Re: teeth cleaning
We were staying with family and I gave some very expensive kibble to Teal, who generally is a greedy little sod she looked at me as if I had lost the plot I had to do Sainsbury run for chicken wings to get us over the few days we were away

Re: teeth cleaning
A few years ago, I went dog sledding in Lapland. The sled dogs were fed once a day, and each received a lump of raw, fatty mince, hacked off from a frozen slab and fed to the dogs still frozen. They were the epitome of canine fitness, and would pull the sleds all day.
Inside every springer, no matter how well trained, is an idiot trying to get out

Dogs on the Iditarod 100 mile race eat frozen raw a lot too...those are the Olympians of sled dogs
Re: teeth cleaning
That's the only problem with feeding meat, if you run out or feel you cannot fill a friends freezer with dog meat you can get some very dirty looks !jeffD wrote:We were staying with family and I gave some very expensive kibble to Teal, who generally is a greedy little sod she looked at me as if I had lost the plot I had to do Sainsbury run for chicken wings to get us over the few days we were away
Re: teeth cleaning
I'm soft and buy eye wateringly expensive freeze dried raw for stay away feeding, though I do give mine a handful of kibble in the evenings just so they don't forget what it is!
