Rhino's Breakfast Of Champions

As many of you know I truly enjoy cooking. I also enjoy cooking for my 2 dog's.

I have never been one to cook and create meals from recipes. I have watched the occasional cooking show while running on the treadmill but that is really the extent of my exposure to any idea's in creating my own recipes. I never really write anything down either, and often I just cook from memory of the previous dish I made. But it got me thinking, why not share my recipes with other people when it comes to cooking for my dogs. In my earlier blogs I talk about the importance of Omega fish oils and Pro biotics for your dogs, and because I already give my dog both pills every day, I don't add any fish oils like cod liver or salmon oils to my recipes, but by all means please add them if you are not using omega fish oils or pro biotics in your dog's home made prepared meals or kibble. Here is what you will need. 650 grams of Ground Beef, 3 Cups of plain Oatmeal, 3 Eggs, hard boiled diced up, 1/2 Cup of raw Carrots finely chopped or grated 1/2 Cup Peas Thawed From Frozen and 1 Cup of Low Fat Cottage Cheese. Cook the ground beef in a pot till its lightly browned and slightly still pink in center. Prepare oatmeal according to packaging I like to buy Organic Oatmeal but you can use any kind of oatmeal so long as it is plan with out sugar additives. Boil 3 eggs. Stir and mix together the beef, oatmeal, eggs, carrots, peas and cottage cheese and serve. You can add 1 tsp of cod liver oil if you want to make sure your dog is getting it's omega fish oils if you are not giving them an Omega 3 vitamin. I hope you like this recipe and that your dog's enjoy it as much as mine do! I like using Cottage cheese not only in my own diet but as well for my dogs. Cottage cheese is high in protein and is known to have benefits for fat and weight loss. Studies have shown that higher protein consumption was related to increased fat loss in women.

I love Cottage cheese and it is a great alternative to fattier proteins such as meats. Cottage cheese is not only rich in protein, but it also provides amino acids that your body uses to build muscle and other tissue. Cottage cheese is rich in calcium. If your dog is on a diet, and he tends to get hungry at night or before bed time, there are other benefits of cottage cheese. Eating cottage cheese before bed can be helpful for controlling your appetite. This is because cottage cheese contains a type of protein called casein, which your body digests at a slower rate than other types of protein. According to research published in the March 2011 edition of "The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition," casein is more filling than other types of protein, such as whey, a popular protein supplement. Because of the slow digestion and high level of satiety, cottage cheese may keep you from getting hungry during the night and encourage you to eat less in the morning. I discovered within the first week of us bringing home Rhino, our now 12 week old German Shepherd puppy, and brother of Remy that he loves hard boiled eggs. I like to eat 3 hard boiled eggs every morning, but I only eat the egg white's and throw the yolks out. Well a few weeks ago I thought rather than waste the yolk, why not see if my dog's will eat it and like it. They absolutely love egg yolks! Eggs are a great source of protein and fat and low fat for dogs. So then I decided to get creative and made up a breakfast meal for my dogs using the egg yolk's from my morning breakfast. Eggs can be a good source of protein, and is a great early morning meal, so why not fuel your dog's as well with eggs for breakfast! Now as I mentioned earlier I buy most of my ingredients in Organic. But Organic can become costly. However when it comes to Eggs this is one place where buying organic can make a big difference. If you're trying to improve your diet and eat more responsibly, make the switch from commercially produced eggs and reap the benefits of organic eggs. It's an easy way to make your kitchen a healthier place in the new year. Pasture-raised organic hens produce eggs that have 2/3 more vitamin A, three times more vitamin E, seven times more beta carotene and twice the omega-3 fatty acids compared to commercially produced eggs, according to a study conducted by "Mother Earth News" and reported in the October/November 2007 issue. Make the switch to organic eggs, and you could more than double the nutritional value you get when you eat an egg.

