a suppose its up to the individual how theyu rear there welps ,and they blook fine and will do . But minced flesh goes hell of alot further in a pup ,than any cereal and welps flesh fed are far superior thasn cereal fed fact, if one feels the need to bulk out mince etc brown bread will do the job ,and gaz that little spot where the fishes swim looks very familiar lol atb bunnya.

Lordy, fella put a pic up celebrating his pups and every holier than thou expert on puppy rearing see an opportunity to blow their own trumpet . Recon he was using Weetabix as an introduction to solids rather than a permanent diet so can’t see what the fuss was about .

 

 

 

But since we have so many experts I’ve one question for all you dieticians what did you feed your babies, human, for their first few meals ???????

 

 

 

 

Just a quick reminder before you answer the digestive abilities of humans and dogs are very similar, dogs aren’t wolves any more than we are cave men .Dogs aren’t true carnivores like say a cat, basically they are adapted to a mixed diet including starches

Axelsson E. et al, The genomic signature of dog domestication reveals adaptation to a starch-rich diet, Nature, 2013 Jan 23, doi: 10.1038/nature11837, Science for Life Laboratory, Department of Medical Biochemistry and Microbiology, Uppsala University, 75237 Uppsala, Sweden

The idea of carnivores etc is a man made label system that doesn’t fit to well to reality. Think more of a continuum with obligate carnivore like cats at one end and ruminants like cows at the other. Most things fall somewhere between these two extremes, monogastrics. Even then they are not fixed at their place but able to move along the line to deal with variable food availability. Consider an Inuit living on a meat based diet in the Artic-circle compared to an arable farmer group such as the Aztecs, both are humans yet one could be called a carnivore and one a herbivore but in truth neither label fits their digestive, evolutionary abilities does it? Wolves had similar abilities which is why they made such a good partnership with ourselves in the first place. Then our pressure on their evolution has enhanced this to bring them ever closer to ourselves. The result dogs are now able to digest and do well on a very catholic diet, carbs won’t be passed through but digested and form a valuable part of balanced diet. So if someone wants to give their pups some cereal seems just fine to me.

I don't see any fuss Sandy mere? Just a few posts saying what they think r.e. feeding wetabix.then 6 pages of tit for tat Because someone dare mention it .It seemed to me if you mention something on any thread these days if it goes against the grain (pardon the pun) some get jumped on depending who you are.

the gafer replied ill do as I want they are my pups ,and he was wished all the best,the rest has been an argument that crops up ,every time certain lads post on the same thread.

once again gafer best of luck with the pups

[the big chief 3,099]

I think its run its Corse we know peoples views an the matter no point in arguing no longer

[roybo 2,873]

I agree gafer

HOWEVER dogs need meat to survive and flourish ... They couldn't live in the wild on grains and fruits alone ... Also if I put a bowl of cereal on the floor next to a bowl of fresh meat and led a hundred dogs one at a time to the bowls I know what I would put my money on to be the empty bowl every time ..........

He WAS going to introduce meat at a later stage.

 

HOWEVER thousands of dogs in the UK survive, flourish, thrive and compete at various tasks which have never seen meat in their lives.

 

You know my thoughts on feeding but it's just my preference. Let's not get blind to the reality that dogs do just fine on dry food, cereals, starchy diets. And they do thrive.

Well my dogs 'Vegan' Just like me, I don't know what you're all getting so upset about
