willy wonka mate. Noel is very informative. He and some other forum members advised me of what to do with greyhounds when I first started and they helped me get a few wins with my dog.

hello all, im back again. my bitch is about 6 months old now and doing well. i went to a well known pet store the other day and spoke with a man who recommended feeding my greyhound advance dry food. he said it has all the nutriion and vitamins a young greyhound needs. i have been feeding raw meat, with vegtables ect and with some not so expensive dry food. she has been doing well on it, i think anyhow. He explained to me that because i only have one dog that i should feed this dry food at 110 bucks a bag (cost is not a worry to me). he said that people with more than one dog often feed meat ect, just to keep costs down.
what is everyones opinion on this?
thanks again

whippee, forget the dry food, Stick with the raw meat. It has all the protiens that you need for growing pups. Yeah sure add a bit of the dry food with it for the little extra vitamins but the meat is important.
If I was a produce store and wanted to make a good profit I too would suggest the $110 bag as well. I have one dog and there is no way I would feed him completely dry food no matter what it costs, but thats me. I want the best for him and thats why I feed him Raw beef with added vitamins to make sure he gets the right amount of everything he needs.

Thats my opinion.

We feed the dogs 20-30kg red meat mixed with 10-20kg chicken mince and about 12-15 loaves of bread. Throw it all in the tub add a good amount of water and mix it all together so its a kind of slop i guess then feed about a pot or 2 full to each pup. It gives everything needed at this age. Make sure you give them alot. If you come back and they have eaten it all then give them a bit more. The more they eat the better

I should also add we boil up a big pot of veggies for the race dogs and once they are cooked we drain out most of the water from that into the pups food. That has plenty of nutrients in it
