ah ,,,thanks...

the food I make is the raw diet primarily -raw meats & bones,,,for example= ground turkey (hate that I have to buy it from grocery-working on this) a mix of vegetables & legumes run through food processor, pro biotics- garlic powder-algae-nutritional
yeast-lecithin-kelp-vitC-vitE-omega oil-olive oil-yogurt,,,,,made into patties and freeze,,,,,I change the meat to add variety, sometimes its fish.
he also gets a beef short rib bone-turkey necks-chicken backs to supplement his calcium.

HEY, You want to come cook for our 4 teenage boys? Looks like this would be great for them and my dogs. Maybe you could start selling some of your dogfood to offset the costs :dunno:

thanks for this,,,,,and no question about the commitment part.

its just almost more than a person can bear when you start looking at rescue sites and read about these fur babies and how much trauma they suffer as a result of human stupidity and heartless actions....the look in the eyes of an animal in a shelter cage.........it just kills ya!
Every time I've been to a dog shelter, I've come home with a dog. :bang:

TCline: as far as I'm concerned its a dream come true having a house full of labs. seriously. yes, there will be added work because bathing one can break a back. you may have a good bathing shower that will help with that one. but, they are just so wonderful to have in your life.

I have heard someone talk about having more than 2 dogs and how they exhibit pack like behavior, and belong more to themselves than to you. but not sure that is a drawback. I like the thought of dogs having and being friends with one another, sharing their lucky lives with siblings, etc. the only thing I would think about doing is making sure they are trained very well to make them easier to manage as a group as well as individually.

yes, its a dream come true and you are my role model.

oh you guys are so sweet!....you are giving me the confidence to go ahead and adopt!! I know I could give them a great life and this owner had to give up b-c of work changes,,,,so sad huh?....although I would rather live in my truck & a tent than give up my babies.

yes you can!

You've already made up your mind to adopt these dogs...you're looking for justification.
