Terry's diet

Quick note on Terry’s new diet—we’re two days into it and she has seen an uptick in energy levels and her tummy problems seem to have abated. I’m beginning to wonder if she has an intolerance for corn meal or some other grain in her kibble dog food.

Do you think it would work for me?

Dunno, Pablo. D’ya think you could get down a bowl full of plain yogurt mixed with pumpkin and a raw egg yolk and ground up egg shells? Nevermind gnawing on raw chicken. Ick.

And he’d have to go through the whole bowlful in about 30 seconds.

Yes, speed of consumption seems to be a very important factor!

Except when it comes to the chicken wings and necks. The first time she was presented with them, she was the most perplexed dog. Suddenly it was like a lightbulb going off in her head when she realized she had to really CHEW them. It takes her as long to eat four or five chicken wings/necks as it did to snarf down a couple of pounds of dog food mixed with a liberal amount of water.
