We've had our girl for almost 10 months now and she's gone from being a greedy little minx to a fussy ******.
We're at least her 4th home in her life - all we know is that she has spent some time in kennels and when we first got her she ate as though she never knew when she'd get her next feed.
She's put on weight nicely although I wouldn't have said she was too skinny when we got her.
We've always fed her on raw chicken wings or sardines in the morning and then natures menu raw mince for dinner.
She used to scoff it but gradually she's gone off the minces and will only eat the tripe or beef ones now and won't touch the chicken, lamb, turkey or rabbit once - she used to like them all.
She's also not as keen on her chicken any more and has taken to hiding them in her bed rather than eating them. She does however still scoff tuna/sardines/mackrel and loves a nice raw egg.
She will eat liver but only if it's cooked. Is happy to eat dry food or tinned food (we keep tins of chappie in case we run out of raw).
Due to the cost of the tinned fish and the wasted chicken wings I feel as though we are wasting money so want to find a better diet for her.
I'm also not sure if the tripe and beef offers enough variety for her so looking for ideas on what to feed her to make sure she gets a well balanced diet but it doesn't cost the earth!
