arcticgun 4,548 Posted May 21, 2013 Report Share Posted May 21, 2013 (edited) get a real good quality puppy dry feed such as beta, gain , eukanuba, royal canin, feed as per guidelines on bag, maybe reduce amounts a little and add quality raw beef mince,chicken, etc adds a little variety and is tasty, also gives the option to move onto raw feeding etc , avoid cheap dry fods , the better stuff more expensive but you use less and it does the job properly, they only young once and they not pets and need every available thing they can get into em when they young so they stay and grow strong Edited May 21, 2013 by arcticgun 4 Quote Link to post

Country Joe 1,411 Posted May 22, 2013 Report Share Posted May 22, 2013 nice wee pup , how is it bred? I fed my last dog mainly raw, but he was very picky, this pup i have just kept him to complete, he is on Gain greyhound Puppy and Sapling four times a day, soaked in Goat milk, up to now very happy with it, he is eating well, clearing his bowl at every feed, putting on good growth, and has a nice shiny coat, will probably change to raw when he is older, but will stick to the Gain for the time being.

wardle65 6 Posted May 22, 2013 Report Share Posted May 22, 2013 interesting ...never realy fed any RAW apart from bone treats now and again just used a mixer with chappy with the odd change, had a prob with Chum and some of the moreexpensive tin food found they were to rich and had sloppy problems ....
