Just to butt in, Diesel's fed Arden Grange Lamb & rice and loves it....Diesel's the first to suffer if he eats anything he shouldn't or in fact anything that's outside his normal diet but this is great, he even has it as his treats when we're out for being a good boy.


I was told raw marrowbone's good for them, is that true?? I really want to give him something to chew and really get his teeth in to - any recommendations?

Hiya

Sorry I've been away from the thread I started, but trying to get two kids and the OH off the damn computer is a mare! Thanks for all the responses

Wildmoor - Sheebs is 11 months and she's fed twice a day (whatever the manufacturers recommend split into two equal meals).

I think shes just going through the fussy teenage years, I tried the sardines trick and she even turned her nose up at that.........even though shes scoffed that in with her biccies before!

I'll let you all know how we get on...........I've bribed my son into getting Sheebs piccies off my phone.......so I'll post them soon.

In the meantime all advice gratefully received.

Sue & Sheebs x

Sheebs: Try her with some green tripe that normaly gets them eating.

Lynn: Try breast of lamb, he can eat it all including the bone with causing any damage to his teeth.

Hi Sue no, that type is bleached, go to a pet store and buy minced or chunks of green tripe.

Pets @ home sell that so smelly stinky green tripe................you need to defrost it in the microwave................and then heat it up for about 30 secs
