Izzie Corgiosaurus     Barked: Fri May 29, '09 6:09am PST  That site will not report green tripe - only bleached white tripe since the site is geared towards human consumption. And, also, the site reports on vitamins and minerals. Many of the items we feed, we feed for benefits not seen in these types of reporting, such as antioxidants, enzymes, etc. Nevertheless, it is a great site! my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Izzie Corgiosaurus     Barked: Fri May 29, '09 6:03am PST  The real issue between raw and canned tripe is the cooking processes inherent in canning. Likely many of the raw enzymes that are so beneficial in tripe are reduced or annihilated in that process. There are several online suppliers of raw green tripe as well. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Food & Nutrition > Orijen is not good for all breeds as claimed!

Izzie Corgiosaurus     Barked: Wed Apr 15, '09 1:03pm PST  I wouldn't be so quick to discount DNA links to allergies. OP- very true that anomalies exist between the proposed known duration of domestication of dogs (10,000-20,000 yrs) while evolutionary clock studies suggest the two species, dogs and wolves, separated closer to 100,000 bp. When fossil records are taken into account, additional dates exist for canine-esque skulls found in association with human remains much earlier than 100,000 bp. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Izzie Corgiosaurus     Barked: Mon Apr 13, '09 6:28pm PST  What exactly are all these "adaptations to an omnivorous diet in their digestive tract"? Second, humans have evolved over time longer than dogs have evolved from their predecessors, under vastly different circumstances. Third, there are several factors that pertain to humans and their varied diets that aren't as applicable in wild animals, including the innate ability to digest both meat, veg, and grains by nature as omnivores. This is not comparable to a herbivore or carnivore. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Izzie Corgiosaurus     Barked: Mon Apr 13, '09 11:38am PST  FYI Scootaboo, on the variances of dog from wolf: “The domestic dog is an extremely close relative of the gray wolf, differing from it by at most 0.2% of mtDNA sequence.... In comparison, the gray wolf differs from its closest wild relative, the coyote, by about 4% of mitochondrial DNA sequence.” Robert K.

Dog Health > do dogs go camping

Izzie Corgiosaurus     Barked: Wed Apr 8, '09 4:32pm PST  I would be more afraid of the germs and diseases at Petsmart than in the outdoors, but I digress....

Raw Food Diet > Quick Survey- Where did you get most of your info about raw?

Izzie Corgiosaurus     Barked: Sun Mar 29, '09 9:51pm PST  I'm an "anything I can get my hands on" type researcher, if that answers your question. Most things in my life, including the dog's diet is thoroughly researched via any information possible: professional journal articles, non-professional publications, websites, online groups, books, etc! my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]
