Still the same way you take care of every other dog breed bro. It's no big deal. Just teach basic commands to them at a young age and be strict with the dog. It'd turn out great.

For me, I feed eba with okra soup prepared with fish(mackerel), chicken head and intestines, soya bean powder, ground groundnut (use kuli kuli if it's what you can get), shrimp, little palm oil and vegetable oil, ground egg shells, and then I add binggo kibbles to the food I wanna serve. When making the soup, I usually do not throw away the blood from the fish, I steam to blood with a little water first to form a broth that would be the base for the soup, it attracts them more to eat up. I focus more on their food being proteinous. Then a daily dose of fish oil.

Please do you mix all this together in one serving and can you post a picture of what the meal looks like.

Yes, I add most of the ingredients to the soup, I mash almost everything except the fish and chicken, it's during the mixing process that I now mash the chicken, kibble and fish and mix with the eba which acts as filler. It looks horrible, but trust me, it does way better a job than most commercial dog foods, my female gsd is the biggest female gsd I've seen so far, she's bigger than most males and is bigger than the height for the female gsd breeding standards. I'll try snap what it looks like and send maybe later.

wow, all those you mentioned earlier are to be mixed together?

Nice, Thank you.

Is there any other food or side dish from that
and how much is the kibble?

If you can't afford these things, just buy soya beans and kuli kuli to augment with whatever dish you serve if you can't afford all these things. The dish would obviously contain fish/meat na. I do all these to increase amount of protein in the serving

unlike foreign dogs, ekuke can live fine on leftovers, but if you want a admirable good looking dog I'll advice u go for crushed noodles, popularly known as dog indomie, get that, get dog multivitamin, and get cod liver oil, Walahi ur dog go attract eyes, it's a local dog doesn't mean it should be treated poorly, if you cherish am well you yourself go dey proud of urself.. personally I'd pick a local dog over an Eskimo, even most of our samoyeds are wack .

Kindly collect ur pup once it's 6weeks old if you can... Most ekuke owners neglect the dog, at two weeks the pups are already hosting a sold out concert to worms n ticks, getting the pup early means u get to inject it against worms n ticks early enough for proper growth
