What do you add to your dogs Kibble - Page 2

Nothing

momosgarage: thankyou for the yogurt idea! My Mal was a picky eater but is now doing well on his kibble. I add a little parmesan cheese on some days, just a sprinkle to make it interesting. Every other day I also add some tuna packed in water.

I just add warm water to my pups food. I am currently feeding him the Orijen large breed kibble. I do add a small amount of Probios (probiotics) to his food. Wont do this for much longer. I just did it for a week, since I just got him and he is a young pup.

My female Xena, gets Wild Alaskan salmon oil, SeaMeal and Adult vitamin added to her evening meal.

 

A question for those who supplement - will your dogs eat their kibble without all the additions?

My dog would eat the broad side of a battle ship. All of my bulldogs have been like that. So if they refused food i knew we were in big trouble. Payne will happily eat her TOTW Buffalo just fine. But a friend gifted me a 5 lb bag of Missing Link, which with one dog takes a while to go through. And i won a awesome gift basket with a bunch of different flavors of dehydrated foods from Honest Kitchen. And i use a vitamin supplement because one of the top bulldog breeders i know swears by it and he has more OFA Excellent Am Bulldog than just about any other kennel anywhere. And a Corso breeder i know always swears by this stuff. So what the heck! Worth a try you know? And in the past my dogs have never gotten less then OFA Good.
But i have on occasion just put straight kibble in her bowl and it was clean a few minutes later.

Springtime Garlic, Coconut Oil and Kefir that is a given. No longer do Flaxseed or Fishoil since Coconut Oil does a better job than the other two combined.

Other than that, whatever is available. They specifically love baby carrots, water melon, apples, bananas, cucumber etc.

what reasons do you add what u add

Springtime Bug Off Garlic Powder for Tick and Flee Prevention.

Coconut Oil for varius health reasons.

Kefir should be self explanatory. However here is a link to why Kefir is beneficial.

ps: have not had a single tick this year. The cost of Springtime Bug Off is a fraction of what Advantix would cost me for four dogs. All of them are lime negative. For us, it works and I'm a lot out and about with them.

As for veggies and fruit, i just feed what they like and the favorites are baby carrots, cucumber and water melon.

Supak- how are your dogs doing now that you are back, hows the boy?

What is the purpose of floating the kibble in water?  I've never heard of this.
