Ah now i understand Ogdogg, you want to give them all the water they need 24 houres before weighing them. Good solution which i think everyone agrees on here.

One thing. If i remember right from raw feeding boards; adding water to raw food makes it pass through the stumic faster which will leave less time for the nutrients to be incorporated into the body. What's you guys opinion on that?

Frosty, I think 1 oz a lb is allot of water for a dog who's being fed raw. Let's say im training a 46 lb dog. You're adding 1,36 liter water to the food?

Jack, i guess you can test it with a dog being worked. adding a certain value of water for one week, pull his skin. Decrease it by 100 ml the next week, check again?


ps: one more question. Do you guys keep feeding raw the days after a hunt. Or would some cooked rice and cooked chicken a few times a day be better on their stumic.
