Experts are mostly sponsored by commercial dog food manufacturers. They also sponsor vets to hype them.

Jessy's siblings have been feeding on Bingo dry food mixed with JoJo Canned food. They also add Three Crowns Milk, the powdered form. Same thing Jessy was eating when she was still with them.

All I'm seeing in Jessy are muscles while her mates are still having the swollen tummy she came with.

To each his own

Exactly.This is the fact..wat else are we arguing abt

Which puppy milk is good?

i don't want to use the ones made for humans.

u can go to pet stores and ask for puppy milk or u could buy goat milk instead. They help pups digest nutrients better and they cantain protein too.

IamAnderson:
I'm not typing another reply, let it end here, let's not ruin this thread with arguments.
I've said what I said and you know it's true, you're just making me repeat myself.
I don't have anything with home cooked meals, in fact I'm even switching next week.
I replied OP because of the way he put down dog food and if you read my previous comments(which I doubt you are) you'll see that I said a dog on home cooked meals can still do very well.
my point was that a good brand of dog food is still better than a lot of home cooked meals.
It's your choice what you decide to cook for your dog or buy ready made food.
there is still no way you can convince anybody here that indomie and foetus with one egg is better than a plate of royal canine and pedigree wet food with meat on top
there are even several better home made recipes for dog food that you guys ignore that are even more nutritious.
and I referenced multivitamins and dewormers because they also have home made recipes to recreate them but everyone ignore them and buys the ones that the same people you're calling "looking for ways to make profit" made.
I'm sure if dry food was cheaper more people won't be trying to make this argument.
if you really want to convince me you're all for giving your dog good food that's why you don't like dog food then how about you start with buying actual meat and not cow foetus?
even the cow foetus you're buying has been liked to canine infertility and also chicken necks have been linked to canine paralysis but how come it doesn't phase you?
is it because it's cheaper than buying actual meat for your dog?
I'm not trying to antagonize anyone here, OPs dog is doing well and I admire the pup.
I'm just being honest here.
I'm also going to start feeding home made food too but I'm just saying the truth.
I'm not replying the argument again

I just stated that kibble and home cooked meals have their advantages and disadvantages and if op feels home cooked meals are better then no problem as far as it works well for him. I Neva favoured one to the other but its u who did and dats wat am trying to correct.
chicken neck do cause paralysis which is true but are very rare compared to the way kibble cause cancer (mostly wen dogs reaches the senior years)
The truth is dat both kibble and cooked food has their good and bad and u sud stop favouring one to the other. All nutrients gotten from kibble can as well be gotten from home cooked foods depending on what u cook. Adding meat and wet food is actually unfair to dis argument because all these started with op saying he hates giving kibble to his dogs not wet food or meat.
Do u think its cheap to buy a bag and the half of indomie, almost 125kg of meat , 3 crates if eggs,milk,multivitamins etc for a month for just one dog? It is almost d same thing with only a little difference dats if there is any tho.
you keep bringing up vitamins and dewormers, those are drugs bro..its nt a part of this topic cause there are herbal ways to cure malaria but people still take drugs . Unlike food, drugs are more carefully produced.
I know that with u ,this argument would go on and on and on but please just accept the facts and let's move on.

IamAnderson:
if you read all my comments you'll see were I said I meant dog food in general, writing wet and dry food was just unnecessary so I stuck with dry food.
I even talked about adding raw meat and wet food to make a complete dog diet but I guess you didn't read that one too.
and I also talked about usable nutrients in noodles and how what you read on the back of indomie isn't what your dog will digest, just try and compare the poop of a dog fed with indomie to the poop of a dog fed with rice and you'll see the difference.
indomie is not an "easy to digest" healthy meal for dogs so I don't get why Nigerians act like it's so good, the truth is that it's just cheaper.
if you check very well you'll see that it's only Nigerians that feed their dogs large quantity of human noodles and claim their dogs are eating balanced diet.
even if you check online for homemade dog food recipes will you see indomie there?
brown rice>>>>indomie so don't even go there.
and how is watching a show about a vet that treats sick animals a good reference on the statistics of dog cancer?
I mean, you're watching a show where they treat sick dogs so what do you expect to see?
and besides, those dogs you see there aren't all fed exclusively on kibbles so I don't get how you came up with that. do you think white people all feed their dogs kibble? a lot of people feed their dogs homemade meals too so watching a show were sick dogs are being treated and assuming they were all brought up with kibble is very ridiculous.
and dog cancer isn't a very common thing, I'm sure you have never seen a dog with cancer except on Dr pol.
you guys make it look like dog cancer is a sure thing or a very probable thing with dog food fed dogs, it's a lie, the cancer cases are very few and they also affect homemade dog food fed dogs too.

people will rush to buy malaria drugs and rush to buy paracetamol when they are sick and want fast results but when it comes to dog food they'll argue with the people that studied animal nutrition that the one they use guess work to put together at home is better.
or are you only afraid of cancer and question the experts decision when it comes to dog food?
why are you still buying multivitamins, cod liver oil dewormer and the rest when homemade is better?
why do people switch to gorillamax and royal canine when they want show worthy dogs?.
have you allowed any warning about the dangers of processed food stop you from eating processed food daily? or does the cancer warning only apply to dog food?
you get my point Right?
keep the same energy if you're sure you're correct

bro let's stop this back and forth about this issue, read my other comments properly I've just been repeating myself, I've already started derailing the thread let it end here.

