Souds like she's having a good variety Mel - have you tried her with raw eggs? Piper's diet sounds similar to Ruby - mainly chicken wings or beef/lamb ribs for breakfast then homecooked or raw meat in the evening with veg/fruit and mixer, sardines in oil once or twice a week and she likes the a raw egg - shell too  ;D

I was thinking about trying her with a raw egg,I just feel she's missing out as she isn't getting any bones

Ah... I see... am sure Kiz or Val (or someone else) will know better than me... but I wouldn't have thought the big bones would damage her teeth... they don't damage dogs teeth normally do they  ???  Or am I wrong?  :-\

It will help them not damage them, just start slow with a dog of her age that is not used to bones.
In all my life (Thats a lot of dogs) I have only ever had one damaged tooth caused by a bone, that was Eshia she split a tooth and had to have it removed.
I have had a lot of gummy pekes that love bones some could only gum them but they were happy and thats what it's all about

She is having chicken wings,and breast of lamb bones,but as she only has teeth in the front,she cannot manage to eat the bone,but boy she won't leave any meat on the bone ;D

Spud has had bones for a good few weeks now (he's 7 months old now) and we've never had any teeth problems.  He just can't get enough of them  ;)  Now Murph, he's a different story  ::)  he'd rather be doing something other than eating  ::)

nipped into Selfridges again today... bought more stuff for Fritz  :D
Today i got some mutton, some chicken gizzards (whatever they are  ???  :D ) and some chicken hearts

So... thought they could go in his porridge mix... could all 3 go in or would they be best in seperate batches?


Suz.. would Honey like me to save her some? (the meat bit I mean.. wouldn't want to give her anything to make her itch  ;))
