    How to feed Marrow Bones

    Well we bought the smallest ones we could find. The ones he steals from my family's dogs are bigger so I think he'll be ok. Just didn't know how to feed him. Will the meat on this bone hurt his stomach at all? Thanks for your help!

    How to feed Marrow Bones

    Beef Marrow Soup Bones. I read other threads saying people feed these to their dogs but I just don't know if I'm supposed to thaw them cuz they're frozen or if I have to boil/cook them first cuz they're raw.

    My mom just brought home her 2 mth old Shih Tzu. She's currently on Performatrin Ultra dry food and she's mixing it with hot water. At what age should she stop mixing it with hot water and just feed the kibble?

    How much do I feed? (Can + Dry)

    If Science Diet is such a poor quality food, can anyone recommend a better brand that I can buy in Canada? I'll try switching him but we've tried practically every brand of food there is and he just won't eat it. If you think give it time and he'll eat, you're wrong. He's went without eating...
