Yes they are JRTs (cutest puppehs evar .. but I could be biased) Check out the Dekklet threads...
I do switch up the protein sources. They get chicken, beef and turkey often, as well as elk, pork and bison fairly regularly and then occasionally venison, rabbit, moose etc.
wow. I knew a samoyed once that my mom and dad had when they were married a few years before they had me. Once they had me though, the dog did a complete turn a round and hated kids. One time (when i was about 2 or 3) I went near it I guess it was eating, all I remember though is that I went near him and he bit me in the face. My mom got rid of him after that and gave them to a family that had older children.
Question on the raw meat. Wouldn't that make a dog angry and aggressive? I heard that once a dog got a taste of blood, they were to be put down because you never knew what that dog would do after they have tasted it.
Many sammies are fantastic dogs... its just like any other breed. I have met more human aggressive labs than anything else, but I wouldn't assume that is the norm for the breed. I have JRTs and whippets, both which have some strong steriotypes-JRTs are hyper, nasty out of control dogs and whippets are shy, nervous, flighty, and shakey. NONE of those things are true for well bred dogs of those breeds.
Also ANY undersocialized dog can have resource guarding issues even well bred ones. It is a fairly easy fix with a good trainer or behaviouralist unless the dog actually has a 'problem'
As to the raw. No that is completely untrue
. Otherwise many of the top sport dogs would be vicious, all dogs back before the 40's would have been nasty too. Its very common for top breeders, trainers, conscientious pet owners to feed raw.
Does this look like a child eating JRT to you? My dogs are 'booth' dogs for the breed/rescue booths at large events like the Royal Winter Fair and the Toronto Sportsman show.
if raw mad dogs vicious and bad.. I wouldn't be able to do this..
