The big ones can but it is better to feed them sugary stuff.

somchai eats Jer High normally, and sometimes biscuits with liver on the top.



he is a fussy bugger though.

Yer onto it,...that's great dog tucker.

Ants and cockroaches eat anything but I believe the above to have some truth to it, however rice and meat soup alone is not enough protein for a healthy dog and Maggi is all salt.. Find him/her some fresh meat scraps from a butcher, not the prime cuts but the scraps, no preservatives or additives in that..

I see that NR beat me to it above, I knew I shouldn't have replied this late in ..

Do they have scraps in Thailand, they seem to have a recipe for everything?

Chicken Tendons, Crispy Fish Bowel, how would they know what you mean when you say "scraps"?



I can imagine it.

"Do you have any scraps?".
"What dem?"
"The bits of the animal you don't eat".
:Blink:

Fuck me, the ants ate through a sealed bag of bread yesterday. Today I put my port in a zip lock bag, they ate through that as well.

This is a good photo

They have been eating through packets and bags at my house too, everything is in plastic tubs and boxes now. Not altogether convenient to be honest.

Don't know about ants and dog food. but our fish was becoming a bit
difficult to feed.
The missus started to put dog food into the aquarium.
The fish was happy for a while and started to get fussy again.
Back to fish feed and still happy!

Yeah.
The dogs, like domestic cats or fowl, will almost always consume everything you throw at them - conditioned survival instinct.

What they will eat & what is good for them are two entirely different matters. I've never found a dog that doesn't like Bailey's or chocolate. Should that be their diet? Leftovers and rice? well, if you want a malnourished dog, carry on. At least the Leo will keep them from complaining

Exactly NR, dogs need a balanced diet.

Meat is the real food, for humans and dogs.

Dogs in the wild will normally make a kill only about once a week, gorge on that for a day then chew on the skin, gristle and bones until lean and hungry enough to hunt again.

Dogs must eat offal, too, liver, kidneys, guts, the stomach contents of the herbivores they'd normally kill.
So grains are actually part of their diet.

They'll eat anything else, too, including herbage, fruit etc, even wood.
Dogs will eat grass when they're sick, usually when infested by worm or when they have bowel infections.

Whatever diet your dog's on, the worst thing you can do is let it get fat, a totally unnatural state for a dog to be in.

My puppy goes bananas for bananas. WTF is all that about?

A lot of dogs like fruit and/or veg. My Jack Russell loves veggies. You should see her after a roast dinner - polishes off the broccoli, cauliflower, potatoes, carrots, anything. Dogs actually can use some veggies in their diets, so if they like it, great. Just be careful of too many bananas, they're very high in potassium.
