i think its white bread mate as its got too much wheat in it but i could be wrong

yes matee your wrong

 

white bread has too much starch in it to give to dogs

[Beddy-Poacher 30]

2 cups dry meal

2 slice brown bread

1 raw egg

1/4 pint of milk in the morning not fed when taken out obviously

 

 

3 cups dry meal soaked in boiling water and left to cool

4 slice brown bread

half a big tin of meat

handfull raw mince

and some electrolite at night

 

this is what i feed any my lurchers on and amounts will vary in size of dog but these are what i feed a dog between 25/27 inch

Goats milk is better for dogs than cows milk mate, They digest it easier

aye and never piss into the wind

and always check upstream before you take a drink from it haha you never know if there a dead sheep in it

haha that happened to my cousin one day we were out

hahaha he must have swallowed about half a pint of water and 20 yards further up there was a dirty big dead ewe in the burn :sick: :sick:

Just tip folks, if you poor hot water onto the complete dog food to let it soak, you will take out most of the goodness from it.

Only luke warm or just luke, not boiling!

I feed red Mills Racer mainly, along with rabbits and butchers off cuts. Was feeding Gain, but gone back to red mills, as they have improved their formula and my dogs look well on it.

I think Gain has gone down hill of late!

[riohog 5,714]

just a thought about feeding .. man has kept dogs for millenia , for hunting and guarding , if man didnt eat ,nor did his dog ...................wonder which are /were the best dogs .. the well fed ones of today ..or the dogs of old , that if they didnt feed there master ,they didnt eat themselves?!

[optimus 447]

ANY WORKING DOG REQUIRES DECENT FOOD. ESPECIALLY IN THE WINTER WHEN ENERGY REQUIREMENTS THROUGH RUNNING & BODY HEAT WITH THE COLD PUT MORE STRAIN ON YOUR DOG. HOWEVER MOST DOGS AS WITH PEOPLE ARE DIFFERENT. WHAT MAKES 1 DOG FAT MAY KEEP ANOTHER THIN. IVE SEEN FEN DOGS RAN ON A NORMAL COMPLETE MEAL RUN WELL & OTHER DOGS THAT NEEDED A BETTER DIET TO MAINTAIN THEMSELVES. HOWEVER SCIENTIFIC YOU BECOME ON YOUR DOGS DIET THERE IS AN OLD SAYING "you cant put in what God has left out" & YOU CANT MAKE A POOR DOG IN TO A GOOD ONE IF THE ABILITY SIMPLY ISNT THERE

ANY FARMING SUPPLIERS THAT SELLS BAGS OF POWDERED CALFS MILK WILL SELL GOATS MILK ALSO. HOWEVER GOATS MILK IS MORE EXPENSIVE AS IT CONTAINS BETTER NUTRITION PER WEIGHT THAN CALFS MILK DOES. I ONLY USED IT WHEN WEANING PUPS ON TO A MORE SOLID DIET AROUND 3WKS OLD , BOTH GOATS & CALFS MILK HAD A LOVELY SWEET SMELL WHEN MIXED WITH WARM WATER & I SOAKED A DECENT COMPLETE MEAL IN IT GRADUALLY MAKING IT FIRMER AS THE PUPS GOT OLDER. GREYHOUND MEN HAVE LONG GAVE THEIR DOGS A BREAKFAST WITH WARM MILK
