You are a beautiful soul!! Thank you for loving these animals enough to share!!
Great information and a terrific interview! Thanks, Steve Brown, and Rodney Habib!
Great information, Rodney! Thanks for all you do for pets!
I've been watching all of your videos (and Dr. Karen Beckers), just want to thank you for being the voice of those who can't speak. All 3 of my dogs are on raw ever since the documentary Pet Fooled came out, then I found you. I hope to one day have the honor to meet you and Dr. Karen Becker. You've changed my lifestyle as well as all of my dogs. I thank you for that, and so do my dogs. Thank you. 🐾❤🐾
Great video content! Excuse me for butting in, I would love your initial thoughts. Have you researched - Parlandealey Pets Yummy Process (google it)? It is a good one of a kind guide for discovering healthy recipes for dog food without the hard work. Ive heard some decent things about it and my mate after many years got excellent results with it.
Appreciate Video clip! Forgive me for butting in, I am interested in your opinion. Have you considered - Parlandealey Pets Yummy Process (google it)? It is an awesome one of a kind product for discovering healthy recipes for dog food minus the hard work. Ive heard some extraordinary things about it and my best friend Jordan at last got great results with it.
Many thanks, I been tryin to find out about "what dog food is better than blue buffalo?" for a while now, and I think this has helped. You ever tried - Sonannah Curious Smasher - (search on google ) ? It is an awesome one off product for discovering how to unlock the secret the dog food industry is hiding without the hard work. Ive heard some amazing things about it and my brother in law got amazing results with it.
I’ve been adding tuna, veggies, sm. amounts of animal fat, eggs, and anything else healthy for dogs to his kibble for added taste and nutrition. He loves it.
Your vids are truly the best. Thank you.
Loved your vid on the raw dog food. Incorporated that in our dogs diet and they love it. We feed both raw and kibble so will definitely give this a try also
I love your videos !!!! Thank you so much for your love for these animals!
Great video! Thank you so much!
I feed half kibble half homemade food with a variety of different proteins such as salmon , beef and makrwl
I don’t think it safe to mix kibble and raw bc different of acidic
Thank you for the very useful videos! : )
Thanks really helped!!!!!!
I live on the east coast Canada in the province of New Brunswick and I get herring which is sardines , the lobster fisherman use this for lobster bait so I have a direct source for 20 cents a pound!! I also get all my meat from a butcher for 50 cents a pound, I feed my dogs raw for next to nothing, I have working german shepherd bloodlines and this is the best diet by far!! White teeth, shiny coats , good muscle tone, no allergys, and way way less poop
You are very lucky with your sources!
Thank you 👍👍👍❤️
How much dry do you take away when feeding sardines? We were feeding them and were over feeding our dog and he became overweight.
Thank you
How about for cats how much do we give?
Rodney is this safe to start with puppies? If not, at what age??
If i feed a balanced kibble diet for half a meal for the day and an unbalanced homemade diet the other half meal of the day is that okay or does every meal need to be balanced?
what about the heavy metals, such as mercury, in sea food ?? I doubt this is still ok, neither for us nor for our pets..
My mother cleans and freezes fresh sardines for our dog to use as treats, now i know why he loves them!
And ❤ probably your Mom too!
If a dog is eating grass, what nutrient is he/she missing?
My dogs food already has muscles in it 😏 I also fillet salmon for him regularly
I just wanna add boosters to my kittens kibble!
Wasn't aware of that about even broth and salt added to whole chickens etc they can't have that in they're diet
What if I have a 3.5 lbs yorkie ?
Help rodney! My dog refused eating raw ground and frozen mutton muscle meat I've also tried cooking it he just refused it
thank you for making something for broke ppl
Just a question. I have a GSD and I was wondering can I feed him two types of dog food brands? Both these brand provide different nutrients so I was wondering can I mix them together or give it at a seperate time?
Dry or wet food?
What about for cats?
what are your thoughts of giving milk kefir to dogs and cats?
👍🏼
Does anyone know if they have made a food video for puppies ???
