Would You Feed Your Dog a Raw Egg and Other Tips from Baggins' Bites March 06, 2007 |
| Dear Fellow Dog Lover, March ’07 Welcome to Baggins’ Bites the fr*e monthly ezine that features pet tips, dog treat recipes and much more.
Happy March! Spring is nearly here in the Eastern U.S. and I am very happy about that! Baggins loves the snow but I’m a summertime girl myself.
Feed Your Dog a Raw Egg and Other Good for You Kitchen IngredientsYour kitchen is full of healthy items for Fido! Don't overlook what's under your nose!
Here are 3 quick and easy kitchen items you can add to your pet’s meal to improve his health and make his heart and coat super healthy.
1. Olive oil—dribble a little over his kibble a tsp. or tablespoon will do (use your dog’s size as guide).
2. Fish oil –I give Baggins salmon oil pills and he eats them like treats. Not only is the salmon oil full of good fats for his coat and his insides --it’s also good for his heart and joints—and it’s an anti-inflammatory to help with his arthritis. Omega 3’s are found in fatty fish like salmon and are great for both you and your pet.
You can get convenient and easy-to-feed supplements or a liquid to pour over your pet’s food at your local pet store or order here from Only Natural Pet store a great resource for natural pet solutions Grizzly Salmon Oil 16 oz. Pump
3.Broken egg over his kibble—You can even feed the shell, it’s loaded with calcium and dogs like the crunchiness.
Reader's WriteA reader recently wrote and asked me for a recipe for her dog who has chronic kidney failure.Unfortunately, my initial research didn’t turn up with much and I haven’t any experience with this topic.
I did come across the following book which was well-recommended from several different experts Home-Prepared Dog & Cat Diets: the Healthful Alternative I will continue to research and will share whatever I find. Maybe there are readers out there who have more experience with this and would like to share. If so, you can contact me by hitting reply and sending in your experiences and/or recipes and I’ll post them in the next issue of Baggins’ Bites.
