im so jealous!! i wish our meat market was as friendly here. i cant even FIND mine!! LOL!

so i THINK its 1tbs of ground up egg shell (mortar and pestle works well too) to each pound of meat. i would strongly urge you(her) to feed whole meat instead of ground for dental reasons.

some easier to eat bones for smaller dogs (and cats too) are chicken breast, necks wings and backs, fish bones are also quite easy to chew up. see if you cant get your hands on chicken feet too. you can substitute chicken for any of the SMALLER game birds such as corning game hens, smaller ducks... im not sure how big pheasant is. turkey is too big though. most of the rest of the bones (maybe not fresh pigs feet??) will be too hard.

im sure i will have more for you tomorrow!
