Thanks Shellie! The Oma's is expensive, but I thought I'd try it to start as I having a hard time watching Bogard swallow down whole chicken wings, and when I hold them to try to slow him down he breaks them in 2 and gulps the bone shards....whic
h makes me a little nervous about poking his insides or possible trouble passing them. But from what I've read, the bones (and actually breaking down and eating the bones) is a huge part of the BARF diet.
So I tried quarters thinking he'd chew slower and he bites off the knobs at the end of the thigh bone and swallows those whole!! They just look big for him to digest.....but that is normal, right??!?
The crazy thing is this whole raw switch isn't about Bogard (he loves the food and is sooo much happier eating) it's about my issues with the new foods.
Thanks for the "how much" info too - that is about what I've been giving him. I want to keep him lean and a bit skinny while he's in his growth period. He's almost 5 months and only about 45lbs.
