I give him natural yogurt as it helps with his digestion but he only gets it occasionally. He gets canned sardines every couple of weeks. Also, just fyi - kibble is designed to be a balanced & complete diet for dogs, so your pup won't be missing out on any vital nutrients on the kibble if that's what you're worried about :). Extras are good to add but they shouldn't replace his actual meal. Raw bones would be another good thing to give him - do you have a local butcher handy? My pup particularly loves lamb necks, turkey necks and lamb flaps but I know DOLers feed all kinds of bones (non-weight bearing kind). The most important thing is giving him a balanced diet and making sure he's at a healthy weight :) Especially seeing as retrievers have a tendency to get quite porky as they are total garbage disposal machines! Yes we have a local butcher not to far away thank you for your answers :)

Thanks hankodie :) greatly appreciated.

My golden retriever gets a couple of cups of kibble a day, sometimes I add yogurt, canned sardines, bits of (dog friendly) leftovers, etc depending on what's around. If you want to supplement his diet on top of the kibble you could give him raw meaty bones. What kind of yoghurt so you give?

Sorry I didn't mean it the way it's obviously came across. I plan on still using it I just don't want to do kibble only . So could I mix raw meat with it ect

5 yo lab

So the dog we are adopting is currently on Blackhawk. I will get done of this but what else can I introduce to make it last longer. She also gets veggies occasionally and a raw egg once a week.

Oh my these pics are hilarious .

Arrrgghhh stupid phone wouldn't load I properly

Yeah I saw that thread :/. And yes I know it's you're but being on my phone and autocorrect makes for some mistakes :p

Makes my blood boil the were talking about the guy who tattooed his " pit bull" then goes on to say, what if the tattoo sAid " your an idiot" and then something about that if the pitbull ripped your face off you'd be an idiot. Seriously

Thanks oak way. Will do :)

Thanks will pm katdogs. And I will to tlc:)

So ive told hubby that we are getting a puppy for jaZ. She LOVES dogs and they always make he smile :) as some of you have seen in t off topic thread jaz is incredibly sick so Althing that will make her smile and laugh and have fun is a must. Having said that it will be exercised by me and looked after by me . I've been eyeing of labs and I'm pretty sure this is the dog for us. So I guess my questions are what do we need? What are the essentials , non essentials but won't hurt all that. And can any lab owners recommend me a good breeder of black and yellow labs
