Health and Diet

 

I’m a huge fan of the natural approach to dog care. I’ve fed my own dogs on a natural diet (largely raw meaty bones) for many years now. I’m also a supporter of minimal (preferably zero) vaccines - I lost a dog from an adverse reaction to an (unnecessary) booster a few years ago. You’ll find lots of excellent info about both of these issues at:

Canine Health Concern

 

Another great site for info on natural dog feeding is: Raw Meaty Bones

 

Feeding naturally keeps your dog free of chemicals, colourings and grains (which dogs are not designed to eat) found in processed pet foods. Raw food is  great for keeping teeth clean and can help with some behaviour problems too.

 

Here are some pictures of my dogs having their regular meal of  raw chicken wings - they love them!

 

I recommend “The Dog’s Dinner Revisited” by Ann Ridyard £12.99 as a great introduction to natural dog feeding.
