@Nkwkfld:

Chicken is 7kg now and just started lifting his leg to pee

Haha happened recently with Indigo too.

Did Indigo ultimately like the local brew? 

[Oaktavia]

Haha I was just thinking how cool would it be if breweries somehow made a "dog beer" that pups could enjoy. I don't have any idea how silly that might sound but it was a product of a day dream.

Ah, actually looks like they discontinued it. But I have seen various alternatives in UK pubs!

Jax is a great lookin' golden too! What does he have there? I think I see chicken feet in there…we have a local woman who sells dog treats at our local farmer's market. She sells chicken and duck feet, elk antlers, dried fish skins, ram horns, and all kinds of strange things that are really great for dog's health. The booth kind of stinks when its hot outside though, I'll admit. We got a bag of chicken feet for our two goldens last time. Rosie absolutely loves them but Indigo isn't so sure yet.

@Steve and with good taste!

[AdamC]

@Oaktavia puffed chicken feet, rabbit ears and fried chicken feet.  They used to take him an age to eat but now he inhales them! Haha I agree they stink but the excitement he has when that box arrives is priceless

I thought those might have been rabbit ears but wondered about the fur. Does Jax just eat it the whole thing? Interesting…my wife and I will stop by the dog lady's booth on Sunday likely and I'll see what she has this time.

Also an afterthought: do you order yours online? Judging from the box it looks like you might buy in bulk. I bet it's cheaper online than the farmer's market...

Chicken also likes the rabbit ears with fur. The hippy pet shop say its a good natural wormer.

@Steve that picture of Ziggy could be on an iPhone ad.  What stellar colors and composition!

Super neat and super weird love it.

@Aetas what a neat looking dog!!!

@Daniel San my wife plan to raise chickens when we move to West Virginia next year. Love to see the chicken pics.

[AdamC]

@Oaktavia Yep, what @Nkwkfld said. Supposedly a natural wormer.  I was worried it would mean he chases after everything and anything with fur in the woods.  While he did at the start, he has become pretty good at leaving squirrels and rabbits etc.  He wasn't so sure at first but now he loves them!

Yeah we buy in bulk, we don't give him them too often, maybe one from the box a few of times a week as a super treat to reinforce some really good behaviour.

I would much prefer to buy locally but im not sure of any local independents!

@Daniel San very cute pics! I can't wait for Jax to meet our imminent new arrival