Eggs are little protein powerhouses that tend to get a bad rap because they're high in cholesterol, but organic eggs tend to have 1/3 less cholesterol than commercially raised eggs, according to "Mother Earth News," making them a healthier choice. Even better: Organic eggs have 1/4 less saturated fat than commercially raised eggs, according to the "Mother Earth News" study. Reducing the amount of cholesterol and saturated fat in your everyday diet can decrease your risk of cardiovascular problems, including heart disease. Fewer Toxins Eggs that come from chickens who've been fed organic food are less likely to have pesticide residue than commercially produced eggs. Trace amounts of pesticides can be particularly hazardous for children and pregnant women, so if you're feeding people in those two categories, organic eggs may be a good choice. Eggs from organic chickens also come without added hormones or antibiotics, which some commercial farmers may use to treat poultry to increase their production. When tasters compared the flavors of organic eggs and commercially produced eggs, they noticed that organic eggs had a stronger flavor and color.

I love carrots and thankfully my teething puppies love crunching on Carrots. Carrots contain more than 490 phytochemicals (plant, or fruit derived chemical compounds). Beta-carotene is one of the most antioxidants in the carrot, and helps the immune system to target and destroy cancer cells in the body. It also prevents DNA variation and fat oxidation, and protects cells against free radicals. The carrot contains calcium, potassium, vitamin B and C. Calcium helps prevent the narrowing of the blood vessels resulting from contracting of the muscular wall of the vessels. Potassium promotes regular heartbeat. Vitamin B improves metabolism. Vitamin C protects cells against free radicals and strengthens blood vessel walls. Vitamin A in carrot is important in vision; a deficiency in vitamin A will inhibit the reformation of rhodopsin and lead to night blindness. It also improves coughing and high blood pressure. Enough sun exposure everyday helps vitamin A take effect. .  

In the morning's I usually have hard boiled eggs and Organic Oatmeal. There are so many benefits of Oatmeal in the morning. I buy most of my foods and ingredients in an Organic version. However, Organic and non-organic rolled oats have the same nutritional facts. They both contain equal amounts of vitamins, minerals, fiber and antioxidants and are particularly high in B vitamins, phosphorus and iron. In 1 cup of cooked oats, there are approximately 150 calories, 6 g of protein and 4 g of fiber. Besides price, the difference between organic rolled oats and their conventional opponent is what is not found in organic oats; intense chemicals, additives or genetic modifications. Organically grown oats are produced using organic farming methods such as crop rotation, green manure fertilizers and natural pest control like predation, instead of synthetic chemicals and fertilizers. In order to be labeled organic, rolled oats must meet the minimum standards established by the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

How We Picked Our German Shepherd Puppy

If you are anything like my husband and I, you have a special place in your heart and soul for dogs. Being a dog fan, the likely hood of also being fans of The Dog Whisper is probably pretty good.

Several months ago we watched a really good episode on the Dog Whisper on "How To Pick the Right Puppy for Your Family". My husband and I had been wanting to have a family dog for a few years. How ever both our lives were too busy between our career's, travel, and my husband going back to University, and so we felt it wasn't fair to bring a dog into our home until our lives slowed down a bit. I decided to take some time off from my career, which finally allowed us more time to be home, so we began our search for a family dog. In Oct 2011, we added our first addition to our family. Remy who is now 9 months old, is a pure bred German Shepherd and even more recently we decided to get a second dog. Remy's brother who is from a second litter of the same parents of Remy. Rhino is only 12 weeks old, our dogs are exactly 6 months apart. Both our dogs have very different personalities. Remy the older pup is sweet, gentle and very laid back and well mannered with a very easy going high tolerance personality. Rhino on the other hand is fiesty, high energy and non stop action with him. Remy is relaxed confident and so laid back.

Rhino will steal anything he can get his little paws on, we have to watch him like a hawk. Rhino wants to be involved in all the action, and Remy wants to participate in all the hugs and kisses. Both dogs bring us so much joy, and go every where with us. We did a lot of back ground work before we got both our dogs. First off in deciding what type of dogs to get for our family, we made a list of what was most important in a breed. We wanted a good family pet, with high intelligence. We live on a large acreage where we tend to get packs of coyotes and other wild life, so we wanted a good protective guard dog as well. We enjoy the outdoors and we wanted a dog that would enjoy being outdoors with us. We have an active life where we like to go for long walks and jogs every day. We also had interest in working in the Search and Rescue Volunteer program in our city. We live in Canada where we can get wonderful warm summers, but also very cold winters. So we wanted a dog that could handle both extreme climates. Once we were ready to bring a new family member into our household we understood what was required to become responsible dog owners - and were prepared to do it.

