Guest Ditch_Shitter Posted March 19, 2007 Report Share Posted March 19, 2007 " RAW AND DRY MIXED, can this be bad for your dog? " Catagorically Yes, I'd say, mate. But take that greasy, carcinogenic waste product crap out of the equation, stick with the raw flesh and bone? He'll be onto a winner Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest MOLLY Posted March 19, 2007 Report Share Posted March 19, 2007 Mine get raw and complete mixed. Always fed raw only, mashed raw veg, oil and bran. But one of them especially looked terrible on it. The main portion is raw with a small amount of complete, and they get lamb bones, whole rabbits, almost daily. They have never look or acted as fit as they do now. You have to see what is best for your dog.....100% raw is of course the most natural and healthiest diet you can give. MOLL.

mole trapper 1,693 Posted March 19, 2007 Report Share Posted March 19, 2007 completley agree with you there Molly, my dogs are positivley shining on a simular diet. :thumbs-up:Forgot to mention though, the dry food, i dont use cheap and nasty just to fill them up, i use Autarky summer, which is 100% natural no colourings or any other crap, its expensive but i dont care, my dogs are worth it.

Guest MOLLY Posted March 19, 2007 Report Share Posted March 19, 2007 Never hear of Autarky summer Moley, ill look into it. But i agree the more expensive brands seem to be alot better. I use Eukanuba performance. MOLL. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Lurcherbitch Posted March 19, 2007 Report Share Posted March 19, 2007 My dogs fart n shit a lot on autarky a lot less when i feed IAMS. Altough they are mainly on raw they do get dry occasionaly. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I feed all 4 , mixed with red mills tracker, and mine do great on it, plus a hide chew daily for their gnashers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

tote 854 Posted March 19, 2007 Report Share Posted March 19, 2007 Should be able to get it at a greyhound track,there are a few in the north east. I feed Gain greyhound with meat,it's similair to red mills. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mole trapper 1,693 Posted March 19, 2007 Report Share Posted March 19, 2007 Molly the reason i started using the Autarky was that my older bitch started to have kind of head shaking fits after food, turned out she was suffering from post hipatic shunt, may have spelt that wrong, but anyway was caused by me feeding her v- high amounts of protein because of the amount of work she does and her kidneys/liver could not cope, apparently some dogs get it, anyway spoke to Hancock about it, "whisper that bit" and he suggested that as it is totally organic etc, they have been on it about a year and a half now. Mix packs of raw minced tripe/chicken/rabbit etc, looking good on it and more importantly very rare fit type behaviour. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kay 3,709 Posted March 20, 2007 Report Share Posted March 20, 2007 My dog loves the minced tripe & chicken & it dont stink the kitchen out Quote Link to post Share on other sites
