Nearly A Year Now

To many people get drawn into this "diet" debate of what's good and what's not IMO? If she's eating Butcher's then stick with it,she will do grand on it,be better than chopping & changing her diet that's a fact! Some of the best working lurchers I've ever seen were fed nothing flashy & I mean dogs that were run harder than 99.9% of dogs in the land & they took no harm..my brother owned such a dog,it got fed a handful of kibble,a few slices of bread & 1/2 of one of them sloppy brawn sausage type things,in it's 18 best nights lamping albeit obviously not consecutive the dog caught over 400 hares,yeah that's the truth,if your dogs eating something trust me it's better than eating nothing!! Good luck buddy & I'm sure your pooch will do just grand

I remember some of the lads I used to ratch about with back in the day allways fed school dinners. Used to go to the pigswill bins at school with a washing up bowl and fill it, there dogs allways did well back then on the longlugs

dog appears to look ok tb25. if shes managing a good daily exercise routine with you and is recovering just fine then shes getting enough goodness from what little shes eating.

[tb25 4,627]

Plenty of exersize mate...plenty of chasing ..bushing with the terriers and most days a good run were she has to put real effort in to a run..plus bike work witch I mite stop till am happy with her weight... She's a happy mutt.I could kill her at times though..lol..

Yep she looks to be that typical saluki shape ... I realy wouldn't worry now I have seen pictures of her ... Just feed her what she likes as she is obviously a fussy eater ......
