when the bredder wormed him. so would have been 6-8 weeks old i guess. and she said to do him at 3 months again. he turned 11 weeks today. -
Our puppy is now 11 weeks old and in that last week I have noticed his poo's are not as firm as they were before. much more sloppier than before. he has not changed his food... he is happy and healthy. He has yoghurt each morning on his breakfast and I did change to a natural yogurt. Before that for a few weeks, since we got him, we had been just using our yougurt we eat. Other thing is we have incresed his amounts we are feeding him. Any ideas as to what could be making this happen ??????

Breeder said as an adult she feeds abut 1/3 meat, 1/3 dry food, 1/3 vegies/brown rice. he has been breeding for 30 years and knows what she is talking abut i reckon. She stated NEVER give bones as bull terrier's jaws are extremely powerful. I am happy to ask butcher for their mince. i just thought it may have been all fatty and no good for them, but if you say its ok then i would give them that mixed with dry food. Maybe wont add rice and vegies anymore now. I can afford good food for him , but i just through BARF was pretty damn expensive and a bit too much. when i looked into a solid RAW diet - that seemed too complicted.

Hi, Once my puppy is 12 weeks old we are going to slowly change his diet from what the breeder reccomended. she told us till he was 12 weeks to have him on BARF and ADVANCE rehydratable biscuits. I am thinking of using a mixture of a dry dog food with just human grade mince or diced steak or chicken. Whatevers on special. We will also give him flaxseed meal once a day. sometimes I may mix this meat up with brown rice and some vegies to make the dollar stretch further. Is this going to be ok. Would the meat be better raw or cooked? I am worried about giving him to much preservitives etc. as I am worried about him ending up with allergies. The vet reccomended a dry food and TUCKER TIME dog roll. I checked ingredients and it seems all pretty natural but wonder if these rolls are fattening and how do they stay fresh at shop for so long without any badies in there. the vet did not like BARF at all due to big bones being crushed up and the dog never being able to digest these. she mentioned something about seeing how it moves throught the intestines and can scratch the wall with these small bones. Its probally to expensive anyone for me to stay on. Ta

Hi, We have ourselve s a new MINI BULL TERRIER - Lance. His 10 weeks this sunday and we have had him since he turned 8 weeks. We are still feeding him the same amount that the breeder advised us to feed him at 8 weeks when he left her. How do we know when to give gim more? he's having a mxture of BARF and a ADVANCE puppy rehyratable dry food, 4 times a day. He hoovers it like nothing i have seen before. i dont think he even tastes it. he would probally eat till he was sick if we let him - his stomach probally takes a few minutes to register he's even easten its that quick. He never acts hungry when its not feed times and hes sleeping and growing well. I think since we got him he went from 3.5kg to 7kg. He does not look skinny or fat. Ta
