I give all my dogs fish oil capsules each night. I also have an old Kelpie x Labrador who always had skin problems but they cleared up once I started her on the fish oil.

What Do You Feed Your Dog And Why?
Norskgra replied to squirt80's topic in Health / Nutrition / Grooming
I feed my dogs on Nutro Natural Choice. They also get chricken frames, turkey necks, sardines and an egg once a week. Nutro is the only dog that all of my dogs happily eat. Since I changed them to Nutro, they are in the best condition they have ever been. They also don't lose as much coat. I like Nutro because it does not contain any chemical preservatives, artificial colouring or corn. -
I feed mine mainly Nutro but they also get sardines, eggs and turkey necks, chicken frames etc with their Nutro a few times a week. I also add yoghurt, Fish Oil capsules and Apple Cider Vinegar every day and cottage cheese a few times a week.

This is a great idea. It works equally well in winter for humans to find out if metal is frozen as well. I agree

As has previously been said, you need to have water available for the puppy at all times. Edited because we posted at the same time. You really should be asking the breeder questions and not just the people here. That is what breeders are for, asking questions. Your breeder should always be the first [erson you contact with questions.

:p :p Skwo2, have you asked the breeder any questions since you bought your pup?

I am so sorry, Hesapandabear. RIP Simba

What Is An Irresistible Food For Dogs?
Norskgra replied to Silly Cat's topic in Health / Nutrition / Grooming
I had 2 fussy eaters, one of them was driving me mad. The only dry food that they will eat is Nutro. They actually go berserk when they see me going to the conainer to dish up their dinners. -
It goes for all dogs. I wouldn't be taking a 9 week old pup out for walks at all until it is fully vaccinated.

I feed my dogs fish oil capsules every day. I get which ever ones are on special at our chemist. Lately it has been Blackmores. The dose is 1 capsule for every 10kg body weight. Our dogs come running when they hear me pick up the container and eat them out of my hand.
-
ETA - The food I am feeding my dogs could be classified as expensive but it is the only food that they all happily eat and their condtion has never been better. The 2 that used to be fussy now race to their dinner places to wait for it and eat every last crumb without having to be hand fed or coaxed. That to me is worth paying more if not for any other reason.

It is not just my dogs that love Nutro. I was transferring a couple of bags into containers last night and one of our cats jumped up and grabbed some of the Chicken and Rice. He loved it too. Now it looks like we will have to get some for 2 of our cats as well. :D

Super Premium Food With Joint Support
Norskgra replied to ish's topic in Health / Nutrition / Grooming
I feed my Elkhounds and Afghan on Nutro. All of the range of Nutro dry contain Glucosamine and Chondroitin. They have one for High Energy dogs as well as several other varieties. My dogs love it and have never been in better condition. They don't lose as much coat either and it is guaranteed to inmprove their skin and coat. -
Thanks Cassie. They love their Nutro.
-
I know my dogs aren't large breeds but my male almost fallls into a large breed for food. They eat less of Nutro than any other food. I also wouldn't mix it with other dries. A large bag lasts us upward of 6 weeks to feed 4 dogs and that includes an Afghan.
-
When any of my dogs need to lose weight, I feed them half the quanity of lite dry food and replace the other half with mashed pumpkin. The pumpkin fills them up.
-
I feed mine Nutro with chicken wings, necks or frames added. I also add sardines and an egg once a week.

I agree with MM. I have tried my dogs on a raw diet, Eukanuba, Iams, Royal Canin, Science Diet, Advance, ProPlan, Optimum, Nutrience, Bonnie, Coprice and even Supercoat trying to find a food they will all eat and do well on. The only food they will all eat is Nutro which is a super premium food. Since I started them on it, they have smaller stools, eat less of it and are in the best condition they have ever been in. They also do not lose as much coat. They actually get excited when they know it is dinner time instead of me having to hand feed them. ;)

We go though 9 cups per day for 5 dogs. That adds up to 63 cups per week or about 270 cups per month or 3,285 cups per year.

I don't know about stunning but definately the best dressed. I have worn skirt suits twice before and although I have received lots of compliments about the suits, my dogs haven't done as well as when I have worn pant suits. I am hoping that will change next weekend when I am being dressed by MM and hopefully your luck will be somewhere in the suits. I am not that confident seeing that Tyra is still out of coat and Kari should have finished her season the day before but you never know.
-
Thanks, MM. I have told my daughter that she has to take her camera and take some photos next weekend at our Specialty and the Spitz Breed Show. Providing I have time to change, that should be the teal suit and the lime jacket taken care of. I made a skirt to wear with the jacket. Then I just have to enter some more shows for the other suits.
-
Another thing you could try is Incremin. It is used to stimulate the appetite in babies and children and is available at any Chemist. Personally, I have had great success with Nutrigel/Nutripet.

Hi Midniara, You will have to get someone to take photos of you in the suits while you are showing. I will get my daughter to take some photos of me wearing a couple of the suits that MM sent me. I will be wearing one of them to our Specialty. The suits that MM sent me brought her good luck so hopefully, I will have the same luck. :D

Nutro contains no chemical preservatives, animal by products or colourants.
