If he's doing ok on the chicken and rice, why not keep him on that. I'd use brown rice, and add some green leafy veg to help slow down and firm up the movements. I would also add a wholemeal mixer to it, laughing dog or asda's own range is best

Allan i couldnt remember the origen name i know you say its a good one , Knew you would pop up eventually and post it lol , it does look good i had a browse at the site the other day just out of curiosity , bit pricey but i guess you get what you pay for , Saying that the meat i bought 3 weeks ago is going down a treat and i worked out ive got another 30 odd days of food left all for 30 quid lol it dont make sense that dry food is so expensive and full of bad stuff and reall meat thats sos good can be so cheep to buy .

to be honest i had thought it but was worried he wouldnt be getting enough nutrients etc...also i find it quicker and easier to use a dry food but this is another option if you think its nutritionally ok for him, he does like it.

Same here I've finally found a great local supplier and got 30kg of meaty bones for £6.90 and when I say meaty I really do mean meaty, the chicken bones are nearly meaty enough to be fed without any extra meat so it's worked out a total bargain. It's cost me well under £10 to feed all three of them this week!

If you make up a big batch and freeze its much easier. I get 10-12 portions out of 1kg of rice and a bag of mixed veg. I don't feed it everyday so it lasts me longer but if you made a giant pan and portioned it up you wouldn't have to worry through the week. Izzy goes mad for it!

LOL its mad i think i worked it out it cost us with the extra veg and fruit about £6 per week for the 2 dogs , i thought you were struggling for freezer space did you get one in the end ???

No, we've just got no food for ourselves LOL

Just going to order 20kg next time so we have some space left for our own food.

The £10 is including probiotic yoghurt and fruit and veg!

Yeah was looking at the yogurt that just for the good bacteria isnt it , ive got some stuff i bought from the health food shop a while a go thats the same sort of thing its a capsule of good bacteria you swallow and it has the same effect ( acidopholus ) i havnt given them any just wondered if you could ?? .

The idea isnt that it gives you the excuse to live on chinese LOL

Yeah it's for good bacteria, live cultures and all that! If it's natural I can't see why you can't give it, all mine love the yoghurt though I would really recommend it.

Haha you can read me like a book! We have a little space left but not a great deal, it has meant only buying a weeks worth of meat for ourselves where we usually buy loads every few weeks and buying all fresh veg instead of frozen!
