Ben when younger he was on Eukanuba puppy with scrambled egg.

He is now on Eukanuba Adult Maintenance.

Its a dry feed chicken based. I give him a 3rd / 1/2 a tin of Butchers, chicken, liver, rabbit whatever to give him a little extra flavour. Sometimes some hot water which turn into a little gravy.

His coat is really shiny and his teeth are always ok when he goes to the vet, and has no problems with energy when required. So far after 4 years all seems to be pretty good feeding wise.

Our 12 week old newfie was fed on a raw diet b4 coming home.

When we got her the breeder gave us a large bag of dried food which she ate for the first couple of days (in the morning i fed her scrambled eggs).

On the third day she refused to eat it and so I bought some pedigree chum puppy and mixed it in, she ate it well but an hour later was running around crazy, I then remembered Kirsty had said it can make them hyper.

I then bought steak mince from tesco and mixed it in the food processor with carrot cod liver oil and some cabbage, she ate this for a couple of days and then again stopped eating. I then tried minced turkey and lamb and this time didnt mix it, she loved it but wouldnt go back to the beef.

She now eats prize choice turkey, tripe, lamb and I give her chicken wings and frozen lamb chops too (from tesco or asda). She still likes her eggs in the morning, or sometimes a little porridge. I dont have a lot of freezer space so I get the prize choice packs on a weekly basis, I get them from pets at home in coatbridge they are around 77p per 400g.

I am keeping an eye on the second hand section of the cumbernauld news to pick up a freezer, when I do I will order the raw meats from the club.

Right now Bonnie is feeding on me, my leg when I walk, my arm when I brush her, my trousers when I'm drying my hair, my shoes when I step over her etc.................etc..........................etc.......................

She is thriving on it, her teeth are clean, bits of fluff,trouser and skin aside.

Her coat is shiny but if she still has it by Sunday I will be surprised !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
