Which calcium/phosphorus/calcium phosphate supplements do you use? Ellie went to the vet tonight and we told her about Ellie getting homecooked food. She is fine with it but insists on supplementing with atleast calcium and phosphorus (which I agree with). We are going to start Ellie on Missing Link Vegetarian Formula and I would like to know what products everyone else uses for calcium, calcium phosphate and phosphorus. Thank You |
Layla gets bone meal it is made by Solid Gold. and i get it at a local pet store that sells high quality food |
We use Kal Bone Meal....It's high quality and you can buy it online through amazon.com |
Darn it all. It looks like it is bone meal for Ellie which is something I did not want to do. It is hard to think of her as a dog sometimes that has to eat that "stuff". How gross. I don't wanna but I know I gotta.:( |
Well, I was reading something about bone meal and the article says it can be contaminated with lead and mercury. I also read the ingredients for one brand and it has fluoride as the first ingredient which is toxic, especially if swallowed. I'm very confused.:confused: :confused: :confused: :confused: |
I use Solid Gold's Bone Meal and this supplement: http://www.onlynaturalpet.com/produc...at/999065.aspx |
You could use calcium carbonate instead or bake eggshells in the oven at 350 degrees for 10 min and crush them into fine powder :) |
Are you serious? I can just do egg shells? You are awesome.:) |
Would anyone happen to know how many mg's of calcium a Yorkie should have a day. One site I found said the there are 1900 mgs in 1 teaspoon. Thanks |

I use the eggshells many times too. |
The book that I have states that 1 tsp of eggshells equals 1800mg of calcium. |
I use KAL Inc. Bone meal. I get it at our health food store. |
