Hi,

Been looking at getting an English bulldog for the last few months and today (my birthday) Iā€™ve been surprised with the arrival of Tino! Our 12 week old Black and Tan boy.

A couple of days in now and heā€™s settled in great! Weā€™ve got him on a raw meat diet and natural treats. I know everyone has different methods but weā€™re trying to stay away from anything with too many chemicals. Heā€™s already letting us know when he needs to go out for the toilet, but sometimes I think he does it in anticipation of receiving a treat. Heā€™s such a relaxed little character. Canā€™t wait to watch him grow.

[MENTION=18066]BigTino[/MENTION], you have a great method! Keep feeding raw n grain free treats and your little ā€œpreset ā€œ will do just fine. More n more people are starting to feed their pets grain free and more n more are going raw. Raw still has a little ways to go as kibbles was always an easier ā€œmethodā€ to feed any pet. When you have the big guns like Purina changing their kibbles towards grain free (theyā€™re still not there yet) says it all. I can guarantee that the Purina dog shows, them owners sure donā€™t feed their show dogs Purina kibbles. All this to say.....keep doing what youā€™re doing! One thing I would add is raw marrow bones cut to the size for Tino. About 3ā€ long n feed it frozen. Great for their teeth n furniture. :)

Thanks for the tip regarding frozen marrow bones Iā€™ll give that a try. Weā€™ve got some cut down deer antlers at the minute that he really seems to enjoy gettin his little teeth into.