So we began the process of choosing a dog breed that would suit our lifestyle, personality and requirements. We realized that this is an important long term decision for our family and anyone we live with. It certainly pays to put in some research to ensure we reached the right decision in getting both our German Shepherds who have brought us so much joy. I think it is important to visualize the type of dog you picture yourself living with for the next 15 years as the dog's breed is just one of the many factors you need to consider. I get so upset when I see add's on public selling sites like Kijji where some one has to get rid of their dog that is now too big for their 1 bedroom condo. Or a family who surrenders their dog to a rescue foundation because their dog is destructive in their home. Which as a responsible dog owner we know that it is not the dog, it is the owner who is at fault when dogs miss behave. I also see time over time people who with little confidence and lack of character get a stronger dominate breed of dog like a Pit Bull, or Rotti or a Doberman or even a German Shepherd and the dog becomes a potential risk to the family and the neighbourhood. Some people simply do not have the experience or Alpha in them to be owners of more dominate dogs and end up getting rid of their dogs because they can't handle the dog. This is not fair to the dog, and often these dogs are bounced around shelters and foster homes. We picked the German Shepherd because first off we love the breed, we love their high working drive, we love how wonderful they are with children, and how protective they are of their home. They make great volunteer dogs, in which we would like to volunteer as a family with the SARS program in our community. They are highly intelligent, and if selected right, from a good breeder, with parents who have good temperments I believe German Shepherds are one of the best family dogs in the world. They are brave, very smart, and incrediably loyal.

Now breed is certainly important and I don't disagree with that. But there are other just as crucial criteria in order to determine what type of dog you will share your life with. Do your research in where you purchase your dog from - always buy from a conscientious and reputable dog breeder if possible. Before we brought both our dogs home we spent time with the litter, it is important to spend time with the litter making sure you know which puppy to choose out of the litter. You want a puppy that suits your family energy in the home. If you are a fast paced athletic on the go family you don't want a laid back low energy dog who tires easily. It is also important to consider the puppies socialization prior to you bringing the dog home. A good breeder will play with the puppies giving them attention and affection ensuring they have human contact daily so that the dog transitions well into your family.

When we brought both our puppies home we put them both through Puppy Classes. Obedience Training is very important no matter how much experience you have with dogs. You want your dog to learn things like household etiquette, leash training and the basic obedience commands l like sit, stay, come, down etc... We all want our dogs to be happy balanced dogs. When applying all the crucial criteria, everything comes together to determine the health, well-being, character and behavior habits of your dog. When choosing a dog breed it's a good idea to talk with people who have first hand experience with the breed you are interested in. Your local veterinarian, dog breeders and obedience trainers are a valuable source of information. Also if you visit any dog shows you can talk with the owners of just about any breed - this will make the picture clearer for you. There are some things that potential dog owners need to consider as well. What size of dog breed do you favor? Size does matter but it doesn't necessarily mean that a big dog needs a big yard and a small dog breed is suited to apartment living. Some large breeds like the docile Greyhound are perfectly suited and easy to manage in a smallish yard. Can you handle a dog that sheds heavily? Almost all dogs shed to some degree but some like Golden Retrievers, Pugs and Dalmations are shedding machines! Unless you are prepared to allocate some dog grooming time each day you may be better off with a breed that sheds minimally. Is it important that your dog is good with children? Do some research to discover which dog breeds are best for children - there's lots of great options.

