Gravy?
A friend of mine recommended putting gravy in with my dog's dry food to make it more appetising but I'm worried about the amount of salt that's in gravy :S any suggestions?

Too much choice!
why are there so many different brands to choose from for dog food, everyone recommends something different, but which is honestly the best? I want the best value for money that won't break the bank but still be something that my dog loves to eat and will keep him healthy

Northern Tools Meat Grinder.
I got my NT meat grinder today, was on sale at Amazon.com for 79.00, which is a great price. I wanted it to grind chicken wings and maybe possibly pork riblets. The Riblets were a bit tough to get through and the chicken wings went through like butter. It's a bit loud but not deafening. I think...

Some new Dahlia videos
Dahlia and I took a break from trialing this year for the most part. She was struggling with distraction and after being attacked by another dog, she started to get nervous if another dog barked at her. Which happens at some trials! We had a few really disastrous trials where she shut down completely...

Allergy Food Suggestions
About a year after wrecking my brains trying to find a food to feed my dogs, I am in the same boat again...lol. So, I did a lot of research on foods and decided grain free was the way to go. It seems like ever since I started feeding grain free, two of my dogs have started suffering from skin issues...

Solid Gold bought by Purina?
Some of you know that Jessie has to be on a low fat diet because she has chronic pancreatitis. She has been doing well on Solid Gold Holistique Blendz (6% fat). I add meat because it's only 18% protein. Unlike some of Solid Gold's formulas, it is not made by Diamond. Anyway, there was none...

Do raw fed dogs live longer?
On another thread it was mentioned that some raw fed Labs live to be 16 so I was wondering if those of you who feed raw have dogs that have lived beyond the life expectancy for their breed or have personal knowledge of other raw fed dogs that have; from other boards you're a member of, etc. From...

Grasshoppers
Here I go again, grasshoppers seem to be the latest game and snack. Now, she won't leave them alone and eats them left and right (they are everywhere here, pretty hard to control it) Anything I should worry about with them. Freida just makes me laugh and then roll my eyes.

Callie, in here please :)
Callie, do you think I can do your basic recipe raw instead of cooked? I've been using it as a topper for the most part but thinking maybe of using it as a sole raw diet. I think I'd mix the meat and calcium separate and then cook the veggies separately, cool and then mix with the meat. ...

Orijen Senior
So I started Grey on Orijen Senior. Wow, what a potent smell when you open the bag. Good grief! Are all their varieties as smelly? Grey could care less. He eats turds (no matter what I do lol), so he's doesn't exactly have the most refined tastes.
