is it NOT ok for me to feed my dogs wellness?
I recently bought this wellness dog food “Old Mother Hubbard Wellness Super5Mix Lamb”
these are the ingredients:
Lamb, Menhaden Fish Meal, Oatmeal, Ground Barley, Ground Brown Rice, Rye Flour, Tomato Pomace, Canola Oil (preserved with mixed tocopherols, a natural source of vitamin E), Salmon Meal, Rice Bran (from brown rice), Tomatoes (natural source of Lycopene), Ground Millet, Natural Lamb Flavor, Flaxseed, Carrots, Spinach, Sweet Potatoes, Apples, Blueberries, Dicalcium Phosphate, Calcium Carbonate, Potassium Chloride.
My question is this, last night I posted a question and someone told me that WELLNESS isn’t supposed to be the only food fed to a dog – because it is pure meat and no vegetables??
Is that true? I don’t really see wild dogs eating too many salads these days! Heh! I’m not sure – but I wouldn’t have switched to a 60 dollar brand of dog food if I knew that it had to be supplimented with something else? …thanks for any insight!!
I didn’t realize that feeding my dog quality food was me falling for a sales pitch?? Weird!!
Where can I find out what breed my dog is?
I don’t want to take her to a vet or anything, but I think that my dog is a mixed breed and I would like to find out what she is. She is very short, abour a food and a half tall, round, pointy ears and very silky, straight black fur. Do you know what breeds she is, or where I can find out?
my dog keeps burying bully sticks and doesn’t get chance to chew them?
this sounds kind of retarded but it’s just a little issue.
my newly adopted legit stray dog [we picked her up from the streets] loves bully sticks. the problem here is that she chews wonderfully away at it when there’s someone she knows nearby. but once she’s alone, she buries it. i’m aware that she did it before as a survival skill although honestly i’m not sure if she ever finds her buried food. it’s really annoying because the point of giving dogs a bully stick is for them to have something to do when they’re alone. she’s an outside dog, btw. & i know why dogs bury bones. that’s not my question.
i’ve thought about tying it down with a string or something but it doesn’t seem feasible and yes, she might choke. any ideas, tips?
the problem is: i give her the bully stick because none of us can be with her at the moment. we leave, she buries it, and is left once again with nothing to do. it’s a huge waste of money, too.
with this issue, there is no point in giving her a bully stick because she can’t enjoy it! and i don’t think she digs them back up, either.
How do I get my dog’s attention when we are outside?
I have a very independent 8 month year old pup that has come a long way in training but still has issues with listening to me. He is great at paying attention inside but tends to only listen in general when he has something to gain like a treat! He’s smart! 
The problem with being outside is that it is a bigger reward to him than food even. I’ve been practicing watch me but he just never listens to me…just sniffs around and digs up my plants! Any ideas on what I can do?
