Merry Christmas from Ancient Dogues
Hoping you and your fur kids have a Merry Christmas.

Home Made Moist Dog Food
I make something like a home made, moist dog food. When you mix it in their regular dry food they will finish it right up.
- in a roasting pan
- 4 eggs (shells and all, the calcium is good for them)
- 1 packet of plain knox brand gelatine
(supposedly it is good for the joints, I have never confirmed this)
- wheat germ - 1cup
- plain oatmeal - 2cups
- fresh grated garlic - 2 or 3 cloves
- a small bunch of parsley chopped
(parsley cleans the kidneys and keeps them healthy and functioning well)
- 4 pounds of ground turkey or chicken (I prefer to use turkey)
- Mix it all up, it is similar to a meatloaf. Add water, less will make it firmer, more will make it loose like canned food.
- Roast until cooked.

- If you have a dog that needs to gain some weight you can add 3 cups of a high calorie cereal like Total or Vector to the mixture

Bordeaux Family Picture
Look at this family picture. That is a beautiful family.
I came across these pictures on an photo sharing site and thought the pups with the white boots were so unusual looking. You almost never see that because breeders like to keep the white on the feet within the breed standard, but it does happen occasionally.
Isn't he cute with thoughs white boots though.  :)

Sweet Picture
This is a sweet picture I had to share. I believe that is the Daddy with his little girl. This pic is from the same photo sharing site as the last one.