Appreciate video content! Sorry for chiming in, I am interested in your thoughts. Have you heard the talk about - Parlandealey Pets Yummy Process (should be on google have a look)? It is an awesome exclusive product for discovering healthy recipes for dog food without the headache. Ive heard some super things about it and my cousin after a lifetime of fighting got cool results with it.
Kudos for the video content! Apologies for the intrusion, I would love your opinion. Have you heard the talk about - Parlandealey Pets Yummy Process (should be on google have a look)? It is a good one off product for discovering healthy recipes for dog food without the headache. Ive heard some amazing things about it and my cooworker at very last got amazing success with it.
My puppy is on a raw food diet, but he refuses to eat any sardines, sounds like a small can of sardines was too much to include. I haven't tried him on any mussels yet. He will eat a little tuna fish, he really like the salmon meal when he first ate it, now he won't eat that either.
Aww I want to give my German shepherd sardines but she’s 100 lbs. lol
i add tuna dometimes for a treat
how many sardines a week should a 12 lb eat. I feed kibble but want to start adding things
I have a mini dox that absolutely ❤ sardines! I think she could eat a whole tin by herself. LOL
I have a black lab who is 14 years old and she has hip dysplasia, cataracts, and she is deaf. All of her siblings have been gone for years so besides those 3 things she is very healthy. She has trouble walking as her back legs are very week and the one kinda sways to make them slightly cross. But she doesn't seem to be in pain, or at least she doesn't show it and she's not the type who ever showed pain. She has had a bubble on her leg full of blood that needed drained and on both of her ears, the one ear the blood dried up so it's kind of deformed and hard and hurts if you touch it the wrong way, but the other ear that was more recent she had to have drained and she came home with stuff wrapped around her head and that's the only time she's ever showed she was in pain and she was also drugged up. So I just want to put something yummy on top of her food because she doesn't eat as well as she did and I want to make sure it's healthy as well. I know that's a long comment so I don't expect many people to read it. But thank you if you did!
I hope you and your dog are doing well. It's very difficult to watch a loved dog's life decline in quality. I just had to put down my closest canine companion of 9 years just about a month ago. My opinion is near the end of their life, spoil them as much as you want. Chicken nuggets, chicken breast, treats, etc. As long as it doesn't make them sick, it's all in the table. Trying to make them comfortable in the last portion of their life will help you rest assured that you did your best for them before they passed away.
Crimson Legacy she was actually put down March 14th... she could barely walk and was peeing all over, her walking wasn’t good for a while but all of the sudden one day one of her hind legs stopped working and was tripping herself so we decided it was time so she didn’t have to suffer. Still miss her every day but we’ve got her ashes now🖤
@@skyrae8827
Hello Sky, I'm sorry to hear that. I can relate very much to your story. My dog also lost the ability to stand up properly and lost his ability to control when he could go potty. It wasn't his fault and the vet said there was nothing more I could do for him. I also had him cremated and have his ashes sitting right next to me on my bed stand as I type this. Rest assured that you did everything you could for her while she was alive, even until the end. It's a gift that we can give our canine companions to pass away peacefully and quietly without pain or prolonged suffering. Best wishes to you and your family.
@@CrimsonLegacyu fed bad junk food . 9 years old dog is still young
Maybe u fed him bad junk food
@@beautiful20106 hahaha, wow, what an accusation. No, he had a neurodegenerative disease that was purely genetic, but thanks for the unfounded opinion blaming me for my dog's early death. I hope you don't have someone guilt trip you about how you should have done something differently when someone you love dies and you were powerless to stop it.
Do you feed the whole mussle or do you remove the shell?
remove the shell like how we eat it
how much sardine and how often for a 12kg dog ?
brazapride 1 forth a can they said for saradines
I have a question, my dog doesn't stomach this diet very well. What can I do to help him get what he needs and be able to keep it down?
