Lurcher = greyhound x deerhound x collie, 17 weeks atm about 29'' to shoulder.

Is this a diet to start slowly with or just get in there?

you should always introduce a new diet gradually, the dog will be more likely to accept it. also some dogs will get the runs if u change there diet to quick.

It's up to you whether you do a 'gradual' switch or a 'straight' switch, several years ago when I swapped my own dogs onto this way of feeding I did a straight switch, as mine are not fussy eaters at all and their 'stool' were real sloppy, smelly and the rest, so it was not an issue for me

You know your own dogs and sure you'll decide which way your gonna go, but do whatever your happy with

Not sure size of the rats etc that your getting......I've not fed mine these, so it may be a lil trial and error.....unless your gonna start measuring body weight and going that route........try 2 or 3 rats and just see how it goes etc .....depends what size you get also

Thanks for the reply. His stools are varied, some sloppy, some not.

We have since reading about this given him some raw, and he just loves it, so am going to have to find cheap suppliers I think. Will be great when he is working though.

The rats I just found interesting really as it's a food source I have here.

Many people think this way of feeding is expensive..........I get salmon fish heads at 25p each, rabbits £1 each, chicken carcusses £2.50 for a box of approx 100, green unwashed tripe 20p each......I could go on but as you see it's FAR from expensive........and a MUCH BETTER diet in my opinion

mine costs me the petrol to Pimps every couple of months. A lot cheaper than tins of food everyday.
