QUOTE(Rayne @ Nov 26 2010, 02:16 PM) I don't really know much about flaxseed oil coz I follow the Prey Model. The reason I give fish body oil or feed fish to Scottie is because I want him to have a balance of Omega 3s and Omega 6s. But if you want to feed fish body oil, it should be fine also I think...so far I don't think I've read any cases where the dog gets ill from fish body oil  It depends on the dog whether they will take the capsule as is or you would need to break it. Some dogs will eat the whole capsule, but for Scottie he doesn't like the capsule, so I'll break the capsule and squeeze the oil onto the meat for him. Remember, if you feed fish/flaxseed oil regularly, to supplement it with Vit E, or make sure their regular diet has sufficient vit E. This post has been edited by luffy4688: Dec 7 2010, 10:13 AM

It's good you've done your research before starting your dog on a barf diet. 1 thing that you should always ensure when making a homemade diet is to ensure it is not lacking any minerals or vitamins the dog need. Especially seeing your puppy is a large breed dog and will still grow a lot more, thus he needs all the proper nutrients. What I would advice if you're unsure or not fully confident with the diet you're giving him yet is to supplement his barf meals with a high quality kibble as well. You could say feed the kibble for breakfast, and barf for dinner. Then at least you could be assured he is getting the nutrition he needs for a growing boy.
