he is a majestic little beast

Hi friends, i need some advice on how much honest kitchen to feed Lola. I tried the recommended 2 cups (dry) per day (with added water of course) for 50lb dog, but she was pooping like crazy! Like middle of the night 4th poops crazy. She had been a once a day pooper her whole life. So i...

i'm commenting because i also want advice on a similar issue. Our rescue (we've had for 2.5 years) sleeps with us but wakes up at the @$$ CRACK OF DAWN. Like old lady time she wakes up at 4 am and wants BREAKFAST. we can get her to go back to sleep until 5 but with daylight savings coming up...

how adventurous! my pups would never jump in the dryer

Lola is a very picky eater and i've resorted to hand feeding her at times (she is 6 1/2 now). With her attitude and her allergies, we've moved through lots of really great kibbles, freeze dried foods, jerky like kibbles, all the exotic proteins. Her best run was on NVI raw frozen pellets...

Dear Cheryl i am so so so sorry for your loss. he was part of our family here and your heartache is felt by all of us. through your love Vegas thrived, and we all learned so much. please know you are in our thoughts and we'll be holding ours tight tonight.

aren't we all??? (getting wider) :sarcastic:

LOL i would have loved to get something like this at work!! i get pics of lola hunching over though which i realize is pretty ridiculous as i typed that out

we keep at 65 in the winter and 72-74 in the summer. we tend to spend time in our finished basement which seems to have nicer temp control than the second floor which is usually hot. I would say no hotter than 75 for bulldogs in the summer and certainly no sudden temp changes that will be hard...

our little old lady gets 1/2 cup of kibble twice daily...plus sweet potato fries as treats. using the frozen green beans will help fill your pups tummy while cutting back. plus they're not mushy and it will take some time to chew 'em up

sweet vegas. We see many of these symptoms when Foxy's ear infection rears its ugly head. She has really really deep canals and the infection never really goes away despite our best efforts of cleaning daily (sometimes twice). Twice a year she'll start by shivering in bed (in pain) and her...

herbsmith has literally turned Fox into a new pup! no more eyeball tumor becoming inflamed and popping out, no more rectal polyp sightings or bleeding, no more incontinence. We used to use fortiflora but herbsmith less expensive and extremely effective at 1 or two per day.

mmmmm....mackerel

at least a foot and two with the drift here in boston. my pups are not liking it...and its weird to have to shovel the backyard...but we do it!

to ease the itchies you can use chlorhexidine shampoo or wipes. but i think a food change is needed as well. it sometimes can take a few tries to get the food right for each bully. i think thats also an underestimate. one protein food. one of mine is on raw, the other on limited ingredient...
