Re: Feeding My Dog .. In Turkey ..

Personally I wouldn't feed any of the foods you've listed. Science Plan & Pedigree are a definate no-no. I'd suggest doing some research on home-cooked or BARF instead, there's plenty of good websites around for both.

I would only ever feed raw myself. I don't rate Royal Canin for a few reasons, the ingredients, their parent company and the things they are associated with.

The only commercial food I would ever give my dogs is Orijen and that would only be if a situation I couldn't feed raw presented iteself.

Re: Feeding My Dog .. In Turkey ..

Thankyou , I Would Feed Jasper Raw Food Its Just Mom Shes Totally Against It >.< She Dosent Even Have A Proper Reason WHY She Dosent Want To Give Him It .. ( He Is My Dog Anyway >.< ) Or Because Jasper Has Been Eating Dry Food All His Life Like Never Anything Raw Would It Upset His Tummy If We Did Change Him To Raw Food ? ( I Know To Introduce It Slowely And All But Still Would It Give Him A Bad Stomach And Things ? )

But Mom Has No Problem With Cooking Food For HIm At All Just As Long As Its Not Raw , So I Think We Will Give Him Cooked Home Meals



Thanks Again

Re: Feeding My Dog .. In Turkey ..

All mine are fed on Royal Canin and are in tip top condition the only exception are the tibetan terriers and also the german spitz who suffered a broken jaw last yrar they are all fed on robbies holistic, I think you have to feed what suits you and yours I could never feed a barf diet it would just not be viable and Orijen sounds good but for me it would be ordering too much in bulk. Royal Canin is a good food and I have actually eaten it myself, I would be worried about feeding raw where you live due to the quality of the raw meat.
