So it has been just over a week of my dogs on their new diet of human grade meats, veggies, fruits, nuts and various other ingredients.  They are doing most excellent on it and thoroughly enjoying it.  Remember that this is all raw here, nothing cooked, the way it should be. 

This morning I fed them raw hamburger with and egg and some alfalfa and kelp powder and a side of chicken thigh.  Normally I mix a bit of pulped veggies and fruits but didn't this morning.  My experience has been good.  I thought it might be a bit inconvenient but it hasn't now that I've got the hang of it.  It takes me between 3-5 minutes to mix it up in their dish. 

So an important thing to remember is variety is the key.  I'm feeding various kinds of meats with hamburger being the main meat most days.  Lots of different veggies and fruits pulped and usually an egg and some virgin olive oil tossed in for good measure.  I'm going to look into picking up some other types of oils that are good for them. 

Good day to everyone and happy feedings.

Just another demonstration on how easy it is to prepare your dogs meals using a diet consisting of raw foods and how enjoyable it is to them.

Just another video showing how easy it is to prepare and feed my dogs a raw diet.

So I've decided to post the video I promised yesterday.  Forgive the quality but half my face is out of the video at times, of course the focus is to be mainly on the food and I did get that for the most part. :)

The video I said I would upload did not turn out well.  I had the camera too close so I am going to try and record a new one tomorrow morning and post it.

So today is the day I start my dogs on their new diet.  I will be uploading a video of myself preparing the meal so everyone can get an Idea of what I'm doing.  I'll upload this today after work.  I also am going to make a video where I discuss more in depth what and why I'm going to a more natural diet, talk about a couple books and anything else pertaining to their diet.

So I think I have one more days worth of dry food to use.  I've been out shopping this weekend and purchased a bunch of food for my dogs new, raw diet.  I will post the details and the cost this week sometime for those interested. I'm just going to dive in and get my feet wet.

So I groomed a dog yesterday that was extremely matted and decided to post a video of it.  This video is an example of why it is so important to get our dogs groomed regularly in order to keep them healthy.  Dogs in this condition can develop serious skin problems.  I've even seen a dog who came to us and was infested with maggots between the matting of the coat and the skin.  It was not a pretty site.  Click here or click on the Video tab up top and scroll down to the video called 'A Dog in Need'.
