What kibble would people reccomend for pups?

[roybo 2,873]

Braver man than me,taking 2 pups in at once. Especially being your first.

A mix of red meat and chicken will do them good and if it will eat it a bit of pasta and veg....mines the pickiest eater though so makes it hard work. As regards to kibble ,the best is the one they will eat and enjoy,but try and get one where meat is the top ingredient ,as many use maize or wheat husk etc

Lamb the fattier the better good grub for pups, quality minced beef with plenty of fat added ideal too, chicken not the best by a long shot although fed along with other better meats is good for them, chicken wings ideal for pups too chew on keeps them amused and cost took all

Fed mine over 60 years on chicken its a top source of protein. calcium pottasium and fat . fatty lamb puts stodge on them and pups find it hard to digest to much fat at one go it is mainly to create heat and to trigger the pancreas to produce higher volumes of insulin to help digest food better. Way back when the racing lads fed lean beef and horse meat not a lot of fat in them. come the cold weather or if a hard few days running was due they would add one or two spoons of beef dripping. Everyone hasprefered methods but if you look at a lot of the young dogs that suffer serios injury a lot can be contributed to unbalanced diet some are pure accidents but a lot can be traced back to rearing..

What do you supplement the chicken with desert-bred?

 

And what percentage of the diet roughly is chicken?

 

No ulterior motive. Just curious.

Desertbreds missus feeds the dogs lol and they eat real well too always look good on it too, ? We all have our own ways I've stuck too same method year in year out same reading pups n saplings works for me ?

[arcticgun 4,548]

whatever diet you use I think the main priorities are quality variety balance and most important consistency given all them your pup should thrive

 

Regarding two pups at same time I e often found it helps too keep two on together they do t get lonely and too dependent on you, always someone too play with n keep warm with always found it a plus meself just dont put too pressure on yourself or the pups if problems arise work on them seperately too sort issues best of luck pal

As Arctic says my Mrs has been known to make big pans of Chicken or Lamb curry for the dogs and I have been given fish finger sandwiches or egg and chips it all depends what I happen to have f****d up that day. LOL 75/80% of the diet is chicken raw ,Brown rice and raw veg making up the balance .Twice a week 1/2 tin tomatoes and pilchards in oil or tuna in oil. Chopped apple and thistles or dandilion leaves once a week when available. Pups and saplings slightly different but all include chicken in the diet. My dog prefers the wifes curry but hes just a big greedy c**t 28 tts and 30kg.

Plenty all the meats offal bone chicken etc variety good kibble meat based seems ta do a good job remember a pot lamper a different type than mostly runners and do well on mostly ought.atb bunnys.

Forget the rice and boiling or cooking stuff up for it mate. Feed it raw. Not telling you what to do just a suggestion save u messing around. Try stick to what it likes if it is picky don't pander to him just lift his grub after five minutes. Cracking pup Atb with your first dog. You get back what you put in

What raw meat would you recommend? Twice daily?

. Chicken a great flesh for starting good stabiliser for the gut wings my favourite for Welps .atbbunnys.
