Forum Rules
1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect.
2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff.
3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned.
4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited. Please PM a staff member with any questions or concerns regarding this rule.

I have a 10 week old female pup that has been on raw for about a week now. She absolutely loves it! But I have a few concerns/ questions.

My main concern- I've noticed since we've started raw, Mishka has been coughing occasionally. Well its not really coughing, more like clearing her throat. Sometimes she has a small amount of bile. Is this normal?

Secondly, what should I supplement with. I already to coconut oil and I have Apple Cider Vin, but I can't figure out how to get her to eat the Vinegar. She HATES it! Any suggestions?

Thanks!

She might throwing up bile because of the increase in stomach acid from the raw feeding. It could also meat that you are not feeding her often enough. Anya had a slight cough for a couple days when she was around 10 weeks or so. I gave her a tsp of raw honey twice a day and it cleared up right away.

How often are you feeding your pup? Going too long between meals could cause the bile.

How are you currently giving the ACV? Putting a small amount in the water bowl and working up to your desired amount over time is one suggestion.

She's getting fed three times a day plus training treats in between. Going to try the ACV in her water. Thanks!

I've been adding the ACD to her water and things seem much better! We started adding in other proteins yesterday too! She's loving it!