Katarina Stovall every dog is different, though switching your dogs diet too quickly can also play a role in an upset stomach. I'm not an expert, but from what i experienced it's best to slowly move your dog onto a new diet instead of flat out giving them something completely different from what they're used to. My grandmother had accidentally bought my dog the wrong food when we ran out, and when she gave her this new food without mixing it into her old one it completely messed her up. She was having inflammatory problems and all types of stuff. It would've cost us a pretty penny if we didn't wait it out and slowly ease her into a better diet. Just take it slow, and if it still doesn't work try using different things for your pup. Hope this helps 😊
Chicken or chicken bone broth
Does this apply to kittens as well?
I don't think so
how many sardines can you feed a 50 pound dog? I've read that only one a week is good? but im not sure
He has a video with somebody named Steve. He suggested water canned sardines, twice a week, substituting 1/4 of the amount of food. Look for it.
So, if I have a new puppy, 8 weeks old, feeding him kibble, he's a Shih Tzu-- not sure of his weight yet as I don't have him, how much sardines would I give him?
Give him some wet food from Royal canin
I want to add sardines but do they all have salt? I can't find any without salt, or ones that say, "no added salt." Help!
Look up no salt sardines on amazon or uncanned sardines
"Packed in water"
My pet Elina is a cat, what can I add to her diet of commercial food to really up her nutrition & well-being?
Wet food and chicken
Is life force organic coconut oil okay ?
No it has high fat
My concern, would be with the mussels and sardines that there could be a lot of pollution contaminants from the ocean, namely mercury
Right now I add daily to my dogs water bowl (this water by the way is filtered, and alkaline ). one dropper of whole earth and sea deep ocean minerals, this is something I take daily myself to help support essential minerals and trace elements
Then I add to his organic liver treats a tablespoon of Nutra Sea Omega 3 oil he loves this this of course is something I take myself and provides daily requirements of DHA, Epa,ect
My question is I would like to step up his nutrition and I was thinking of taking my vitamin pills like magnesium, vitamin D, zinc, vitamin C, vitamin A, Perhaps grinding them all up and then and then to a water solution of approximately 12 ounces and then also adding this to his water every day maybe two or 3 tablespoons, any thoughts on this from any nutritional based veterinarians.
Thank you
Thor and Samson😎🐶
Well this is for dogs only, /??? I wish I knew this upfront.
I know I'm wrong but I freaking hate dogs
@@waltersobchak7275 "Grrrrrrr."
My dogs hate sardines and won’t eat it
What about cats?
Worth noting that sardines and anchovies are usually fairly high in arsenic.
And salt
I have two frenchbulldog 4 months old I have been trying to find a dog food that is good and with out Breaking the bank around 50 bucks is good can u help I had fed them Blue Buffalo wilderness red meat now I am feeding them instinct raw boost high protein just need help in picking one dog food
miguel serrano miguel serrano try orijen, acana, fromm, Victor, Canadae, merrick, and earthborne. its the somewhat best quality kibble there is. A raw feeder recommended me those kibbles.
Akela or Eden
miguel serrano Try buying your dog kibble somewhere other than the pet store. Costco sells top tier and lower tier kibble. Try farm supply stores, such as Costal Farm and Ranch, Wilco Farm Store, Tractor Supply Store or a similar type of store in your area. Even some of the smaller, independent pet food supply stores may have kibble for a lower price. I have purchased kibble from Big Lots on sale too.
Seriously if you can steer away from kibble your pup is better off. Homemade/fresh so much better! Blue Buf had some problems with glyphosate(think roundup) in their food & lawsuits. Raw can be a great alternative too. Do some research & find what you are comfortable with. I cook for mine and they don't want kibble anymore.
We give ours organic coconut oil and he loves it.
William Griffin yeah coconut oil good for pet
Actually and I believe, Dogs get absolutely zero benefit from ingesting any kind of Oil from a 'Fruit' as Coconut Oil and NEED Oils from Animal Meats/Organs or especially for Omega-3's from Krill Oil ...research it for yourselves. HOWEVER, as a topical for lets say 'dry ears' Coconut Oil is excellent! For marketing and $$$ making purposes Coconut Oil is becoming over hyped for Dogs. Again, research it ;)
Ray Josephs can you take a picture of your coconut oil tub cause i think I may have gotten the wrong one.
