What do you guys think about mixing boneless chicken, heart, liver, gizzards, and bone meal, and putting this all through the grinder and then adding the egg, yogurt and oil to it and serving it up that way?
I've never used bone meal, so if I were, how much would I add if wanting to use it for weaning purposes? It says 1 teaspoon, I would think that 2 teaspoons would be sufficient for 4-6 pups.
Ideas?
If you feed raw meat to pups, without bone, they stand a real good chance of getting ricketts.Originally Posted by No Quarter Kennel
Always use bone when you feed raw
Instead of starting another thread I thought I'd just continue on this one. Hopefully Jack and anyone else can help us out.
We are planning a possible breeding in the next few weeks. My partner and I have been debating the whelping process and how things change if done outdoors. He insists it can be done as successfully outdoors.
We are based in the Los Angeles area. The weather as you may know or hear of is quite amazing, but it does get somewhat chilly at night.
Do you think it is a good option to use above ground pen and wooden dog house? Would you suggest or recommend another heat source? If so, what type would be ideal and how would you set it up?
You will not need another heat source at all. But you very much will need a shade source to protect from the direct sunlight
Keep in mind, if you breed now you won't have the pups till the end of June, so it will be HOT not cold.
You have got to make sure whatever roofing is at least 3' higher than the pups, and that the sun cannot shine directly on the house.
If the mama's in there, there will be no worries about cold at night.
Good luck,
Jack
