What is your opinion on using Honest Kitchen Preference in lieu of separate supplements? Also, do you think salmon oil offers an advantage over flaxseed oil?

Hi Cindy,

I really appreciate your website & articles. I just rec'd a couple of training videos from you and I can't wait to get started on the Michael Ellis Focused Heeling one. :-)

I have a raw diet question for you. I have been feeding my pup raw since she was about 5 months old and she is doing great (she's now 2 & a half).

I read Kymythy Schultze's diet, most (if not all) the articles on your site re: raw diets, and quite a few other articles and books in between. I am very confident in the diet I put together, but I have a couple of questions. I use The Honest Kitchen Preference instead of supplementing with alfalfa, kelp, & fresh pulped veggies. After comparing the cost & time of doing it myself, I decided Preference was the smart way for me to go. It has alfalfa, kelp and a great variety of veggies, and I don't have to mess around with it. It's all I use for the veggie part of the diet, which is about 15% of her total diet. What is your opinion on using Preference in lieu of separate supplements for alfalfa/kelp/fresh pulped veggies?

I am also curious about using salmon oil. I've been using flaxseed oil for a couple of reasons - one is that I use it too, and two, I just have the one 35lb dog. The wild salmon oil is rather expensive b/c it expires when I'm about half-way through the smallest (8oz) bottle. Do you think the salmon oil offers a significant advantage over the flaxseed?

Thanks for reading.

Thanks,
Becky
