    A quesadilla, a dollop of ketchup and a piece of toast (one gulp!)..

    These are all things that our six month old can now reach at the table. This mastiff newbie would love to hear what your dinner table policy is - do you train your dog? crate your dog? just never ever leave food out? Please share!!

    Moved inside and appetite has decreased!

    I'm the proud owner of Shakespeare, a 1.5 year old fawn English Mastiff male. In preparation for the winter, he received a de-shedding treatment at Petco and now he's coming inside. He is 100% house trained, just spent the summer in the back yard. After 3 days inside, his behavior is...

    Normal to not eat as much?

    I posted awhile back about Zola being picky with food (mostly my fault as I started adding toppers or wet food with her kibble). I put her breakfast down for 15 mins, and she usually eats about half (so maybe 1 cup) then at dinner she gets left over breakfast plus another 1-2 cups added in...

    carbs in fruits/vegetables? itchy/scratchy

    Hello all, I have been feeding our 1 yr old boy Big Dog Natural (dehydrated raw) for a good six months. IMO, a fantastic, high quality food he really enjoys. Over time, we've noticed his increased scratching and a few small random hot spots, so I have decided to go back to straight beef and...