U keep generalizing, dogA will be able to digest indomie without any problems while dogB wouldn't digest it the same way.Its not all dogs that get watery poo from eating indomie,it all depends on ur dog. Same with kibble.
When it comes to the cancer case,I think u need to do more research. And yes most of those dogs suffering cancer are fed with kibble. How do I know wat people in the show feed their dogs? because its part of the question asked by the vet. How would u say that Dr pole ain't a good reference! is it mostly cancer a vet hospital is supposed to treat. Just imaging coming to a Human hospital and see that its about 40% of patients that is suffering from diff types of cancer,would definitely know something is wrong. When u use a method called sampling,u would know that these instances could be used to draw conclusions.
Cancer is more common in animals than u think,do ur research. Even on Nairaland, cases of cancerous tumors are seen,You tube, and facebook so don't just assume that i av only seen it on Dr pole...I just gave one reference.Yes,we humans eat processed food but is that all we eat? processed food would make up abt 10% of our meals and some humans still suffer cancer compared to 100% of a dogs meal.
Y are u bringing gorrila max,multivitamins and dewormers into this. Gorilla max is a muscle building food and its not part if this topic. Just like asking me why body builders use steroids and nt just depending on the food they eat and the weight they carry. Multivitamins and dewormers are essentials. Just like asking me y humans take multivitamins and not depending on the vitamins we get in food we eat. I think u drifting from the real arguments.
Look, kibble has its advantages and disadvantages and so does home foods. Most of the so called experts are only looking for more ways to make profit. If the op wishes that home food is the best for his dog,then I agree with him.. I mean just see his dog even looking better than his litter mates.

Will be resuming a full time job soon. I don't want Jessy to be lonely when leave for work. Her sister could keep her company and be play mates with her.

okay then. Its better u go for a puppy from diff parents

newsynews:
Is there any adverse effect in getting puppies from the same litter?

If u mate siblings, the litter usually have behavioural issues

newsynews:
Our Reality Online Show took our camera crew to visit Jessy's remaining siblings.

2 Males and one female left. One of the males is tight as he's always been. Would have gotten him but I don't need a male. I'm eyeing the female, but currently considering cost of care.

The Reality Online Show continues...

...a new housemate cagemate may be unveiled soon.

pls don't get another dog yet. take care of this one first. its like urs is d best out if the whole litter.

IamAnderson:
remember when I said "if you use a good brand" and "when coupled with wet food and meat it's the best"?.
and why are you guys acting like indomie is not a filler on it's own?.
do you really think indomie is such a healthy diet for a human not to talk of a dog?
rice is an even better filler for your dog's meal than indomie.
and if you're reading the back of indomie packet to get the nutritional component of indomie then you're wrong .
the nutrients are there in trace amounts yes but are they digestible?
feed your dog noodles and check it's poop and feed your dog meat and brown rice and check it's poop you'll see the difference .

ooo, so u would still mix the dry food with wet food and meat. It sounded as if u comparing dry food only with cooked food.
how would u call indomie just a filler wen I just mentioned the nutritional contents. If u say 27 grams of carbohydrate, 7 grams of fat, Saturated fat 3 grams,Protein 4 grams to be just trace amounts then we clearly have different definitions of trace.
Since u decided to go to the health risk of indomie, let also talk about the health risk of dry kibble. Most kibble contains high level of acrylamide unlike wet food which have been found to cause cancer in animals. No wonder most of these days, you would be hearing cases of lots of dogs suffering from cancer here and there. You would hadly hear that a street dog suffered cancer unlike those house pampered kibble fed dogs. Watch d incredible doctor pole, u will see lots of cancer cases.

