I have the salmon oil, vitamin e and I got some pumpkin. I read in the MacDonald book that organ meat, particularly liver, would aid in getting the bowels moving so I was going to add a couple of oz.'s to his first meal today. BTW my female is doing great on the raw diet. I have balanced her out more. Please critique what I am doing and thanks again for all of the great info.
Chuck, it sounds like you have all your ingredients ready – it’s just a matter of putting them together.
Since your dogs are already eating chicken backs, I would just mix some beef hearts (a few ounces each), a little liver (about 1 oz. each to start), and some veggie glop with the backs. I’m assuming your veggie glop contains salmon oil, Vitamin E (yes, 400 IU is fine) and yogurt.
That is a complete, well-balanced, and very nutritious meal for both dogs.
Congratulations on feeding raw, and props for asking all the right questions.
Good luck! I am also just starting my lab, Bella, on raw, so I can identify with the uneasy feelings.
I just wanted to mention that there is a specific forum for raw feeding further down the main index. Within you can read for hours about different raw feeding issues. I think there are about 50 pages of topics to look through and there are many nuggets of knowledge in there. These folks try to help as best they can, and it shows!
