Try phycox tabs. They are all natural and work wonders for hip & joint stuff.

She has literally turned into a puppy again. Heather can attest to the change in her attitude - she stayed at my house the last week Sadie ate kibble. And, was at my house on Saturday. Same dog, TOTALLY different attitude. She is really now acting like a puppy, all excited and giddy :lol: |

So, where are you guys getting the info to get started on a raw diet? How do you introduce it, what kinds of foods do my dogs need, etc?

Wanted to post an update real quick for cat owners.
I broke down and let my wife get a kitty. In an effort to make her part of the pack from our dog's POV we feed her in the same room and same time as the dogs. I quickly learned that she much prefers raw meat over kitty kibble....because she kept getting in their food bowl. So from then on we just feed her raw like the doggies. I slice some meat off the dogs chicken or whatever and she eats it down. No bone though. Anyway, seems to be working well so far. |
I can understand raw red meat, but I would be concerned about the dog getting sick eating raw fish that was not prepared correctly and raw chicken. Why not just feed them raw red meats? And is alot of fat a problem?
How does cooked meats compare to raw? |

Red meat is $2+ lb vs. chicken at $.59 a lb. so chicken is the obvious choice to make up the bulk of their protein. As the bones are part of their diet and cooked bones are dangerous to dogs feeding cooked is not an option. I do buy a big bag of quarters every week, boil that and strip the meat for a quick meal that isn't messy when I'm in a rush. Its more of a back up meal. A lot of fat is not a problem because they are not eating carbs, only fat and protein. Whole chickens have a good fat/protein ration. In the time that I've been doing this I've seen my dogs digestive problems (throwing up, diarrhea, farts) virtually disappear. They have not been sick at all in the last 6 months. |

I completely attribute a raw food diet to this. She gets yogurt, liver, eggs and banana/celery/peppers in the morning - chicken in the evening. Thanks Josh. Really. TRULY. Sadie thanks you.... I'd take a picture, but she's afraid of cameras [they steal your soul...] :lol: |
These meals sound like mine. LOL...minus the raw meat part, though I eat 12 raw eggs a day.
How do you give the dog raw eggs? Mix is up with other stuff? |
It's an involved process... crack egg in bowl - give bowl to dog. :) She LOVES eggs. No, LOVE love LOVE LoVEs eggs.
