fresh veg is better anyway lol dont do frozen unless its peas , the good thing is if i havnt used it at the end of the week i just pulp it up for the dogs, this week they got butternut squash and cauliflower amongst other goodies . Cant you run some electrics down to your shed and have a freezer in there ??

Not really, the shed is away down the garden and I'm not good with electrics!

Mine had potato, carrots and apples last time they had veg. The pups love whole eggs!

Im no electrician but its not to hard my dad was gonna do it in ours till i realised the shed roof had been leeking and the floor wont hold the weight .All you need to do is measure the lenght of cable you would need and either get someont to put a single socket to plug in the freezer one end and a plug on the other it could be plugged in you garage or kitchen then run up to the shed , or one of thoes really log extension leads on a reel .you would bury it in the flower beds down the side of the garden.

We got some lamb ribs in all the bones we got, they love them too!

OK, todays update i dont know if its good or bad so hope you can all advise.
I gave a small amount of arden grange in with rice late last night and again this morning, he didnt go to toilet as usual before i went to work, came home still didnt need to go, he has just been and its very firm but a very strange two tone colour, half was a green tinge with a couple of peas in it from tuesday and the other half was brown, do i need to worry about this green colour?

If its a normal consistancy i wouldnt worry about the colour too much just be sensible and feed little and often .

I would stop trying different foods each time you get a problem. I have experience with GSD'S & they have all had very delicate tummies. The worse thing you can do is to keep changing foods. I have used Burgess Supadog for Sensitive Stomach's - Lamb/Rice for the last 2 yrs. It certainly suits my dog. His stools have firmed up & he certainly does a lot less! I also feed raw in the mornings, but raw feeding isn't for everyone. If you do try it, don't change immediately, gradually change over a period of a few days. Good Luck.

Hi Beardy, thanks for reply. He was on Burns (lamb) which we changed him onto slowly over about a week but after a few days of being fully on the food his stools were soft with mucus again. He is now on chicken and rice again and once agin perfect stools. My vet wants a series of stool samples to test for parasites (which i will do) then they want to do blood tests for allergy testing , but i think its food related because as soon as hes on rice and chicken hes fine. Maybe i will try burns chicken and rice or just keep home feeding him.
