All of this is better than 1500 pesos a bag!!
Holistic dog feeding
WW
acira, a place where they slaughter animals is called matadero. i believe that people who work there would simply use words like "estomago de vaca"
i think alternative feeding is sensible for people who breed or show their animals. regular owners could just as well run on regular food with occasional treats. as i said our dog east dry food but she also gets leftovers including lettuce and tomatoes. she also eats grass (one specific kind). every time we take her for a walk she gets about a handfull.
And I need a bigger freezer also. Going to check first for the tripe for sure in a slaughterhouse in Santiago, the rest I have to see what they can offer me.
If anyone in the neighberhood has young foals and their hoofs need to be cut, do not throw away the cut offs but let me know. Its a delicatesse for dogs and especially for young pups, soft and very nutricious.
for those who want... I can get you into contact with the distributors of Royal Canin and of all brands of Purina... The last one also sells ProPlan which is one of the better super premium kibbles around (he told me it sold for around 1700 pesos for 40 pounds here)...
As far as I am concerned you have to make a choice... either you give kibble and then you stick to the one brand on which your dogs do well... if you give one of the better brands, there have been plenty of vets who have made a balanced diet... so mixing different brands is not a good idea..
or you give raw... more work, but definitely better... btw, unripe tomatoes are dangerous for a dog (don't remember who said they fed tomatoes...)
Our difficult, allergy-prone dog, is doing perfectly on alican, which we buy at 860 rds for 40 pounds...
Is this contact at Royal Canin still available? I have 2 persians and one exotic shorthair that are used to RC. When I go to Canada I bring some but I don't go often enough to feed them only RC. Please let me know.
Thank you!
Where are you located? I can give you info for Santo Domingo.
