That is one of the most stupid things I've ever heard. Dogs have a
carnivorous mouth, carnivorous teeth and the total digestive system of a
carnivore.

We are omnivores. We have teeth that grind vegetable matter, not ones
that rip meat. We have a longer digestive system to break down what we
eat and our digestive juices are not as strong as that of dogs.

Boy, I feel like I'm back in school! These basics of anatomy were taught
in grade school for crying out loud.

The dog (Canis lupus familiaris,[2] pronounced /?ke?.n?s ?lu?p?s
f??m?li??r?s/) i

s a domesticated form of the wolf, a member of the Canidae family of the
order

Carnivora.

Do you understand what the order Carnivora contains? Carnivores! Very good!


I guess your dogs don't eat grass. Also, when my dogs eat squirrels
or rabbits, they eat whatever is in the squirrels or rabbits.

I notice that once again, you have failed to provide any proof of your
ridiculous assertions about kibble.

just for info the diarrea was gone, i don feed my puppy for 12 hours and
then feed with the aeukanuba for little portions, today i feed it with the
regular portion and the poo is hard jeje

im interested in that info Char, rawfed


Careful Daniel. Char is a bit off the centerline mentally on this 'raw'
bit.

You are using eukanaba which is definately a good brand of food. I do the
same and put some wet in the evening bowl.

Dogs prefer to be fed twice a day if they arent the sort where you can just
leave 'free kibble around to munch at will'. Something like 8am and 8pm or
a variation of that which fits your work schedule. Doesnt have to be dead
on 12 hours apart. Cash-pup and Daisy-cat eat at about 6:15am and 6pm but
that's because it works for us. Weekends, they semi-patiently wait for
breakfast until 8am (grin).

To explain that some breeds (or nature of the dog if you prefer) are more
prone to just eating it all up until they get sick, while others are happy
to have a whole bowl and just munch a bit at a time as the day goes on.

You trash a species appropriate diet and recommend Eukanuba? It's
garbage hon. Full of grains and other things that hurt dogs.

I notice you have to make a personal attack to try and make me look bad.
I guess if that's all you've got! LOL!

It's better than what you have. I just added this area and virtually *every
post made* here in the past 2 months is met with one from you that the
problem is your version of raw diet not being applied. Serious broken
record replay syndrome.

Give it rest and note that Daniel's dog just needed a day to adjust diet.

I think we got it that you believe in a raw meat diet for dogs. Now, let
the rest of us talk? Or did you intend to kill the newsgroup deliberately?

I, my vet said that dont feed the puppy for 12 hours to stop the diarrea and
then feed with little portiosn of the new brand, after that my puppy is
doing "poo" hard and dark and whitout odors.. i think because of the
premium food

Thanks

Hi Cshenk

i feed my schnauzer 3 times in the day, she had 3 months and 15 days... is
weigth is about 6.8 lb.


i use this time to feed it:

7:30 am
2:00 pm
and
7:30 pm

this because i wok from 8:00 am to 1:30 pm and 3:00 pm to 7:00 pm

i eat in the same hours, i give it 1 1/4 cup, divided in 3 parts, sometimes
i use a little part of a can with the dry food.

she like it,

what do you think about the food time? it is good, my vet say after 6 months
she can eat 2 times in a day.

Thanks

Yes, it is a good one you are feeding him. It isn't always cost that
determes this but having checked labels on nutrition and additives,
eukanaba, IAMS and Science diet are decent for dogs. I know this isnt a cat
newsgroup but if you have cats, let me know. They need a goodly wet diet to
live long.

sorry my english


Never worry my friend over that. I've lived much of my life overseas from
my home country. You communicate perfectly, which I can not do in any other
language in verbal form but learned how to draw lots of pictures and use
hand gestures to get my point across in person. That said, I can manage a
little spanish, german, korean, thai, latin and nihongo (japanese). Believe
me, in none of them can I communicate as well as you do in english.

I'm not familar with schnauzers specifically but this is a mini version I
think? They arent real big dogs at full grown?

i use this time to feed it:
7:30 am
2:00 pm
and
7:30 pm

this because i wok from 8:00 am to 1:30 pm and 3:00 pm to 7:00 pm


That works. Logic of my own head says if I want to eat 3 times a day, my
pets to as well.

i eat in the same hours, i give it 1 1/4 cup, divided in 3 parts,
sometimes i use a little part of a can with the dry food.


That might be a bit much but she's growing. (language thiing, use she or he
that the puppy is here)

she like it,
what do you think about the food time? it is good, my vet say after 6
months she can eat 2 times in a day.


I think she can take 2 times a day but will 'like better' if fed in 3
feedings with the same amount just split over 3 feedings vice 2.

PS: I am not picking on our language there above but if you would
appreciate some tips from a friend who has experienced the same, i will add
a few. Your native language probably has no generic 'male/female'
association to dog so it came over in english. That or it's the fact that
English doenst have one. You referred to the dog as 'it' but in english we
use 'the dog' or 'she'. No biggie as you are perfectly understandable to
all.
