I want to feed my Chihuahua with human grade food

• starsenchis Posted : 4/20/2006 7:02:24 AM Here is some chihuahua-specific nutrition information.  There are kibble recommendations, links to where you can buy it, raw info, etc, etc. [linkhttp://members.cox.net/starsen/feeding%20guidelinesintro.html]http://members.cox.net/starsen/feeding%20guidelinesintro.html[/link] 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• MC Arab Posted : 4/20/2006 11:01:44 PM Well I am still feeding him raw just not pure raw. I brown the outside so it looks cooked but it's not and my dad hasn't said anything. I feed him 3/4s of a rib a day is that enough food you think or too much? 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• beth82 Posted : 4/22/2006 11:56:16 AM Are you just feeding him the rib and nothing else?  He needs additional muscle meat and a little organ meat to make a balanced diet. I don't know about the amount. How big is your dog, and how old is he? 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• cc431 Posted : 4/22/2006 1:04:42 PM ORIGINAL: TAK   My dad is being a major douche and is telling me to quit feeding him raw because it disturbs him and that humans don't eat raw. My dad is a f****** moron and won't even listen to me so is there some sort of official site that looks professional that proves I am right and he is being assanine?   [linkhttp://www.therobertabadydogfoodcoltd.com/how_to_choose.htm]http://www.therobertabadydogfoodcoltd.com/how_to_choose.htm[/link]   [linkhttp://www.abadyfeeds.com/]http://www.abadyfeeds.com/[/link]   CC. 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• Britney Pelletier Posted : 4/22/2006 1:25:57 PM If you plan to strictly feed your dog a raw diet, I would suggest doing a little more researcg before you just start tossing things to him so that you can assure he's getting a properly balanced diet. Another suggestion would to be to look into some of the varieties of premixed frozen raw food such as "Steve's Real Food", "Oma's Pride", etc. which make it a little easier on you and all makes sure your dog is getting what it needs, nutritionally. If all else fails, and you really cannot feed raw, I would suggest putting him on Innova Evo. My chihuahua's did very well on it when I wasn't able to feed them raw anymore, and they were being free fed at that! (something I do not do or recommend anymore.) But they looked great, had tons of energy, small nearly odor-less poops, and their coats were immaculately shiny and soft. 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• olinda Posted : 4/30/2006 1:14:52 PM ORIGINAL: TAK Also as far as raw meaty bones what are some different kinds that are easy for small dogs to eat since every raw diet site I have encountered has been tailored more so for tall dogs.   I usually give mine chicken backs, wings or necks plus he also gets ox tails, lamb shanks or ribs and pork necks.  Turkey necks,  I don't give because even my vet who is a holistic vet and raw food fanatic has told me to be very careful when feeding because towards the middle they have a bone that is very sharp, so why tempt fate. 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• olinda Posted : 4/30/2006 1:26:59 PM [ Also what are some good treats for training him that aren't terrible for him? I like any of the treats by Bravo they are naturally dehydrated and the variey is great.  Under the heading "Products" look for the link that says "Bravo Bonus Bites".  Romeo, likes all of them, but is especially fond of the cod, calamari and buffalo liver. 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.
