Kelly Pint Webboard User Reg: 09-25-2005 Posts: 11 Loc: Iowa Offline	We have turkey necks, chicken hindquarters, beef heart, beef liver, and mackerel. Will this be enough variety? On occasion he'll get pork, squirrel, rabbit, and venison, but it won't be a regular basis. We are intending to feed 1 cup of Evo in conjunction with 1.5lbs of raw meat - approx. 60%RMB, 35% muscle, and 5% organ meat and/or veggies. We are supplementing Vitamin E and fish oil. Should this be sufficient? He is a 13mo, male, neutered, 100lb G.S.D. He is thin, but not gaunt. I'd like him to maintain his current weight. He is built very big. Activity: Obedience Training with me, one good long walk with me, and backyard playing and running. He's outside 2-3 hours per day although he is a housedog. Right now he is spending a LOT of time in the kennel because he is being potty trained. Thank you so much for any help, suggestions, and/or encouragement! Blessings, Kelly Blessed Mama to Eight

You can feed veggies in addition to the meat. You will have to feed "by feel." If he is getting too heavy (through the ribs), decrease the amount of food, and vice versa. You're definitely on the right track. Good luck! Jan As you think, so shall you be.

If you're going to feed raw and kibble, then feed each on separate days - not together. PetIDtag.com Keep ID on your pet! Profits go to rescues in NC
