Our Babs packs it away doesn't she at 4.4%!
Interesting how they all vary, just goes to prove that a guide is literally just a guide!

the vets were not concerned about barley weight even though when he had his jabs he had gained 3kg over the year, he is down to around 40kg now but still has to loose a little more until i am happy with him, i prefer him to be lean rather than a little chunky, with barley he is on restricted walks at the moment so his kibble has been cut down again and he is on 250g of kibble a day

Amber gets 2.5% on average meal, Holly nearer 3.5% and she still looks skinny (not that she needs to be fatter, although some would tell you she did) They are both good weights now though so I am happy I am getting there quantities roughly right. Here was tonight's dinner! AMBER: Lamb's Heart, Pig Belly Strips and coconut oil HOLLY: Chicken drumstick & coconut oil WILSON: Chicken drumstick & coconut oil I got them some new bowls too

Oscar can get on average anywhere from 250g to over 500g per day!!!! I don't weigh stuff but usually he gets around 300-350g most days. The days that he may have up to 500g would be pig trotter days or mega bone days and they aren't too often. I've started getting very sloppy with my addition of coconut oil and the weight is creeping back up again so I may start reminding myself to add it every day! I genuinely love coconut oil!

Tonight my two had the rest of the beef mince, along with some beef Honeys mince. Tomorrow will hopefully be a bit more exciting as my NI order is coming!

Tea tonight was: Lamb necks, a little bit of liver and some coconut oil. The lamb necks were served frozen, which was new for both dogs, but they coped very well!

Were they NI necks? Just being curious as I have ordered a few!
Still have some dry and wet food left but now the dogs are having normal mutt food am and raw pm, easing them in gently. They are having Natures menu minces in evenings for now.

Yep, they were. The one in the red bowl was slightly bigger weight wise, although the one in the blue bowl looks bigger.
Will you be moving them over fully once you get the NI order or are you waiting until the dry and wet is finished?

I think I will wait for dry to finish I am finishing the big bag of dry and then I will move them over. I am going to keep the two small bags of Applaws for holiday later in the year. I am not worrying about using the wet tins either as they can be used if I make mistakes and get upset bellies or can be used on the holidays. I also have a test bag of the fishmongers dry, plan to use that for training treats and treats on walks

That sounds like a good plan to me. Oh, good idea on the fishmongers dry. I never got round to trying that one, lol.

For dinner tonight was: AMBER: Beef Heart, Fish, Liver & Veggie Cubes HOLLY: Fish Tail (that Amber ended up eating because she didn't like it so she got beef mince instead!) WILSON: Fish & Puppy Nuggets It was a little on the frozen side, not that they cared - it cooled them down as it has been sooooo hot here today!!! Pic to follow
