Dog Food

Like a lot of people who have replied to this thread we feed a pretty varied diet. Our dog gets Vets All Natural (a veggie and grain mix with trace nutrients etc) with kangaroo, beef and chicken mince as his main breakfast and a tin of sardines for his main dinner. But this is alternated with chicken frames, lamb necks, chicken wings etc, and quality leftover human food (e.g. beetroot risotto, scallop and spinach pasta, roast lamb and veggies - to name a few recent examples). He'll also get garden produce mixed with scrambled duck eggs (we breed and show ducks so we have lots of eggs....).. He also gets bits of fruit (had a pear today, minus stem and seeds), raw chucks of veg and a bit of anything we are eating (tonight he had some school prawns we couldn't finish). I go by the principles that define a good human diet (i.e. as unprocessed as possible and with a lot of variety) but with a lot more raw food and plenty of raw, easily crushable, meaty bones as well. We fed our previous dog this kind of way and, similar to others, our vet always commented on his great teeth and coat, right up to his passing at age 14.

But I also agree with the comment that was made that there are a number of healthy ways to feed a dog :) If you have a happy dog with good skin, coat and teeth and of the correct weight then you are doing something right.
