Poppy has always had a love-hate relationship with food. After seeing a holistic vet, we have learned that her appetite is closely linked with her emotional state and past experiences relating to food.
In a nutshell, she has a history of being a fussy eater but we are so glad to have found an alternative and holistic vet practitioner who has been able to help her.
Following our previous post on ZiwiPeak food, I thought we would this time talk about Poppy's relationship with dog bones and her teeth.
Poppy has never liked Dentastix or other types of dental bones. Because of this, last year we spent close to $600 on a good scale + clean at her old vet (for many reasons we have decided to stop seeing this vet, which I will talk more about another time).
We were then recommended to try sun dried kangaroo bones and have never looked back! We think that because they are sun dried, they have bits of jerky effectively left on the bone, that Poppy finds a lot tastier. They are a good size for her too, as lamb shanks were too big and anything smaller ran the risk of splintering. Compared to products like Dentastix, there are no grains, fillers or preservatives either.
So, if you have a fussy dog, we highly recommend these "Triple side brush teeth cleaners" of organic, and raw, human grade kangaroo!
Poppy now has sparkling teeth and loves her weekly chomp on some kangaroo - how aussie for the dog from Belfast.
