Re: Won't eat raw! 3 days and going!

Many good points have been made. Going back to something the dog WILL eat, and working to gradually introduce him to raw is very good advice.

Also, if you are going to feed ground chicken for any length of time, remember, if you do NOT include the bones, you must then include a bone/mineral supplement. It's MUCH easier to just grind WITH the bones. Other things to try include different pieces and parts of the chicken. If he wont' try backs, try leg quarters or necks or wings or organ meat.

If I am going to fast a dog for any length of time (longer than 24 hours), they get a "power drink" twice a day.

Mix about 2 cups of plain whole milk yoghurt with a raw egg

add:

1 teaspoon Solid Gold Sea Meal supplement
1 tablespoon of raw local honey
1 tablespoon of ground or crushed dried alfalfa leaves
1/2 tsp slippery elm powder
