Up to 3-4m we used to put everything through a mincer/blender: raw meat, cooked meat, blood and fat, stock, dog biccies, eggs, bread, veg peelings, unused veg. After 4m we just mix it all up for him in a bowl. Might not work for everyone but works for us.

I use Beta Puppy it's 29% protein mixed with meat. They do great on it.

Alright mate hills science plan does all sorts of different dry mix. Hav a look on the hyperdrug website. How olds the pup? Science plan tell you wich grub to feed for the age of the dog. And. Liver will be fine for the pup. I wud use something with limited protien for a growing pup as to much causes growth spurts wich results in weak bones.

Skinners is an exceelnt food i used duck and rice or salmon and rice but thinking off going to chudleys just because the pup done well on it.Science plan is a waste of money to be honest really expensive and no better than any other really.I also liked dr johns platinum cos its got green lipped mussel in it and a few other things to keep joint in good shape

Just because beta puppy got high protein don't mean nowt mate. Fact.. growth spurts in young can cause weak joints, certain breeds suffer especialy so they benefit from being fed a specific diet... Though a lot of people do use beta pupy so that speaks for its self. From my own experience, to much protein a pups diet gives them the squirts constantly especialy when fed along with raw meat wich has everything a dog needs. Any dry mix dog food is for convenience.

That's what I was saying when I said a lot of people use and recomend it so speaks for its self. That is one thing a pup of myn went through a stage of doing.(eating own shat) loads reasons for it what were you going off whn you mentioned it mate?

Liver is great for adult dogs, full of iron and protein, but to much can give dogs the shits. Most pups can't keep raw liver down, and throw it up, so if you're feeding a pup liver, boil it and only give small amounts.

 

Cheers.
