You don't want to do it, yet, but at a point in time, you will be adding a small amount of veggies to your raw feeding. Having a small (10lb) dog, I buy baby food. It's cheap and convenient and there is such a small amount to use that it comes in just the right container. Also, there probably aren't pumpkins in the stores or farmer's market right now, but when available (I always use the left over Jack-o-lanterns from Halloween because I so hate to waste.) it's easy to bake scrape into a baggie to freeze.

Nora Ferrell Webboard User Reg: 02-10-2008 Posts: 727 Loc: Kentucky Offline	Quote: Tamara Mey those photos are too cute! I love Corgis (so funny how they have no tails!) Poor Rambo had some bad poop today, first he was constipated and his poo was super dry, teeny tiny and crumbly. Then after dinner he had a normal looking log but then suddenly very watery pudding (just a little). Weird since breakfast and dinner were identical combos with the same bone/muscle meat ratio. Hoping smaller meals tomorrow will be the answer?? Absolutely no luck finding canned pumpkin at the stores. Hang in there, Tamara. When I switched mine, I experienced some of those same problems and for a while, actually. You will one day (soon) get to the point that you will know how much meat/bone to give. Another thing that helped me was to keep a daily log of food given, poop, times, etc.

You have just joined the GGPW, or Great Group of Poop Watchers. We've had links to photos of poop here for raw diet diagnosis.
