Thats just what i was thiking Debs , India and Harvee at nearly 8 months are still on 3 meals a day :wacko:alfyn said:I can't believe that you are giving an 18 week old puppy just one meal a day (w00t)goodasgold said:Our little girl loves redmills dried biscuit she was introduced to them when she was about 9 Weeks's has never had any kind of upset or the sqirts(how do you pick that up!!!) :x she is now 18 weeks old and along with the biscuits she gets the occasional bit of pasta and tripe or she will have tuna which you have to open the tin outside or she won't leave till she has had some. also we have got her down to 1 meal a day which is also good and is happy to eat around 6.00pm then about 8.00pm she has a walk then she's off to -_- .till about 07.30am.
She should be having at least 3 meals a day at this age!
If you give her all her daily ration in one go,you will put serious pressure on her system !

My vet tried to push Hills too and it made Tess's coat really dry and dandruffy and she was much bouncier when we took her off it.

i can't see the point in dogs leaving two meals a day and only pissing about with the third, I have had my tilly on one meal a day for over a month now and she has put weight on since doing this. I have had working dogs for over 20 years and if anyone would like to criticise my feeding regeme then they are welcome to come and inspect my dogs. My dogs clean there dishes and are a picture of health, and my dogs work for there dinner, they don't sit in front of the fire all day.alfyn said:I can't believe that you are giving an 18 week old puppy just one meal a day (w00t)goodasgold said:Our little girl loves redmills dried biscuit she was introduced to them when she was about 9 Weeks's has never had any kind of upset or the sqirts(how do you pick that up!!!) :x she is now 18 weeks old and along with the biscuits she gets the occasional bit of pasta and tripe or she will have tuna which you have to open the tin outside or she won't leave till she has had some. also we have got her down to 1 meal a day which is also good and is happy to eat around 6.00pm then about 8.00pm she has a walk then she's off to -_- .till about 07.30am.

Fine, if that works for you, other regimes work for other people. I do not think there is just one correct way.alfyn said:Don't lets turn this into a slanging match,eh????Paul,i'm sure you're not suggesting that my dogs sit in front of the fire all day :blink: I know my lot don't "work",but they are well exercised & very fit!
My lot have 2 meals a day,plus a chicken wing,& they all scoff their food without hesitation!
What i'm saying is that their daily ration should be split into 2 or 3 meals,& i think this is where some folks go wrong as they try to give too much over the day,hence the faddy eating brigade!
I have bit of a problem reading this article, my eyes just do not like the colour, so i hope i did not miss something.masta said:
well we had 2 dogs die from separate incidences both only eating a snack bag of raisins and in the last issue of dogs today there are several people warning of their dogs eating raisins/grapes and they are now dead!....so its your decision what you do with the advice...but i dont see the arguement really....your dog isnt going to care if you decide to stop feeding it grapes/raisins from now on is it???masta said:~whitecross whippets~ said:sorry mate but that is not correct...it only takes a small amount once to actually kill a dog!masta said:same as the onion reply lots of foods are upsetting/poison but you would hve to feed large amounts on a very regular basis for them to cause real problemsOEH said:What is wrong with grapes for dogs ?

the 10 cases of raisin/grape "poisoning" in the USA had eaten between 9oz - 2lb and the following statement was made "We recommend that ingestation of large amounts of grapes or raisins should be managed aggressively"
no mention of small amounts killing dogs

from collecting teya and seeing jess after 10 puppies and still in a picture of health i know who's advice i will be following,also i know if there was any problem with teya mally is always there for very trusting advice.
Mally's dogs are a real credit to him as i've seen them work along side him.
your right it is better to be safe than sorry and i feed neither grapes or raisins just that when someone tells me that i should'nt and makes a statement "sorry mate but that is not correct...it only takes a small amount once to actually kill a dog!" i want to understand what a small amount is and if it has been clinically proven, and from my research it seems the only papers written are about the 10 american dogs and their conclusion was to manage the quants not to stop,~whitecross whippets~ said:well we had 2 dogs die from separate incidences both only eating a snack bag of raisins and in the last issue of dogs today there are several people warning of their dogs eating raisins/grapes and they are now dead!....so its your decision what you do with the advice...but i dont see the arguement really....your dog isnt going to care if you decide to stop feeding it grapes/raisins from now on is it???masta said:~whitecross whippets~ said:sorry mate but that is not correct...it only takes a small amount once to actually kill a dog!masta said:same as the onion reply lots of foods are upsetting/poison but you would hve to feed large amounts on a very regular basis for them to cause real problemsOEH said:What is wrong with grapes for dogs ?
