i'm not that expert to list down the positives and negatives of both kibbles and barf i oso in the learning process

I just simply use the google search and found this:

Benefit of BARF

Disadvantage of BARF

U may oso do some online research regarding the BARF Feeding.

As for kibble, i think u can go through this thread

Dear All.. I'm currently just changed the dry food to Brit Care Salmon All Breed for my 2yearold mini schnauzer as the previous brand which make his stool very smelly.
Is this brand any good?
Btw, previously i was feeding him with NutriSource Pure Vita Salmon&Potato...

Added on February 11, 2011, 12:54 pmHi Calvin,

Evo 3kg will be RM72 or 1kg at RM75.... some of the shop will give you a bit of discount as well. You have to deal direct with the shop. Sunway should be selling since they stock almost every brand there. As for wellness I'm not sure.

sorry to hear what happened to your dog. If you really care your dog, please kindly take time and read through this dog food thread from page 1 till the most recent one, you will then know what is good and what is bad for your love one, information are here for you to discover. Send your furkid to vet is the best bet rather than waiting answer from others

I suggest you actually read through some of this thread. I think if you even went through the first couple of pages you would be able to answer some of your question yourself.

Some quick notes anyway:

1. Chicken bones are extremely dangerous for dogs as they splinter and can tear the intestinal lining (as well as any other cooked bones for that matter).
2. Pedigree is a very very very low quality food, if this is the only food in your budget, chicken (without the bones) and rice is actually more nutritious.

3. She could be not eating because a chicken bone has caused her some intestinal damage. If your dog EVER appears weak you should go immediately to the vet for a checkup as a dog will usually show little/no signs of illness unless it is something quite painful/severe.
If the vet doesn't find anything wrong then she is just being picky and you need to stop switching around her food. The best thing to do is choose one decent food brand (not pedigree or alpo) and stick with it.

@AntonioKane - Feeding wet food to a picky dog is not a solution. You are allowing your dog to get away with the behavior rather than teaching them that they must eat what you decide to feed them (as pack leader/surrogate parent/owner). Also wet food is generally not as nutritious as kibble (unless you are talking pedigree/alpo) and also contributes to accelerated tooth decay.

may i know a english springer spaniel should eat wat a????1 months plu only, should eat barf or dry food,what brand??

Do your research:
BARF and Kibble are 2 different diet choices, just like people can choose to be Vegetarian, Vegan or a whole range of other diets. You can't say one is better than another, it is simply personal preference.

I hope by 1month plus you mean 2 months. Never take a puppy from a breeder before 2months. It is a very bad habit of a lot of breeders in this country to try and get puppies out of the house before 2 months old and it is only by owners insisting on not taking the puppy until the safe age of 2months that this will stop.

If you are interested in BARF (or even Home cooked diet) and think you have the time to balance meals and prepare them properly for your dog then i suggest looking up and reading through the appropriate threads. If you want to stick with a kibble diet then read through this thread to get some ideas about what are good foods...

instead of orijen, is there any economical price of food for husky? just want it to be healthy however no so much of cost can spend on it. if use orijen, approx. RM10 per day. ironically, i spend less than RM10 for my food daily..

Wow, RM10 daily, a pack of Orijen is about RM60 over for 2.5kg, 400g per day your husky consume, there are other cheaper option which is good as well, go through this thread and you will some

Some cheaper brands that aren't soooo bad :-

Nutrisource
Nutram
NutriEdge

Better brands that aren't as expensive as Evo or Orijen :-

California Natural
Taste Of The Wild
ACANA
Artemis
Golden Eagle

Brands I personally like and worked really well for my dogs :-

Acana
Artemis
Orijen
California Natural

Brands I don't like :-

PremiumEdge BOTH CAT and DOG
Royal Canin
Golden Eagle CAT (it smelled really herby and unappetizing)

Actually I think BARF is cheaper and better than dog kibble when fed correctly.

who feed wet food??
btw how much is full groomng for chow chow ah?

sorry to say, i have also seen some cases

1. an auntie who is a smoker for all her life can still live at age of 80s

2. an uncle who is addicted to alcohol and drink it like drink water all his life can live at age 70s

So does it means that cigarette and alcohol has no harm to human body?
