Guest guest Posted May 4, 2010 Report Share Posted May 4, 2010 My dog, a small Yorkshire eats "Royal Canine" dog food. I don't think she will eat raw meat. But maybe half raw. I'll give it a try. The veterinary advised not to give bones.

A raw diet including edible bone should stimulate the glands while stools are being passed, so they don't clog up ( and you don't have to express them yourself!).

Raw meat and bones keeps everything working and going thru. regardsKirsty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 5, 2010 Report Share Posted May 5, 2010 Start off slowly. The enzymes in the raw meat will cause severe stool breakdown.... you get it, right? Half raw, finally, is good. High fat content meat is good. Fatty, meaty, raw bones are excellent. If you vet nixs this, he is a jerk.  Don't know about royal canine, but look for high mineral content and supplement with added bio source minerals... and lots of MSM powder... as much as you can get down him easily. Your dog will thank you for this even if your vet does not understand it. Arie Alon wrote:  My dog, a small Yorkshire eats "Royal Canine" dog food.

Guest guest Posted May 6, 2010 Report Share Posted May 6, 2010 My dog had this same problem and the veterinarian suggested surgery which I was against. I soon realized that it was his food, grains. I gave him ground raw meat, brown rice, added coconut oil or olive oil, with other herbs, probiotic and the problem has disappeared completely.
