We all talk about proper parrot nutrition and how important it is.
Lets talk about our canine family members .
I used to feed my dogs a prey model raw diet. Which they did great on and truly enjoyed. I liked it because of the famous raw stool that would turn to powder once dried, so that meant the pooper scooper got retired to the garage. While my dogs were healthy and happy on it, it was ALOT of work!
Raw feeding is great if you have Grocery stores and butchers that provide multiple cuts of meat and organs for a decent price. But it's not always easy. Also if you want to do raw in bulk you may have to purchase a second freezer just to store everything lol.
I had my dogs on Raw for two years and though the prep was pretty long and nasty, my dogs were healthy as ever.
I then got a job where my hours made it much harder to continue to prepare raw meals for my dogs. I thought of the premade raw options but the price is beyond ridicules.
And so I transitioned my current dogs onto Blue Buffalo Wilderness. WOW did I forget how convenient it is to just measure out kibble into bowls lol. I know it sounds lazy but after having to hack up chickens and large cuts of meat, measure, and portion it all out, and then have to defrost meals every day...It was nice to go back to kibble. A lot less gross too. Lol I hated handling raw meat...Especially organs .
Recently I switched my dogs to Canidae Grain Free PURE Elements Lamb formula. Mainly because two of my four dogs were not liking the Blue Buffalo and I liked the limited ingredients in the Canidae formula. Many of my raw feeding friends who feed half raw and half kibble feed Canidae and only had good things to say.
I can say that ALL of my dogs enjoy it much more than Blue Buffalo. They chow it down like it is the best thing ever. Even my finicky little Chi/Yorkie mix eats it happily. Everyone has shiny coats, perfect weight, and no itching problems ect. I definitely think this is the best food for us.
So far they
