walks because it's generally anywhere from 110-120 degrees outside during the summer. Once things cool down (October/November) I'll start looking for parks for them. But to tell you the truth, they'd pick their "doggie donut bed" over any park in a heartbeat |
