Be careful some HUMAN foods are NOT good for dogs!!! such as grapes or raisins(dangerous),chocolate(dangerous),macadamia nuts(dangerous),onions (in some dogs cause stomach upset and so can garlic)etc do a search online and find what foods are dangerous and be sure not to throw them in your dogs food!!!

secondly — use the best quality food for your dog (dry or canned) not just cheap grocery store food premium foods offer better absorption of nutrients…less poop cause more is being utilized by the dog…you will also feed less of a better quality dog food…

DO NOT GIVE COOKED BONES TO DOGS!! they can cause MAJOR harm!! only raw bones (with meat still on them) and watch your dog !!! chicken bones can be tricky so best to avoid them — shank bones can still splinter (the dry ones from a store or cooked ones)Knuckles are best – they are soft won’t splinter and when dogs scrap them they get calcium from them…but again use cation too much can cause constipation and I am sure ya know that be quite uncomfortable… small shank bones from fillets might be too small for a major bone chewer also even if raw…

so do some research before doing any of this so you make an informed decision about what your feeding your dog please!!

look for these diets :

homemade dog food

RAW FOOD dog diet

BARF diet for dogs

Dr Picairn also has a book (ya can find online ) that discusses supplementing your dogs food with “real food” or feeding homemade sdog food (with recipes)…a good read