It's just pure coconut Oil in 'oil' form...not like lard in a jar that needs to be warmed to luquify. I only use it on my Dogs Ears during the dry winter months.
Ray Josephs isn’t it good for their coat to be shiny?
Potted meat. Vienna sausages. Broth. Bbq. Hood flavor.
Garlic in the sausages.
I wish I was older so I could buy these things
i m going to get sardines for my dog. But what about the salt part?
Veronica Herrera I found a whole bunch of low sodium sardines at the 99¢ Store. I don't think they have them all the time but it's worth checking. They sometimes also have the 14 oz cans on salmon for only 99¢>
I feed my cats raw Duck Eggs and Sardines in Water and they thrive! They get Farmina N+D Grain Free and 4Health Grain Free Canned Cat Food
Where do you get the duck eggs and sardines from?
So add three sardines to the dog food
Can you add sweet potatoes or rice?
Yup. No skin, tho'.
Yes please do! I prefer brown rice. Sweet potato nom-nom.
This is what you do you put the dry dog food in first then you put soft dog food and then the dogwill eat it both
Not my dog.
There are no mussels in supermarkets where I live. :( Can it be purchased online?
Do you have an Aldi by you? They have them.
I feed my german shepherd kibble with pedigree wet food and an egg
Pedigree is horrible
Is this ok also for puppies? I have a 4 month old English Cocker Spaniel and i feed her Acana Heritage Puppy & Junior for medium breed dogs but i want to make her kibble better but i don't know what is ok for her. Can you maybe make a video also for puppies?
Yogurt, sardines, coconut oil.
Sardines! Good for humans, too.
i add carrots, blueberries and apples, sweet potato and even spinach to their food.
thats hardly gonna be a benefit at all.. they are carnivores. Look at their teeth and ask why they have those.
karma police Dogs are right in between omnivores and carnivores. They need a diet that's mainly meat, but they can also eat and benefit from veggies, berries and fruit.
Veronica Herrera I read some info that apples are not good for dogs..
mammie bebz
I did too apples r not goood
Need answers
Thanks
Nj
mammie bebz apples are good. Just not the core/seeds. Apples are a good source of fiber as well as vitamin A and C
My dog would not eat raw mussels, well any kind of mussels. And wont eat sardines either.
But but what about diarrhea? When i change my dogs diet so often his poop becomes out of place
Because his digestive system is not use to it. They must become accustomed to the constant changing. Once they’re accustomed it’s fine. No two meals are alive for my dogs.
Keep doing it and they’re bodies will get use to it.
Added rice mixed in can help with diarrhea.
Norway sells straight fish oil by the bottle. It tastes like shit though
people have the single-food mentality about dogs because dogs were originally a working, objective driven, animal just like a horse. Only until very very recently are some millenials wanting to treat their dogs like human children, striving for a variety in their animals diet. An animal is still an animal, and a working animal, is usually treated and respected as such - consciously or subconsciously. My dogs are all working type and they're in great shape and I all feed them the same large-breed kibble. I do supplement their kibble for the sake of making it better. Raw diet and/or fresh food diet(like honest kitchen base mix + raw or cooked meat) is within my budget, but I am not interested in taking my time to prep for 5 dogs who eat their kibble mixed with omega 3 oil, sometimes added sardines, raw ingredients, and glucosamine supplements all very willingly. A dog is still a dog who was always bred for work and objective simplicity.
Has anyone seen the documentary Pet Fooled?
yes, very scary
Yup, why I feed raw
Yes! It changed my way if thinking forever, even about the foods that I eat!
I have
Raw salmon???? I heard that you should never feed your dog raw salmon? Is that true
It was canned salmon, I believe that is cooked.
sardines not salmon.
Fresh salmon may have Salmonella. My friend had a dog that pulled a salmon out of a stream, ate it, and the dog died, experiencing a lot of pain and bloat. RIP "Lorbus".
Never raw, parasites to say the least. Canned is ok or you could mix up a little "loaf" for it.
FEED RAW MEAT AND VEGGIES
I add Extra Virgin Olive Oil from Israel called
Galilee Green.
