Other than chicken??

[remus]

I think Rocky is getting tired of chicken breast. I give him Salmon once a week, but I think he is slowly getting tired of it.
I made oatmeal with water and he loved it. Is it good for him?

What other meat can I give him thats good for him? Best quality. I stuck to chicken breast because it has least fat and its high in protein.

He also loves to chew on rice cakes that I love, so he joins everytime I crunch away. They are lightly salted. Would salt be bad for him?? even if its minimal amounts. I give him small bites, he gets so protective of them, almost as if its a bone.

Also, is it ok to give him a chicken bone, say a leg. I gave it to him once and he became a lion. Loved it. But I am afraid him swallowing a small peace of bone if he breaks it somehow.

Thanks.

I cook mine lean ground beef with either rice or pasta and veggies

I have a girlfriend who has two Great Danes and she's home cooked for them forever b/c of allergies~ she gets them turkey breast cutlets from Trader Joe's usually.

Layla gets beef, veal, lamb, tuna, salmon. it can be hard to find but you can also feed rabbit or venison.

Sometimes I use ground turkey. It comes in little 1 lb tubs and it is not too expensive.

Ellie only gets small amounts of salt when I give her a bite of what I'm eating. All the salt she needs is in her supplement. They need a certain amount but too much can cause kidney problems.

You can give lean beef, exotic meat or turkey. Turkey is controversial but I see no problem giving it lean (white meat only...no skin).

Beef is one of the biggest allergens, so I don't know if that is a problem for you.

Cottage cheese is okay in small amounts.

Egg is also fine. Ellie has been eating only egg for protein lately.

How do you cook the egg?

I just boil hers but you can scramble with a small amount of olive oil or maybe unslated butter or even make them sunnyside up.

I find boiling easiest because I know they aren't too oily or buttery then.
Eggs can be an allergen (jsut like chicken and beef) though.

She doesn't have a problem with chicken or beef but this will help to add protein to her diet instead of too much Pedigree.
Thanks,

If you want to feed eggs, you could just scramble the egg whites. I make them for myself and Max loves to have the leftovers!

[donnarod]

Have never done just egg whites. Will try it.
I did make Tricksie 1/2 of a boiled egg with peas, carrots and brown rice. She is loving it.
