Puppies are definitely getting bigger…I can see muscle mass developing in Charlie’s hind legs, and Lizzie looks to be increasing weight as well. The food we’re making definitely looks to be helping.
We’ve been supplementing the chicken gizzard/liver/heart meal Kelly made with pumpkins from our garden. On top of two types beans, peas, squash, and zucchini from our garden, they’re getting the majority of vitamins and minerals their little body needs to develop. However, we are giving them vitamin/mineral supplements in order to round out their diet.
Kelly was at the natural pet food store near our house looking at vitamin and mineral supplements. She got excited to see that we can give flax, pumpkin seed, dandelions (leaves and root), burdock root and leaves, etc. ots of stuff we can gather, and dry next year, even chickweed! and we can give them human joint supplements in smaller doses to help their little joints get stronger.
And guess who loves tomatoes and cucumbers!!!!! Charlie! He destroyed a small tomato just now. And they were both gnawing on cucumbers for a while til they got distracted.
