Can't beleive some of the crap people feed their dogs on here. I know not everyone is into their dogs as much as some but a little research for your dogs health can go a long way.

this is not having a go at you, but what would you suggest to feed a dog..i know most dogs are different but just a genneral idea..seems a bit pointless posting what you did without giving any advice/ reason, because by saying that im assuming you must be into your dogs and know a bit about them?

Human Gravy is one of the worst things for a dog, the salt content is bad for them, i'm assuming your putting Bisto or the likes on it.

i mentioned about him not eating what i was giving him to the vet when he was having his jabs, and the vet said to put gravy on..i know what your saying about the salt but fuck me, dogs will eat shite and allsorts..im sure the crap tinned food is made of will do as much harm(or not far off) as gravy..they have guts made of steel

Nutritionaly dry/tinned is sum of the worst shite you can feed a dog.Research the ingredients/additives and tell me its all good healthy natural dog food.Its easier and less hassle short term at what cost?the life of your dog?Dry dog food is sloppy crap and the digestion system isnt aware or prepared for the food due to it being a few gulps as opposed to naturally having to hunt/tear at meat/bone etc.
Dogs have the insides of wolfs as thats what there believed to be off.
How did dogs every survive before humans?By eating and scaveging anything and everything from Bugs-Shite Fruit-Brains Meat-Bones Soil-Bark dogs Dogs didnt eat grains etc and thats a major additive to dry food.

my ebt is fed on james well beloved, he used to puke in the night about 1-2 a month on pedigree chum dried food and butchers tripe tinned.

To be fair the greedy pig could be fed anything as it doesn't touch the sides of his gob.


He suffers with his anal glands, could a change of diet help this, he has porridge oats and all bran to help bulk his poo out, which should help empty the glands naturally, i'm not convinced myself

Anal sacks are emptied when the animal has to strain to do the toilet almost what youd think was constipation.However perfectly natural and the result of a healthy immune system producing firm stools.Oats wont cure it long-terms at least not healthily.

Pm-ing you

Am I wrong in saying it can cause Trichinosis if undercooked?

See i only feed human grade pork and all raw.Hydatids tapeworm was a problem as a dog is the animal that can pass the disease to humans and a factor as to why people cook meats for dogs although cooking destroys enzimes.freezing meat for 10days at -20cel kills it but provided you buy from a reputable seller the animals are very strictly tested prior to slaughter any animal could carry this not just pork.

Im not being wide mate just i know alot of people myself included who feed pork.

It certanily has more nutrition in it reading the ingredients than most!
I honestly aint a fan of dry/meal type foods but thats a personal choice but yes its alot healthier reading than alot of types.

I get my stuff from various outlets but i know alot of people use this place if you want a look.
