Thank you both for your encouragement. I have been feeding primarily raw for over 5 years, but never a puppy from the get go. I guess I just had a moment of weakness. There is a great asian market here that has all sorts of duck parts I will try that for sure. I also plan on getting some rabbit as it's a favorite of my other dogs. Her poop is right in the middle, usually easy enough to pass but firm and not soft.
I need to get motivated again, after recently learning I was pregnant, having a not so great first trimester, and three dogs and three cats to chase after, my attention to variety in the dogs diets has suffered a bit, hopefully I can get that back to normal.
I think she is just going to be a bigger dog than the rest and I need to stop comparing her to the others.
Again, thank you for the encouragement and compliments, it's so nice to have a resource where the responses are timely and people don't climb all over you for not feeding 'scientifically balanced kibble'

.... One of my favorite bone-in items is duck necks.
I'd love to find that.
You know what I find occasionally? Something cheap called "lamb flaps." Mostly, lamb is not at all cheap, so I grab it up.
It's VERY fatty, so I added them in gradually and did not make them a chief main dish. But what a great cheap way to get a new protein into the diet on the cheap, and full of all these smaller-type bones.
I'm not sure exactly what it is. Looks like something trimmed off when they make lamb ribs or something like that. Not leg-type bones. More like small rib bones.
I'm not a puppy expert at all, but do other folks think that those legs presage a dog who is just gonna be tall?

Or maybe they all have a colt-period like that?
My hounds both went through colt-period like that, all legs and hips!
she looks perfect to me and like she will be a nicely built dog when she is done growing.
