Thanks I don't feed anything cooked anyway. I have forgot how to put pictures on here now perhaps somebody could jog my memory and I will post some of my lurcher and whippet.Janimal said:Hi Juliarna,,,
Id never fed the raw diet to my previous whippets, but both my recent dogs were on the diet as puppys so I thought I would continue with it.
There is some information in FAQ about raw feeding. :thumbsup:
but... my two get raw chicken wings for breakfast
and raw beef, tripe, chicken, or lamb for tea with Burgess Mixer. They also get large knuckle bones which I get from my butcher occasionally and lamb rib bones, which they make short work of. I also mix raw veggies in with their tea, and they also get sardines and tuna as a change and even trout now and then.
its cooked bones that you shouldnt really feed your dogs, when the bones are raw, they are much easier to digest.
Thanks I use Phot bucket. I will give it a go. Wish me luck I am hopelessJanimal said:You need to resize your photo first - after pressing reply to post, press browse and find your photo file on your pc then upload to K9.
or if you want to post a lot of photos - most of us use www.photobucket.com to store photos and upload to the forum this way by using the IMG code.
Hope this helps as we would love to see some photos of your dogs.

Reply to your post like normal but do not 'Add reply' at this point.
Just underneath the box where you enter your post text you will see a section called 'File Attachments'. In that section there is a button marked 'Browse'. Click on this button and browse your local folders to find the file you want to upload. This file should be .gif or .jpg. Select this file (Open), you will now return to the posting form & you should see the path to your file in the 'File Attacments' area.
Click on 'Add Reply' like normal.
A few points to note....
Files should be smaller than 75kb. If they are larger than this they will take too long for most people to download - 75kb is adequate for almost every photograph. You will not be able to load files bigger than 75kb.
Photgraphs are usually best uploaded as .jpg files.
Gif files only need to be saved at 72dpi.
The picture should be no wider than about 500 pixels - otherwise it will just end up too big on everyones screens.
You cannot see the picture if you 'Preview Post' (because it hasn't been uploaded to the server at that point).
If you do click on 'Preview Post' you will loose the file details from the 'File attachment' box & you will need to 'Browse' for your file again.
When you press 'Add Reply' it will take longer than normal to show the next screen because your picture has to be transfered to the server. Depending on the speed of your modem and the picture size this could take 30-60 seconds.
Using the method above you can only post one picture per post.
The same method can be used to attach Word documents to your post and make them available for download.

i have a friend who breeds italian greyhounds and feeds all her dogs on raw bones and they are fit as fiddles so i wouldn't worry too much about it just so long as the bones you feed them are not of the splintering variety ie:chicken bones,pork bones regards corinnejuliarna said:Hi could I just ask if anybody feeds the raw diet (including bones) to their lurcher/whippets.
