Heads up - a bunch of new IDs

     I almost posted that she should have her thyroid checked but didn't want to thread jack and knew it wasn't worth it... oh and my beloved mutt brought me a single page of the newspaper to taunt me and let me know he was bored.

    Hey can I give the devil in black fur a hunk of liver?  I know you can't give a bunch over and over but I have some emu liver, I'd guess about 8-10oz's frozen solid.  I get a butcher hatchet thing and whack pieces off but I'd love to just give it to him.

    What do you think?

     so do you think the fat JRT gets 3oz's a day bwa ha ha ha

    What are you guys talking about?

    Meanwhile, we're almost up to our quota of 100 spam IDs for today - just 775 now... I expect another 25 thru the rest of the day. lol  *sigh*

    I will be mega-swamped tomorrow as I get ready for my clinic for Newbies to competitive Obed.  The class is tomorrow night.  I feel ill-prepared at this point, which means I'll be cramming to make sure all is right. :D  Wish me luck!

     Raw diet post in nutrition

    Good luck with the new class

    I'll do some ahem 'approvals' tonight and can do some in the morning, sigh

     HAH!! Logan brings me things when he wants something, too.  Dorks!!

     A hunk of liver? 8-10 oz?  Yeah, totally, is that his entire meal, though? Or can you throw some bone in there, too?  That's a little rich, maybe nice to temper it with some bone, but it'd be fine probably.  What's his normal oz per meal?

    I did them before bed and haven't done any today yet Paige, SORRY!!!  Good grief.

    I should be able to keep up with it tomorrow.  

    You're gonna ROCK your class, they are SUPER lucky to have you!

     I'll do some bone with it - he gets about 2lbs a day if all raw

    • Gold Top Dog

     I think some bone will just tone it down a bit, but he'd probably be fine with it alone.  Logan is fine with all organ meat for a meal, but I prefer to half it and give it with each meal. But, if it's frozen and I'm lazy? Eh.  I'd have no problem with it.

    2lbs, that's not so bad!  Logan is at about 24oz.  When he was about 15-18 months he was at 3 lbs a day and skinny... added sweet potato with butter.  Glad that's over with, but I miss my puppeh.

    yes I miss my puppy but I can recall 8 cups of kibble a day - which I don't miss LOL

    The problem for me with raw is I can't feed poultry due to allergies - no way I can do 14lbs of beef/lamb a week - heck I can't even find safe beef bones any more, lamb is rare to find in good size pieces but at the per lb price it isn't in the cards.  His raw is usually pork, beef heart, or fresh fish that a friend catches

    I live with an Oma's Pride distributor and could get wholesale prices on this food... and I *still* can't afford it.  I give you guys credit for all the effort!

     someone actually pointed me to Oma's Pride - good golly i would need a fortune to feed him that!  If he could do poultry i think I could make it work. I mean I buy Orijen and that is stupid expensive BUT he does amazing on it and eats less of it than any other food.  he eats about 4 cups of Orijen but needs 5 of TOTW which is similar in calories per cup. i no longer question it and just feed Orijen with occasional thinning with the TOTW

    I don't think all dogs thrive on raw but Bugsy would - when I've been able to get stuff to sustain him for 2+ weeks he looks great

    More IDs lately - frack, I killed 108 when I got home from work last night, and there were 78 new ones when I came in this morning.  There are a couple I'm not entirely confident they're not spammers (FighterDave, yukii, and QuitWhinning! --- yes, with two n's!  ack, and his email address says he's in the Navy!)  Anyway, keep an eye on weird activity, pls?? Gracias!

     will do! A bit of running today but feeling better and should have some time to be of help. I truly have been laid out by the bronchitis/asthma and accompanying lack of sleep

    Oh, awesome, Quit Whinning! has already started.... check out TPBM and his Doggy Xanax!!! thread.... oye.  I sent him a warning.  I don't expect him to back down, but rather to ramp things up.  Watch out...

    I know someone was in there earlier this morning at the same time as me, working to clean up the 100+ IDs.  Thank you!  I tried 8 times last night from home and could only get 5 done at a time before the whole thing hung up.  *sigh*

     It was Karen, I did 98 last night before bed, so about 10:30 West Coast.  .... another 100 in just a few hours?  Ridiculous.  I did 140 on Saturday night, too.  ........ it really is getting worse!  I'm glad Terry was able to help us with that login ban.  I hope it helps!!
