WIthout salt an organism cannot survive! Simple fact.

Crush my dogs renal and adrenal systems As if! Its hot around here, she probably NEEDS the salt!

For flavour or scent, consider salmon oil, coconut oil, codliver oil, a bit of butter (either for a quick flash-fry, or just plain raw) and wind it down as your dog gets used to the blander scent and flavour of the meat. We've also made things 'more appetizing' for Bodhi by adding powdered freeze-dried liver. You can get freeze-dried liver treats at the pet store, and those can be ground into powder.
These are good tips though Finally something intelligent from somebody around here. She loves olive oil by the way... Butter she seems to care less for. I was trying to order some salmon oil but they were out of stock due to salmon shortages

As far as basing the nutritional requirements of that of humans onto that of dogs... Let me ask you this... Are humans supposed to be eating grain either? No... Especially not bread (gluten) A few raw rolled oats aint gonna cause much problem for a dog. There's people who would argue a high protien diet like the prey model is bad for their kidneys. Bottom line is nobody really knows what the **** to feed a dog - they can live on just about anything, just like we can... I mean look around at what most people eat these days... Bread, Pasta, Cereal etc GLUTEN is the primary component of most peoples diet... People seem to survive on that. Yeah -- my dog eats better than most humans do. LoL

She's been eating her meals fine lately. Her allergies have gone away by the way, she's stopped shedding, and shes gotten more active and her toungue looks a very healthy rosy colour now, I'd say I'm not doin too bad, as for you folks well... I'm afraid you weren't much help. If merlin is a respected member around here then I'm outta here.

Peace!
