What Do You Feed Your Dog?

[joeintexas]

Does anyone else here give there dog a bowl of Kibble and whole milk each day. My dog absolutely loves it. I have a slightly over sized bowl filled half way with kibble and then up to about ¾ with milk. Kind of like people do with their breakfast cereals. A gallon of milk lasts her about 10 days or so. And when she hears the kibble hitting that ceramic bowl she is already bouncing in anticipation. She also gets a daily boiled egg and some human grade meat chopped mixed in with her dry kibble. I use a Purina Pro Plan for dogs with sensitive skin, but I may change from that in the coming months. I also sometimes put a couple of ounces of peanut butter in small dabs mixed in the kibble. I buy those large 4 pound jars of smooth peanut butter for her, but I end up eating almost as much of it as she does. LOL

I never feed her canned dog food. She also gets fresh raw hog bones with meat on them and deer bones when they are available. I think she likes them even more than the kibble and milk. Even more rarely she catches the slow squirrel or rabbit for a quick off the book snack.

I don't think I have ever just fed her a bowl of dry kibble without some real protein mixed in with it.

Man finesse if you're giving your dog a boiled egg everyday I bet she could clear out an auditorium!! Seriously, we feed both of ours Natural Balance.

Blue Buffalo

The review gave Blue Buffalo a 2-3 star rating , almost the same as Purina Pro Plan. Hard to know what to feed and what "study" to believe.

ANgus gets the Purina Lamb & Rice, an occasional milk bone and when he can get away with it-kitty McNuggets from the litter box.

It's amazing how many dogs LOVE Kitty McNuggets!

In Navajo the word for dog is "the one that eats ****"

Hill's Science Diet dry. Her bowl is always full and she eats whenever she wants. She does get very little people food and has a very sensitive stomach. We tried a different food recently and had to visit the vet for stomach meds. Switched her right back to what she was used to and gave the other bag to the animal shelter.

Small female mutt-type dog, 13 years old.
Somewhat gassy last night and this morning.
We just shared a Triscuit with garlicky hummus.

Did I fail to think this all the way through?

Yes. Yes you did.

Shoot.
Maybe some hard salami to cancel the effects.

I have three coon dogs, two blueticks and a walker. I have coon hunted since 1985 and always had dogs. I have never fed anything other than plain old Purina dog chow in the green bag. All my buddies feed that high dollar science stuff and you know what??? There dogs run the same deer and fox that mine do!!!!

No table food for my elvevenish-year-old rat terrier rescue dog, though I occasionally let him pre-rinse a plate or soup bowl I''ve cleaned.

From day one living here, almost five years ago, he's eaten Pedigree Small Dog. Suits him fine.

She does not have a chance since I eat two boiled eggs every morning.

Sounds like a solid case of self defense to me.
