Dogs
All about dogs - dog breeds, dog training and behavior, news affecting dog owners or handlers, puppy pics, etc.
Rules (Will be refined later on).
-
Don't be a dick. This should cover most things, just keep in mind that everyone started somewhere and try to be helpful rather than rude or judgmental.
-
No personal attacks based on training style or tools.
Discussion of balanced training including proper use of aversives is allowed here. -
All breeds and mixes are welcome. You can criticize backyard breeding practices but don't pile on people because they own a specific breed or prefer purebreds or mixed breeds.
-
Do not support backyard breeders or puppy mills. Please do not link to or suggest buying from high volume breeders or those with an obvious lack of standards and testing.
-
Do not help or support fake service animals. Please do not encourage people to buy fake service dog vest or ESA letters to get around rental or other restrictions & do not give advice on how to misrepresent a dog as a service or support animal.
I think the owners probably know this, but If they have the means to spoil the ever living shit out of their dog, more power to them. I'd feed my dog snack steaks if I could.
I wonder if the frozen-ness is actually good for them or not. I can't imagine a dog turning its nose up at unfrozen meat.
The frozen stuff can be better for their teeth at least. If they have to chew and work more to eat it, that cleans the teeth better than just wet floppy meats.
Makes perfect sense, thanks!
At least kill off some worms/bacteria if it's been frozen, and not thawing means it can't start getting bacteria growth back on it before its eaten.
It's true. Off cuts and leftovers from the butchers and hunters are "spoils" that bleed the bank dry, but I can't afford fancy tin food like on the TV.
Fortunately, his meals are often free depending on how the day went.
My dog prefers his raw meatballs frozen, but cut up. He will eat them thawed, but after everything else if he's not full.
