Elvis Pawsly- The king.     Barked: Mon May 20, '13 10:02am PST  yeah, I am working the organs in slowly while keeping an eye on their ph to make sure they can handle them. Every dog is different so who knows, one or both may be able to handle Organs. Although Ozzy is having an issue with Low Ph ( high Ph is usually the problem) So I have to figure out how to lower that. A high Ph could be indication of UTI I am trying to avoid the trip to the vet...Not looking forward to the "raw is bad for you dog" speech. Ozzys normal is 7.0 which is perfect but today reading was 7.5 Elvis had a low PH the other day but is back to normal, so he might be able to work it out on his own. I am going to test him for the next 3 days and see how it goes. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Elvis Pawsly- The king.     Barked: Fri May 17, '13 10:34pm PST  Well Maxwell I think you will be pleased...I have started a complete raw diet Today was day 2 ! I have tried it before and it didn't work out...But now I have done more research...BUT what about organs? I know Dalmatian can't handle the purines in liver or organs...so is there vitamins I can give instead? I am giving a heart ( I know, considered a muscle meat, but better than nothing) to see how they do and I will try chicken liver if I can find some later on. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Elvis Pawsly- The king.     Barked: Wed Apr 24, '13 4:39pm PST  Yeah I could do that but of rather just test with strips, I only do it once a week so not that bad I'm not sure if they have the gene. They are poorly bred so I like to take extra precaution with them I try my best with them ! I have vet apt tomorrow for both dogs so I am going to see what vet says about everything too my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Elvis Pawsly- The king.     Barked: Wed Apr 24, '13 9:50am PST  I am making a new batch tonight, just to make sure I have enough, even so it lasted 5 days so not bad with this batch I am going to add hamburger along with the chicken. I not saying they arent allowed high purine food at all, just have to be caredul. tonight recipe will be 2 pounds chicken, 2 pounds hamburger, 1 pound veggies. 1 cup lentils. then about 3 sweet potatoes and 4 regular potatoes. also add 1 green squash to the mix and some fish oil . Might try adding some liver too to see how they do. I keep an eye on their ph levels myself ( yes i'm the crazy lady in the yard holding a stick under her dogs pee flow) so i know if they purines are too high for them or not. That thread is it the 21 easy steps? is that the correct thread? And the food did smell good cooking, I even had a taste - wasn't too bad I figure I add eggs and 1 spoonful of canned dog food and then low sodium chicken broth to their bowls they will be fine without the herbs and spices They will be weighing 55-60 pounds at adult weight So I'll cut them back to 2 1/2 cups. That should be about right. But I weigh them weekly ( using wii fit so not sure how accurate) so I'll keep track on their weight and adjust they food accordingly. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Elvis Pawsly- The king.     Barked: Tue Apr 23, '13 10:46pm PST  do you think 3 cups is enough for them? Should I increase this once they reach 40 lbs? I'm not sure how it is with the feeding guidelines. I was feeding them about 3 1/2 c kibble. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Elvis Pawsly- The king.     Barked: Sun Apr 21, '13 9:04pm PST  okay thanks And i did another batch last night, I did 3 pounds of organic chicken 1 pound organic veggies and 1 1/2 cup of the lentils then about 2 sweet potatoes and 4 organic white potatoes. So It is a little more meat than the last batch I'm sure their bodies will let me know if they are lacking anything, right? I also added some ground flax seeds on top of their food my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Elvis Pawsly- The king.     Barked: Sun Apr 21, '13 5:32pm PST  Oh! And I stopped with those seasonings just to be safe only thing they got was sea salt. They get 4000 mg salmon oil I did supplements tonight and this is what I gave: zinc- 50 mg B complex- 1 pill didn't say mg for each pill tho. E- 400 I.u calcium - 600 mg does that sound about right? Elvis is 45 lbs and 0zzy is 40 lbs my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Elvis Pawsly- The king.     Barked: Fri Apr 19, '13 10:11pm PST  I'm on the cell so will give better response tomorrow once I am on computer. My two can't have organ meats and hamburger only once awhile, cooked up a batch using chicken today. I tweaked the recipe a little. I pit 1 pound chicken 1 pound veggies. 2 cup sweet potato and about 4 red potatoes. And only 1 cup lentils. Then only a little fresh sea salt and sage for seasons. They are getting 3 cups each for now but will be adjusting proportions to their needs my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Elvis Pawsly- The king.     Barked: Thu Apr 18, '13 9:31pm PST  I am looking for grain free home cooked recipes? This is what I currently am currently feeding my two: 1.5 lb ground or finely chopped chicken - I used 1 pound hamburger instead. 2 cups sweet potato - will be using 3 cups next time. 2 cups frozen chopped or fresh vegetables - I used carrots, green beans and squash. 2 cups cooked lentils - Will be using 1 cup next time 1 cup cottage cheese; 1/8 cup olive oil; 1/8 cup basil - dry or fresh chopped; 1/8 cup rosemary - dry or fresh chopped; 1/2 cup dried parsley or fresh chopped; 1/8 cup turmeric; 1/8 cup sage They seem to really love it ! Today was the first day and they haven't had any digested problems with it, poop was all solid. I suggest if you ise this recipe to cut down on the Lintels and add more carbs, I am choosing to add more sweet potatoes my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]