News Flash


The owner of the parents I bought Jessy from just informed me that they still have a female and two males left in the litter. I'm seriously contemplating getting the female.

if u have the financial capability, then go for it

IamAnderson:
all the nutrients in what amount?
can you compare the amount of calcium in an egg shell to bone meal?(which is in commercial dog food) or the protein in meat or the vitamins in vegetables or multivitamins?
we shouldnt be having an argument on whether indomie, foetus and egg is comparable to dog food made by nutritional experts.
its funny how people are putting down commercial dog food now and saying the food they cook at home is better but when they want their dog to look like the ones they see online they'll rush to buy gorilla max .
why dont they ever use the home made meal to bulk up the dog and improve its appearance? lol. lets call a spade a spade please.
eggs shouldn't make up more than 10% of your dog's diet.
eggs are healthy doesn't mean you can feed a dog anything and throw in one egg there and say it's a balanced diet .
please let's not derail the thread, let's move on

okay sha. I get ur point.
am not saying home made food is better than processed food. It actually depends on the type of kibble u feed them. feeding ur dog indomie,meat,milk and eggs is actually better than some types of kibble.
most kibble contains fillers with just small amount of nutrients. okay, let me break it down
feeding indomie,meat,milk and eggs would give ur dog :
1 Meat has about 23 grams per 3 ounces of protein, vitamin B12, zinc, selenium, , niacin, and vitamin Bplus and the extra quality protein gotten from the eggs which is about 5 to 6 grams
2 You would also get some disease fighting nutrients such as lutein and zeaxanthin along with iron, vitamins, minerals
3 Let's not forget the amount of carbohydrate and other micro-nutrients such as , manganese, folate and B vitamins you would get from the noodles.
4  1.6 grams of saturated fat from just eggs alone.
Look,some of this so called kibble might not contain even up to half of this nutrients. What am trying to say is DAT we shouldn't just say kibble is better than home cooked meals because it all depends on the type of kibble and the type of cooked food. Some kibble contains more nutrients than some cooked foods, while some home cooked food contains more nutrients than some types of kibble

newsynews:
I also crush the shells into the food, it provides calcium. She eats everything.

confirm....nice job op.

vincentjk:
I don't think I agree with that, dry food isn't superior to wet/raw food

I know many people on Instagram and Facebook groups who do raw and wet feeds, their dogs have the healthiest and shiniest coat. All that is needed is just for the raw food or meat to be well treated

exactly

IamAnderson:
even if you want to feed your dog homemade food, indomie and foetus isn't in anyway a balanced meal for puppies lol,

op add eggs to his dogs diet. Eggs contains all nurients a dog might need.

Timantech:
Yea

most of the kibble contains soya so u technically still give ur dog soya




am still thinking y ur vet adviced such a thing

Timantech:
So today I invited the vet to check on Max..... He said she doing well and he advised against me giving her soya meal because of the babies......

but do u give ur dog kibble...

jack looking cute

mafiano1986:
Greetings agboede, I have an important question for you, pls at what age did your local mongrel Jack started barking? I need to know this because I just acquired 2 mongrel puppies of 3 months, one has started barking but the other one which looks exactly like your dog Jack has not started barking, the good thing is that he does not play with strangers though also does not like to be touched by them, he avoids them by moving away from them when they come close to him, but he does not growl though, and he is food agressive too but he has not yet started barking, pls answer the question I asked, I need to know, it's very important, don't just read and ignore.

hey, jack started barking the very first day he was brought to me. He was 3 months and I was his first victim....lol. I failed to socialize him properly so the aggression grew and grew till now. He does not have any atom of trust on any strange looking being (humans,cats,chicken, goat,lizard..u name it)which is partly my fault.
My advice for u is to socialize them properly before its too late. Introduce them to strangers regularly at their young age..it helps boost their confidence and prevent fear. And at the right time(maybe 8-10 months) Their protective instinct would kick in. Good luck bro and try to post pictures,let's see ur beautiful dogs.

y are people ashamed to just call their dog a local dog.

Lol...I can't believe its pipe dats restraining ur dog 100% pure tho

needs more food asap!!!

This is just too cute for my liking

sesha needs food... lots and lots of food

DidiLove1:
Those that are saying that this dog is overweight please answer these questions

- what is the universally accepted weight of a male rottweiler?

- when did you guys go to weigh this dog to confirm its weight?

- does being well-fed translate to being overweight in dogs?

it is very obvious that his rott is overweight. The normal weight of a rott should be about 50kg and u can see from the pics that the lovely dog is more than that.
its not compulsory to weigh a dog before knowing its overweight.... just like looking at a fat person and still contemplating if he is fat.
An overweight dog is not a well fed dog but an over fed dog.... there is a difference.

Countrykvng:
op sorry to derail..
what method of deworming works better, Tablets or injections?

both....its just the type of medicine and dosage that matters

IamAnderson:
this your ideology is wrong, dogs poo how they're trained to poo.
naturally a dog doesn't poo where it sleeps or eats, you only worry about potty training your dog if you keep it locked up or chained for too long.
my dog is a Caucasian and he has never peed or pooped in my house since he was gotten.
I started showing him where to do it since he was 4 weeks old and he grew up like that.
now he poos at the backyard and he has never pooped in his kennel also, he is ready to hold it till you free him.
if you let your dogs roam around your compound unrestricted, they'll naturally choose poop spots and avoid their kennels when they want to poop or pee

I had a dog that poos anyhow,steps on his poo and eats his poo when unrestricted. Yes some dogs are DAT dumb. My surprise it that he was a gsd. His name was Murphy. He died untimely tho.
