    RAW to kibble

    I do a mix of DIY and Nature's menu. nature's menu are about £3.50 per bag ( about a day's worth) and I wouldn't even like to know what I spend on the rest - wings, ribs, minces, tripe, fish, necks etc etc

    RAW to kibble

    Thank you. They get two meals a day so I was thinking one meal raw and one kibble? That would still cut costs. They love wings, ribs etc so I would like them to still get them now and then. I can get a bag of wings for £1.50-£2 so they aren't too much of a financial burden lol

    Whippet question

    Ah whippets. A breed I would never ever have considered...then quite by chance I wound up with my little boy....then my little girl followed and I don't think I would stray from them as a breed. Friendly, gentle, affectionate, entertaining. They are a delight. Mine are allowed on the sofa...

    getting a second dog

    I agree...I find 2 easier! When my little whippet boy ended up on his own I got a little bitch to keep him company and they get on great....I have always found all dogs, or a dog and bitch get on better than more than one bitch together but every dog is different!