How important is it for your dog to be well trained? Some breeds are more suited, willing and capable if you plan to get involved in advanced obedience training - does this apply to you? Will your dog be living with other animals and dogs? Many breeds find it difficult to happily coexist with other animals, while there are some dogs that love the company of others. What energy level should your dog have? Do you long for a dog who lounges around on the couch with you or one who continually drops a ball at your feet looking for a game? It's important for the human-dog relationship that you share a similar level of energy to your dog. Please note that energy level comes down to each individual dog rather than by breed. Is affordability an issue for you? Think not only of the initial purchase price but also feeding, grooming and health care - with some dogs the list goes on and on?

Do you want a dog who will guard you and your possessions or one that may just "sound the alarm" and act as a watchdog? Is it likely that your lifestyle, commitments or requirements will change drastically in the next 12-15 years? Choosing a dog breed is an important long term decision - it pays to look ahead for the well being of the dog. Will your dog be left home alone for long periods? Many dog breeds (such as Golden Retrievers and Chihuahuas) suffer badly from separation anxiety if left alone and bored for long periods. If your career demands a lot of your time you'll need to consider your choice of breed carefully - you may even want to reconsider your decision to get a dog at all. Will your dog be an inside dog, an outside dog or a bit of both? Some breeds are simply not suited to being kept outside and it's not fair to enforce this upon them. Will your climate present any problems to your chosen breed? Dogs that were bred for specific purposes and in one part of the world will often find it hard to climatize into other areas. Does the breed you are interested in have any breed specific health problems? Again this is just a matter of doing some research and talking to people who would know. Do you have a secure and large enough property to safely confine your dog? We live on an acreage so we have the luxury of being able to give our dog's lots of space to run and play. But we also take the time to walk our dogs daily for socialization at the dog park. Puppy proofing your home checklist. How much and what kind of exercise are you prepared to give on a daily basis? This is an important one, if you are not prepared to properly exercise your dog the dog's energy will come out in other, destructive ways. Some dogs don't require much exercise at all - they'd rather curl up with you on the couch. Will you be able to get your chosen breed in your area? It's no good falling in love with a certain breed only to find out that you cannot source a puppy in your area. What is your level of experience with dogs? Some dog breeds are not recommended for first time dog owners - they will walk all over you!

What was the breed originally bred for? Many breeds still retain the strong drives and instincts which they were bred for. For this reason if you enjoy having a nice and tidy flower garden you may want to avoid some of the terrier breeds (they love to dig!). Do you suffer from any dog related allergies? Hypoallergenic dog breeds such as Poodles, Bichon Frise and the Bedlington Terrier have a decreased tendency to cause allergic reactions. The above questions are designed to make the process of choosing a dog breed a clear and straight forward process - if answered truthfully! As soon as your new dog arrives home that is the time when your hard work begins. You will be responsible for shaping his/her character and behavior habits and helping him to thrive in our human society.

The Life Of Remy Campbell

So here's my story. I am a pure bred German Shepherd. I just turned 9 months old, and I feel like a man already but my parents still treat me like a boy, I guess I have lots to prove to them before they think of me as a man. I'm a really just a simple guy. I'm single, and looking for my one true love but I’m still young and I don’t think I’m ready to jump into anything serious right now. I definitely want a family of my own one day but for now I’m quite happy being a bachelor exploring this big world.

