Your wish is my command, whats great is that nature provides food of all different sizes. I always seek out the different rmbs for each of my dogs. I also cut very large things (such as a whole breast of lamb with ribs) into smaller bits. Another thing you can do is take an rmb out, let the dog have a good go at it and then put the rest in the fridge as they are good for 3 days after thawing.

Go Morgan, great pictures!

Ok, here's another thing I didn't think about before seeing the pics. What do you use to clean their hair after they've gotten raw meat on it? Just a wet washcloth or some type of soap? Thanks!

mminichan · 10-17-2007, 05:58 AM

Thanks for the pictures lara2913 and kalina82!! so, you let your furbaby finish one whole drumstick in one meal? How long does it nromally take for them to finish it? Do they also eat the bone?

7TimesBlessed · 10-17-2007, 06:27 AM

Just a washcloth with warm water.

Yes all of it, the bone is very important. Time wise it depends on the size of the drumstick, that particular dog and how long they have been eating raw. It took Indy 2 hours to eat her first one, now she takes about 30 minutes usually. Benjamin and Malachi are a bit faster.

I love the pics, they're cracking me up. The drumsticks are as big as the dogs (and kitty!). Too funny!

Great pics...thanks. I fed teddy chicken this morn in the kitchen and thought he ate it all but when I got home I took him out of his x-pen and noticed his pee pad was folded over and when I straightened it up I found chicken folded in there. I have no Idea how it got there. I'm still trying to figure it out. His x-pen is in a different room.

Perhaps he escaped to get a little snack

Maybe one of your bigger dogs managed to drop it in there?

kitt · 10-17-2007, 06:27 PM

I don't think my bigger dogs are that generous, lol. I was wondering if it's ok to feed Teddy 3 or maybe 4 times a day with the raw food diet? He hasn't gained enough weight the past 5 or 6 weeks and I know it's not because of the raw food because I just started him on 5 days ago. And now with the raw food diet it takes him a lot more time and sometimes I have to take it and put it back in the fridge so I can leave for work. I'm afraid he may not be getting enough with just two feedings a day.

emilyann · 10-17-2007, 06:37 PM

At what age should you start the raw food if you want to?

kitt · 10-17-2007, 06:40 PM

Any age as long as there are no compromising health issues.