2 tablespoons per feeding.
My Old English Mastiff young adult (15 months old) loves it.
He is about 160 pounds now.
He coat has improved greatly since we started using Galilee Green Extra Virgin Olive Oil. check out GalileeGreen.com
Sardines are absolutely terrible for a Dalmatian. High in purines
Peas have purine
These dogs eat better than an average African child xD
My dog eats dayli some meat and her kibble
Start adding some fresh veggies too!
I like the idea of giving my dog sardines in her kibble, but my dog has gotten sick from it. I have tried topping with salmon oil before and she got an upset stomach. She has dry scabby skin and I need to find something that will help her.
Shea Lawhorn if she has dry scabby skin.you must try some essential organic oil for your dog that will help to recover in healthy way..do some research about varieties of oil..hope you will find some better thing
vimal raj Thanks! Since I wrote this, I found Ultra Oil for Pets that she does great on. It is made up basically of hempseed, sardine and anchovy oils. I'm so glad she doesn't get sick from this! Still waiting to see if it works for her skin.
Shea Lawhorn how is this working for your dog? My 8lb Chihuahua is like that as well and I've taken her to vet and theyre the dumbest people on Earth telling me to switch her food to nutro lamb wholesome essentials I went and researched each and every dog foods content for Omega 3 and 6 and found wellness whitefish, salmon meal, and peas small bites. Problem is she barely eats it unless I put coconut oil in it and it gets tiring doing this all the time. I had been giving her gnc naturals skin and coat with omegas, but no turn out there..
The best thing you can do is switch to a 8020 prey diet raw. Do research and you will understand why. Dogs need protein ,fats,calcium and minerals. 80 % raw meat 10% organs liver gizzards kidneys. 10% meaty bones. Chicken lamb pork. Once a week put in tin of deadlines or mackerel in water not oils. Job done healthy dog great teeth great coat small stools happy healthy dog
Sorry deadlines should say sardines
I wonder how much to give a 6lb yorkie? Anyone?!

Bonnie Burton thank you so much!
It's insane to think some animals are getting better food then humans in poor countrys.
What if your dog gags when he smells fish 🤣 I can’t even give him fish flavored kibble 🤦♀️
if you really care about your pets, feed raw.
so if I don't do this then I don't care for my pet?
Chris Vandernaald can you read? I said if you really care. Not if you care.
karma police
Sometimes raw dog food costs too much money.
Dusk Howl not if you buy at the smart places! For me its cheaper than buying kibble like Acana
karma police
In my area bones cost the most, especially if you buy in bulk. If you feed raw food with multiple food choices per day, it’s gonna cost you a lot. But, in your area it could be cheaper to buy.
NOTHING makes pet food "better". My dog turns his nose up at it if it has that "dog food smell". I mix real food and it comes out cheaper and safer than anything in a can, or bag. I don't have to worry about contamination recalls, either, or too much saturated fat in his diet. He gets some, but it's not like that gooey lardy stuff in the cans. He hates it no matter what topper I use to hide it. And he's not royalty, he's just a mutt with a great nose for quality food. I've tried all the tricks, and when I do, I get that look, "What are you trying to pull, human?"
I just feed them meat.... It's all about meat!
How about don’t feed your dog kibble, and he will live a long and happy life. Solved. If you really care about your dogs health you’ll feed him raw and put aside your penny pinching, disgust for slimy meat, and ignorance about the “dangers” of raw meat (hint: there is none, dogs come from wolves, what do ya think wolves eat?? Not grilled chicken breast)
Elle Beckaide | Um...people can still feed their dog kibble and still REALLY care about their dogs health. Some people don’t have the time or money to transition their dog to raw. Your dog can still be super healthy on a kibble diet. Maybe the super cheap, crappy kibble isn’t good but a descent heathy kibble is fine. For me on the other hand I truly want to transition my dog to raw but I can’t because I’m only 13 and don’t have the money to do that and my parents aren’t gonna do it but I do feed my dog high quality kibble which was Acana™️ but now we recently changed to Nulo™️ and my dog is happy and healthy.
