What’s left from the last burglar…

What's left from the last burglar...One if the reasons why I feed my dog big FRESH bones are burglars. Why? Well, if I was a  burglar looking over the wall of a potential house to break in and would see big, half rotten bones I would choose the neighbors house… Whatever is eating those bones must be big!
Not necessarily. Dogs of every size should get bones. It is important for their diet because their whole system is designed to eat bones and therefore needs them to function properly. So it doesn’t matter what size your dog is, small or big – it needs bones!!!!!! Never forget that! Also age doesn’t matter, as long as there are teeth there should be bones.

People often ask me what I do in summer when my dog doesn’t eat the whole bone in one go…
There are a few options here:
1. I give him smaller bones, like lamb shanks, that he will eat in one go
2. If you don’t mind the smell of a “half rotten” bone, your dog doesn’t either! They are scavengers, they eat everything and have the means to digest it. But anyway – in summer I never leave it out there for more than a couple of days in winter (talking of the Australian winter here) 4 to 5 days.
3. Chicken wings! They are great for your dogs diet, bones and meat all in one! And no dog will not eat that at the spot…

Cook for your dog?

Am I mad? Cooking for your dog when you can just run down to the pet store or supermarket and be blown away with the hundreds of choices of dog food?