I don't need much, water, food , exercise and a good nap here and there and the occasional massage. I do have a particular stomach digestive problem, so I may come across a bit picky but I don't do well with grains, soy, corn or wheat. It's not my fault; apparently my Dr told my parents that it's quite common for German Shepherds to be allergic to certain foods. My parents love me so much they feed me a special delicious different breakfast every morning; my diet consists of a rotation of lamb, bison, elk, venison, chicken and my favorite rabbit. I also graze a little in the late afternoon on my favourite tasty chicken neck bones. I use to have this really bad habit which I was able to quit with the help and support of my parents. I have been clean and sober from picking up rocks for over 5 months now. I really love my parents, but I have a very special and unique connection with my human big sister. When ever I see her I can't help myself I get so overwhelmed with excitement I tend to talk too much. But oh boy do I ever love her, she give's me so much attention, and when it snow's she makes these huge snow mountains and lets me pounce on them and eat the snow. I love her so much. She give's me the best treats too, in fact she gives me a few more extra treats than my parents do, she is very generous. My parents are sticklers for manners so I went to school to learn good manners. I know the commands, sit, stay, down, shake a paw and come. Although sometimes when I don't want play time to end, I pretend not to hear my parents call me. I call it the Mexican standoff, I sit and wait and stare at them while they call out my name, I see how long I can prolong going home from the dog park till they come after me. I tend to be a little bit of a flirt with the ladies. I have a thing for brunettes. But when I meet Mrs Remy Campbell, I will always be very loyal to her. I'm a loyal guy and I would do anything for my family. I know I’m still a young, but I’ve figured out a few things on my own, for example when I shake hands with humans I get a lot of awesome treats. I like to play rough with the bigger rougher dogs, but I certainly know how to be gentle. I'm more of a lover than a fighter, however if you dare try to hurt my family or come to our house uninvited I won’t hesitate to sound off the dog alarm and I may even kick your butt. Apparently my bark is pretty intimidating. I already had a close encounter with a van load of humans who wanted to hand my parents some kind of reading material about God, and I think the people said they were Jehovah Witnesses. I don't know what that means but I didn’t let them out of their car until my parents came outside and asked the people nicely to leave our property.

I’ve had a few run In's with this dog like animals which I do not like them at all. When I see them I run them off the property by charging at them and barking really loud. My mom yells at them and I’ve heard her call them coyotes a few times when she tells my dad how proud of me she is for scaring them away. As I was saying I'm a lover not a fighter, and I have no enemies, I tend to believe in the philosophies of a Buddhist’s. I love going to the off leash Cochrane Dog Park for at least a full hour. Some people have accused me of having OCD. However I believe I just have a really high working drive where I am very focused on the ball. I have my very own FACEBOOK PAGE my full name is Remy Campbell, and I live in Alberta Canada. I hope you like my page, and share your stories and ideas about things you enjoy with your family. I’m always looking for good new raw food recipes and if you know a new trick please tell me all about it!

I personally love blueberries and my step daughter eats them by the carton. The thing is, we all know how good blueberries are for us. The base for all of the blueberries health benefits are in fact that they are extremely rich in Antioxidants. Antioxidants are very important to our body because they help support overall health and immune system. Blueberries will boost your dogs Immune System.

The antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties of blueberries build a protective layer around the brain to fight the signs of aging and deterioration.

What's Good For Us Is Good For Our Pet's

My husband and I take an Omega Fish oil every day. There are so many proven medical health benefits to taking fish oils. So when we brought home our 2 German Shepherd puppies I started doing research on dogs, their diets, and of course important vitamins for dogs. In my research I found that there are similar benefits for dogs as there are for humans in taking fish oils. We give our dog's 1 Omega Fish oil pill a day. Most dogs like fish so it's easy to just pour the liquid into their mouths. I simply tell them it's vitamin time, and they walk over to me and sit right away as I drop the liquid right onto their tongues!

When we are at the dog park we often get compliments on our dog's coats and people ask what we feed them, or how often we groom them. The thing is we take our dog's to the groomers every 3 months to get cleaned up. But their hair, soft coat, oily skin and bright eye's are all a result of giving our dog's fish oil daily. German Shepherds are prone to bad dander and Eczema and problematic skin and shedding. By supplementing their diet with fish oils we have managed to reduce their shedding, and given them nice shiny coats. Here are the Benefits of Fish Oil for Dogs. Some of the conditions or disorders that positively react to fish oil for dogs are things like allergies and autoimmune conditions. Specially, many skin conditions are a due to the lack of Omega 3. EPA can reduce damage to the tissue that lines the joint surface (cartilage) by decreasing the activity of enzymes in arthritis. EPA (from fish oil) shown to be key for healthy joint cartilage. Studies have shown that different Inflammatory disorders like, ulcerative colitis, inflammatory bowel disease, and rheumatoid arthritis may respond to the anti-inflammatory effects of Omega 3 essential fatty acids. When a dog has dull dry hair or coat it's usually a result of diet and lack of Omega 3.

