  • Dog food

    I know people feed their dogs different diets
    has anyone used any of the ZIWIPEAK DOG FOOD or raw diet good for pups?
    or given their pups raw bones to eat --beef, lamb, chicken, veal, etc?

    what do you think about this

    I feed ZiwiPeak to my Miniature Pinschers, in combination with Stella & Chewy's. They LOVE the ZiwiPeak - it's a great diet in my opinion, and very palatable to dogs. There is a lot of organ meat included in the diet, of which I approve! Downside is that it is a little pricey, and it is higher in fat than most foods (a concern for some dogs).

    I do not feed bones - I've got old ladies and their teeth can't handle them.

      partially raw diet for jesse

      raw lean grounded beef heart processed with collard greens boiled eggs microwaved yam and vitamins and supplements especially calcium

      jesse likes bones and give on rare occasions but it seems to mess her digestion up so i may not do that anymore

      shes happy at dinner time you do worry if they are getting a balanced diet but there are signs they may display with that

      first things first they have to want to eat it then it has to reasonably work with insulin but just adding some things could help if its not working to well

      food can be an adventure

        I did look at this food when searching... And I believe there is a write up where someone posted about their success in switching to the ziwi brands.... I knew I would not be able to keep up with the high price, as well as we travel, so it would be more did More difficult. I also looked at Darwin's really hard as well.
