A Pet is Part of the Family
by David the Dogman
A
Pet is Part of the Family and has the following rights.
- We
have the right to be full members of your family. We thrive on social
interaction, praise, and love.
- We
have the right to stimulation. We need new games, new toys, new
experiences, and new smells to be happy.
- We
have the right to regular exercise. Without it, we could become hyper,
sluggish...or fat.
- We
have the right to have fun. We enjoy acting like clowns now and then;
don't expect us to be predictable all the time.
- We
have the right to quality health care. Please stay good friends with
our vet!
- We
have the right to a good diet. Like some people, we don't know what's
best for us. We depend on you.
- We
have the right not to be rejected because of your expectations that we
be great show dogs, watchdogs, hunters, or baby-sitters.
- We
have the right to receive proper training. Otherwise, our good
relationship could be marred by confusion and strife and we could
become dangerous to ourselves and others.
- We
have the right to guidance and correction based on understanding and
compassion, rather than abuse.
- We
have the right to live with dignity...and to die with dignity when the
time comes.
Commitment,
Firmness, but kindness.

Natural Food for Dogs
and Cats
by David the Dogman
I
have
discovered that when it comes to feeding dogs that many owners are
blinded by myths and misconceptions. Many owners insist that their dogs
are practically human and so should get along fine on the same food
that the rest of the family is eating. The irony here, of course, is
that most human meals are not all that nourishing. What may be healthy
enough and appropriate for humans may be not be suitable for a dog or
cat.
I can understand that many owners will not give their dogs and cats
conventional pet food. For those who are looking for a healthy diet I
offer the following diet, which is on the basis that I have witnessed
sick dogs that have been on steroids and strong drugs scratching and
licking themselves, failing to put on weight that have completely
changed after a few weeks on this diet.
The food has to be naturally fresh, but for food to be fresh and alive
it must not be sterile and neutral in biological form. The food must
not have any chemical contamination or additives.
The first rule of this diet is that no food can be cooked in a
microwave. Bear in mind that dogs and cats are hunters and need fresh
food, and it should be varied and always balanced. Meat and fish should
be served raw but vegetables and cereals should be cooked lightly.
Exercise your pet every day and only give this diet once a day
preferably after exercise in the morning. Cats may have two meals a day.
THE MEAL OF THE DAY
Cook for 2 minutes in boiled water 3 to 4 vegetables (6/800 grams) with
brown rice, or oats, pasta cereals, whole wheat bread.
Raw meat or fish approx.
- 200
grams of beef, stomach, heart, jaw chuck (The least expensive meat)
- Give only horse meat if the dog is to have long periods of
exercise and training.
- Chicken: Heart, stomach, no liver or kidneys.
- Never give your pet pork or pork products.
Every
seventh day no meat or fish, only vegetables with cereals.
Include every day two tablespoons of one of the following: - olive oil,
wheatgerm, cod liver oil, brewers yeast, seaweed, honey (always
natural).
Never give your dog any snacks of sugar, sweets, and chocolates. Raw
fruit or vegetables, raw cereals, nuts (not processed or roasted)
avocado, olive, carrot, apple etc.
Commitment, Firmness, but kindness.