Omega 3 gives your dog better skin, and a beautiful coat. Some yeast infections in the skin and ears of dogs and cats are a direct result of no omega 3 in their diet. The lack of Omega 3 in a dog's diet can also contribute to cardiovascular problems like sudden cardiac death or arrhythmias, blood clots and hypertension. High triglycerides. This is one of the conditions that best react to fish oil for dogs. It is important when cooking for your dog, or feeding them a dry pet food that you feed a high omega 6 diet. Much like human's we know that with our Cholesterol profile, HDL cholesterol (good cholesterol) rises with fish oil for humans, and it provides the exact same benefits for dogs, providing a better cholesterol profile. Lack of Omega 3, can cause Renal damage. Brain and mental decline. Younger or older dogs, active or less active dogs -- it is never too late to supplement your pets with omega-3 essential fatty acids, that is fish oil for dogs. By supplementing your dog's diet with Omega 3 you can avoid fetal brain and eye underdevelopment of a puppy. DHA (from fish oil) has been shown to be key in neural development. Recent research shows that the essential fatty acid, DHA, as found in omega-3 fish oil, has training and learning enhancing properties for your pets!. The research shows "that puppies nourished with enhanced (high) levels of dietary docosahexaenoic acid (DHA)were smarter, more trainable than typical-DHA (low-DHA) nourished puppies.". Studies show that pets fed high doses of fish oil also have better control of cancer, help's with bad mood, and learning difficulties. If you are like me, you probably love your pets and want the best for them!

What You Eat Is What You Are This Applies to Dogs Too

I am one of those people who follows a fairly healthy life style regime. Both my husband and I excersize daily and take our dog's to the dog park for over an hour every day. Along with staying fit and healthy we eat a well balanced diet. Nutrition is important to us, and so are vitamins. When we first brought both our German Shepherd puppies home with us we did a lot of research on dog foods, and kibble versus raw. We decided what was best for our dogs was a healthy natural unprocessed home made diet. Our dogs eat a combination of recipes we make for them that consists of various meats, bison, chicken, elk, rabbit, venison, lamb and lean ground beef. Along with rice, and quinoa and a number of leafy greens and carrots. They also get various bones once a day. We also believe in taking our daily vitamins, so we wanted to find out more about what vitamins are also great for dogs. My husband and I travel a lot and so we take a Probiotic pill every day as it helps with any bad bacteria you may get from various sources of foods. This also carries over to a dogs diet and so we began giving our dog's probiotic pills every morning when we take ours. For us one of the reasons we did so much research on Pro biotics for dogs is because we know that German Shepherds are prone to skin problems. We noticed immediately the health Improvements in both our dogs coats and skin just by adding a Pro biotic pill to their food every day. If you decide to take my advice you will see that your dog will have improved immune response and less allergy symptoms, your dogs will have improved skin, coat, and breath (Crowding out 'bad' or unhealthy bacteria with Probiotic provides AMAZING results when it comes to skin flakiness, dryness, excess shedding, dull coat, and bad breath). Your dog will also experience better digestion and elimination, and your dog will absorb nutrients from food more efficiently.

Probiotics for dogs help to reduce the amount of bad bacteria and toxins in the dog's body. The result is a cleaner and more efficient digestive and immune system. When you supplement your dog with pro biotics you'll notice: Better skin and coat appearance Better dog breath (no foul smell) Less gas (flatulence) Fewer allergy symptoms (for dogs with allergies) Normal (regular) bowel functions (for dogs suffering from diarrhea or constipation) Better overall health and energy levels Dogs and cats have unique digestive and immune systems, different from that of a human; dogs and cats should be given probiotics If your dog has any of the following symptoms you may want to consider implementing a pro biotic into your dogs diet. Skin Issues Poor Coat Vomiting Weight Problems Allergies Diarrhea Loose Stool or Yellow Stool Excess Gas (flatulence) Stool Eating Excessive shedding (not normal seasonal shedding)

I hope you find my story helpful, all the best!
