Feeding question
12 Answers
Right, our rescue Lucky (or hop along cassidy) was fed by her previous owner on mainly liver with table scraps thrown in and crap fed to her by the kids.
Speaking to my out laws who are former dog breeders, feeding a dog a lot of liver and not a regular varied diet can damage the dogs ability to absorb nutrients from there food.
We are struggling to get her to eat what we feed our other dog even with soaking it (gundog dry food) she is still not gaining weight.
Any help appreciated!!

Drinking is fine etc. May have to put her onto proper wet food as if given dog meat from a can she cant get enough especially if well mushed! The only thing is mr f will have to be convinced she needs wet food. Our neighbours get hearts etc from the local butcher cheap so may get her some and give it to her and see how she goes. Potatoes, especially jackets with skin on are her favourite thing to attack so daintily she holds it in her front paws then peels the skin back where as our lab just looks at them and is like huh?! is this food??? Its not in a bowl and not peeled no ta lol. Thank you guys, I am waiting to here how she is today but judging from a video taken last night the leg looks betterx
