feeding big dogs

Submitted by Guest on December 3, 2007 - 13:12.

I can't help wondering why anyone who is on a budget would have TWO Pyrenees - feeding them is one thing, but with big dogs, everything costs twice as much - medication, kenneling... I certainly wouldn't recommend it if you are thinking about a dog and already counting the pennies.

When we had our Bernese, before the drought, we used to buy a side of lamb for $2.99 a kilo AU. He used to eat legs of lamb! (now it's $30+ a kilo) Chicken necks, carcasses and wings are good - the small soft bones are very digestible, and they are usually pretty cheap.
