MikeyMJL 128 Posted November 28, 2014 Report Share Posted November 28, 2014 Hi lads/lasses Ive got a problem with my non-working staff. He's been fed on raw since I got him and I always provide a variety for him but lately he's eating other dogs shit when I let him off the lead anywhere other dogs have been. It's getting on my nerves now because its always clear that the shit he eats has come from commercial pet food, so he must be missing something but f**k knows what! Has anybody got any idea what he could be missing? He gets a cracking diet for a pot licker but obviously there is something wrong with his feed. Cheers Mike Quote Link to post Share on other sites

One day I was watching ceaser Milan with a dog doin the very same he say's the dog is low in vitamins an is there for eating his own an others because he is tryin to regain any lost vitamins in the shit by eating it . His answer was try the dog with some different fruits an he should eat which ever carry.s the needed vitamins. . . . . Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MikeyMJL 128 Posted November 28, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2014 Interesting about the rock sulphur, I put 2 caps of ACV in his water every day, would the rock sulphur react with the ACV? Cheers delboy, I used to put a bit of blended veg into his food but his crap was stinking and it seemed to me like it wasn't being digested so I haven't bothered for ages. I do give him half a multi vitamin and mineral tablet a day though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I have used it a fair few times and I have suggested to quite a few people on here and other sites and its worked for most of them also .......No I never used it , does it add something , I never had a dog that ate shite , all their diets have varied from raw to complete to scraps , a lot of the dogs around the house when I was young would only have eaten scraps but others everything from sheep stomachs to sheep heads, growing up we had little enough to eat let alone the dogs I'm sure most of them were missing something in their diet but have never come across one that ate shite , From that standpoint I dont assume that its a dietary issue for me it's another element in the dogs environment that not being fulfilled, a lot of the dogs I've come across in recent years have behaviour problems and also shite eaters , great diets as mad as a bag of monkeys and completely overstimulated with no avenue to express themselves in a natural doggy fashion , Edited November 28, 2014 by Casso Quote Link to post Share on other sites
