there are lots of different fish out there. salmon, carp,, mackerel, talapia, etc. one of my dogs liked fish the other refused to eat any of it. fish isn't actually really common in the diet of the canine family though it can be good for them.

be careful with sardines. if they are in oil, can cause pancreatitis. if in water, many have a lot of salt.

with liver, I generally just give a tiny bit once or twice a week. the good thing about raw is that you don't have to be 100% precise on every single meal - balance over the course of a couple meals. If the dog eats a big meal on Monday, the eat a littel less on Tuesday. Liver is super...

it might be big enough if you can go grocery shopping several times a week. meat doesn't have a long fridge life

small quantities are never cost efficient. you can order in bulk and only have to do it every 6 months or so.

no the proportions are the same no matter the breed. just the total amount fed is smaller for smaller dogs. you want to feed 2-3% of the dogs ideal weight daily. So, for a 9lb dog with average metabolism, you would feed just under 2/10s of a lb daily or about 3 ounces. then you...

a tablespoon of pumpkin is just for fiber. it doesn't add anything to the diet itself and doesn't need to be "digested". it's good for a dog that is constipated or has diarrhea. the 80-10-10 really depends on the bones you are feeding. if you are feeding RMB with only a little meat on...

you are very unlikely to find a vet who will give any advice on a raw diet except to say "DON'T"!! they usually see the downside of incorrectly done raw diets. even ol'roy is a better food than an incorrect raw diet.

cottage cheese isn't a meal. dogs actually can't digest dairy. an egg can be a good add-on to a meal but, again, it isn't a meal. once a day at most for a dog that small no, don't measure in fluid ounces. you can buy frozen quail at the grocery store, it depends. rawdogranch.com is a...

food from at least 4 different animals. a typical weekly menu for my raw-fed dogs. Monday - chicken leg quarters, beef liver (tiny amount), venison Tuesday - turkey necks. beef heart Wed - elk chicken back Thusday ground lamb ribs. pork meat Friday chicken neck...

you need at least four varieties of protein in a raw diet.

no problem. you would not believe the number of people I talk with that think a raw diet for a dog = buying a pound of hamburger or a couple chicken breasts. one guy on a GSD group I am on has been feeding his dog nothing but hamburger and cooked rice for 8 months!

hiding it under things isn't going to help. and the more you look for him, the less likely that you are to even see him, let alone catch him. put the trap out in a place where it won't get rained on, put some dry food and a dish of water inside and leave it alone. check it once or twice a...

cats have an attitude as well. and will not always want to be hanging out with you, especially with petting and such. they tend to want to NOT hang out with people who want to hang out with them. People who ignore them or don't like cats tend to be cat magnets. Carmella does those bad...

please don't just buy a bunch of chicken breasts. 1 a raw diet MUST contain bones to be properly balanced. with cats, using a grinder would probably be the best option. you need at least 4 different protein sources for a raw diet. chicken, turkey, beef, lamb are some easily...

how long has the cage been out? animals, especially cats, tend to be very cage-shy. it can take a month of the cage being out before they will venture in. cats, even small kittens, are pretty good at fending for themselves and not as likely to be tempted by food
