Saint Bernard General Discussions / Re: Champion Gentle Ben dies
« on: July 08, 2005, 08:56:36 am »
jules,
It was indeed tragic about Ben.  But he did pass away in the loving home
of one of his owners.  I am friends with the lady you bought Spotakiss
from  (cute puppy...I seen him when he was little...LOve the name)
I am hoping to get one of Ben's grandchildren in DEc.  if the breeding is
sucessful.  Ben isn't really gone... his spirit will always be in his bloodline.

Food Discussion & Information / homemade dog bisciuts
« on: May 16, 2005, 08:46:49 am »
Hi everyone,
while at this time I don't have a BIG dog myself (my fav-bullmastiff), I do
enjoy making dog bisciuts for my friend's Saint Bernards (she has 10 in
her kennel and 2 in the house, plus a bulldog who thinks she is a saint).
right now the recipe i use is off the cuff, and i try to be as healthy as i
can; however does anyone out there have a recipe for biscuits that has
really good (ie. healthy) ingredients.  i'm using bisciut mix and ground
beef (chuck ...they eat better that me ha!ha!)  i also add eggs and
sometimes oatmeal or corn meal.  they love them (i never have leftovers)
but i would like to make them more healthful.  anybody got any
suggestions??  thanks

I would feed the best dog food that i could afford.  READ THE LABLE!
Quality doesn't come from corn, wheat or oat meal if that is the first
ingredient on the nutrition contents...I always go with meat as the first ingredient. I got really good results with Diamond brand dog food
for large breeds.  I live in canton,ohio, and i don't know if this is a
regional brand or can be found country wide.  A good sign is if you
dog's stool is firm, somewhat dark in color, and dry.  This means they
are getting the most from their food.  If the stool is soft and mushy
and you need papertowels to pick it up...crappy food.  Also the  stool
with good wuality food should be easy to pick up, even withyour
fingers if the need would arise.  thanks for listening,
