Hi Members!
I have a 17week old female Neapolitan Mastiff, currently 25kgs, and I am looking to reach out to any other Neo owners for some advice and/or general feedback on her diet.
Given that she is a giant breed, I want to ensure that each and every meal for her (and treats) count towards her growing well, her overall health and most importantly...her happiness.
I am currently feeding, as main meals, a mixture of:
Blackhawk large breed puppy dry food.
Leading Raw puppy mince (approx 220g individual pouches)
Raw Eggs ( 2 per week)
Greek (plain) yoghurt with Raspberries and Blueberries.
MSM (1 tsp per day as a preventative measure)
Frozen mixed veggies.
For treats, to date I've only used:
yoghurt drops (for training purposes)
Plain pancakes (twice she has had these with no syrup or butter etc)
Raw Brisket bone ( this went straight through her so no more was given)
Plain vanilla ice cream (1 scoop)
Things I've considered, but haven't yet tried do to conflicting information:
Raw chicken feet
Her daily diet looks as follows:
Breakfast
220g Leading Raw mince.
2 cups of Blackhawk kibble.
1/2 cup frozen veg mixed in.
1tsp MSM mixed in.
Lunch
1 Cup Blackhawk Kibble
Greek yogurt blueberries and raspberries as a topper (twice a week)
1 Raw egg (twice a week)
Dinner
220g Leading Raw mince.
2 cups of Blackhawk kibble.
1/2 cup frozen veg mixed in.
No current treats given other than the yogurt drops when training.
I was starting to giver her two mince pouches (440g) of a morning as she seems to finish her meals entirely
All three puppy vet checks have been positive with positive comments towards her shape/figure and overall health.
Feedback on current feeding and potential over feeding have been conflicting.
Any suggestion, feedback (good or bad) will be most welcoming.
Thanks, Wayne and Bonnie
