Do you cook the ground beef at all or just serve it raw?
I read this post yesterday and found myself thinking of Dixie today. She is a beautiful dog. Hoping she stays with you a long while.
Sorry to be slow...just getting on line now.
I buy it from butcher who grinds his own meat daily...sometimes it is twice ground, others like for tacos just once, and it much larger pieces...I throw in other leftover veggies, rice, etc. and make tiny “meatballs” ( about the size of my melon scoop) I freeze all but the next days food and thaw 4 or 5 overnight for morning food and again at lunch time for late dinner.
I do put it on top of some commercial dry food and he does eat a few pieces of that too...often goes back after a few minutes and finishes it. I started with 3 pieces and he seemed to be begging every time I went into the kitchen...
He is a very large boned shih tsu, not fat but 25-7 pounds.
Maybe not purebred as stated? Vet said some are just bigger. He was largest of the litter and initially called HUGO. Face and markings are perfect!
Good luck!
Not sure I made it clear...raw!
