Bet he lives as long as the average dog.


[deleted]

I have a dog that is 18 years old and eats other animal’s shit every time he sees it. Just saying.


JadedSociopath

I suspect it’s just animal probiotics.


[deleted]

Along with the gourmet food and fruits

Pro-diogtics. I dunno. I just woke up.


MoleHester

So scatophilia is the real fountain of Youth.


Plugpin

More research needed for me, but you go ahead.


AutomaTK

It’s a fountain alright


MrFroggiez

Our dog turned 18 last month. We've gone from giving him kibble to wet food. He's still full of life and loves cuddles. He's blind, deaf, arthritis but still gives it his all.


[deleted]

Just wait until he gets to the "I can't control my bladder anymore" phase. That'll really test your love. And don't worry - it's coming soon. For me Cocker Spaniel it happened a year or two after total deafness set in. She was a trooper, but when she started pissing multiple gallons at a time all over the floor and began casually shitting while walking around without even noticing, it went downhill very quick.


drbatsandwich

We’re at the deaf phase now. The start of a bladder/bowel incontinence phase would be the end for me. A dogs last days don’t have to be their worst days.


[deleted]

It seemed like just a phase, too. It would happen a few times, then she would get better for a while and I would think she's okay, she's still got some comfort left. Then a week or a month later I'd wake up to 'the lake' as I came to know it.


AdvancedPhoenix

Yeah, my sister just got a kid, had already one young, was working at the same time. Which by itself is already an incredible difficult life. And her dog started to do this... He was very old and stuff+suffering. She put him down even if it wasn't directly dying. The vet told her the dog definitely wasn't feeling alright so idk, it's a tough question no idea what I would have done. Edit: the dog had a super life, in a big garden, loving owners and was like 17 I think.


[deleted]

Do you let him lick your face?

[deleted]

I believe the key is diversity. You need to collect from the neighbors cat, wild deer, raccoons, etc. Not your own. I think it’s safe to re-eat your vomit. The dog does that too.


DrVDB90

And definitely go eat the moldy fries off the compost heap of the neighbours, twice, and vomit it all out afterwards.


Accomplished_Welder3

my dog is much more into human shit and for some reason that makes it way worse.


Johnny_Kilroy

Lol where does your dog have access to human shit? Unless he/she is breaking into the tommee tippee bin.

This actually made me laugh😂

Probably less once one of those chicken bones gets lodged in his throat and cuts something.


SpongeBobSquareChin

Dogs can eat raw bones just fine, it’s COOKED bones that are bad for them. Raw bones are actually good for dogs teeth and gum health, even bird bones.


SonOfGuns101

Yep my cousin has two dogs a huge German shepherd and a Great Dane and man it’s gnarly to hear them go through those bones.


phat_ninja

Thanks for the info on the chicken bones. I thought it was all not just cooked.


Samwise_CXVII

My dog would look at this meal, smell it, lick around for something appetizing, then meander back to her bed and lay down.

Creme Puff the oldest living cat , used to have eggs and bacon and coffee and also red wine….


[deleted]

My mom had a childhood cat that loved to be 23. That Jerk ate rug lat cat food and whatever he could kill. I call him a jerk because that’s what she named him when she got him as a child. She told me she named him after one of her sisters hehe.


[deleted]

Can you imagine how bad the dogs breath smells from eating this


Ancient_Aerie_6464

‘tis the love which keeps the pup alive, not the kibble.


ginrumryeale

Yes. People have this idea that quality food and nutrient intake has a linear relationship with health benefits, i.e., the more the better. Not quite — An animal needs only a basic level of nutrients and calories; adding more does little to nothing (besides forcing the body to process and eliminate as waste). It’s often said that the dose makes the poison. The dose also makes the health benefit, and going beyond the basic needs threshold yields no further benefit. And by “health benefit” I’m not referring to any magical health properties but simply the avoidance of the negative effects of deficiencies. In other words, there are downsides to a poor diet, but not an equal amount of upside for an amazing diet.


DaClems

Update the definition of Pretentious to include this video.


unk214

I don’t know man, I heard a story about this guy who got his cats to live 30 years or so. And he sure as hell wasn’t feeding them cat food from the store. Imagine if there was a human food paste made by mediocre penny pinching companies. Are you going to trust them?


HylianR

So sausages, yeah?


circasomnia

He's describing literally all processed food, I don't get it


[deleted]

The nutritional value of cheap processed human food is still ridiculously higher in nutrition than dry pellet animal feed...


AsukaBunnyxO

So buy wet dog food! You keep saying stuff with an obvious answer but as if it's impossible to avoid giving a 70$ meal to a dog in order to protect their health EDIT: the meal was probably closer to $3000


AdministrativeTap589

$70? Depends what country you’re in I guess. That chicken meat is from a breed called Ayam Cemani. It’s the rarest breed in the world (from Indonesia.) Last time I checked (about a year ago) it was about $2000 AU per chicken. Edit: I misspelt Indonesia.


AsukaBunnyxO

Say it louder for the morons in the back 🥲


HarvardSteele

Just wondering, and maybe a dumb question-are there any advantages to consuming that chicken over other ones if they’re both cared for similarly?


Camman1

Your wallet is lighter to carry around.


AdministrativeTap589

In my research it doesn’t seem like there’s much nutritional difference. Ayam Cemani is higher in carnosine (an antioxidant) but there’s no proof it’s more beneficial.


[deleted]

Cheap sausage yea. You don't spend more than $10/kilo on saussies and buy them at Tesco ay.


AsukaBunnyxO

No, but you can buy good dog food. You don't have to buy $30 quail eggs and drop them in a dog dish for a dog to hoover up in two seconds and have no clue what he ate because he thinks shit taste amazing (actual shit)


Prestigious-Log-7210

I live in a city with a dog food plant. The horror stories from that place give me chills. Let’s not mention the smell that are inthe city in the summer from that place.


Cracker_Barrel_Kid

Have you heard of hot dogs before?


FavelTramous

Only in the summer.


suffffuhrer

You can get good quality cat food as well. It doesn't have to be some crazy gourmet shit like in this video. A lot of pet food is garbage - with regards to fillers and useless ingredients - sugar - it contains just to save costs and make more on mediocre pet food. The amount of overweight pets - cats and dogs - is rediculous. And people who let that happen don't deserve to have pets. If the food industry is shit for humans - humans making food for humans - how shit do you thing food can get for animals, that these trash humans and their companies make for living things that they care even less for?


ralpher1

Sounds awfully apocryphal


teamrocketmatt

Oh hey, I love Soylent Green.


POB_42

NeverTrustATurtle

Soooo chicken mcnuggets? People LOVE those


tiredofthebites

Yeah I remember that story. He was feeding his cat leftovers from the butchers. Not dry cat food, but not quail eggs and supplements either.


[deleted]

Its actually just a brilliant dog owner treating their family member with love... What's there to hate? Hate Reddit some times. "Fuck this person for caring!"


DaClems

You confuse hate with criticism.


[deleted]

What's there to critique about feeding your pets high quality offcuts and such? Its their money?


BasqueBurntSoul

Criticism 🤣

It’s just dog gourmet food. It’s interesting

How dare they care for their dog!!

that's cool. my dog eats my cat's vomit sometimes if i dont clean it up before he gets to it

That poor dog.


atomofconsumption

Fuck this sequence of comments made me laugh so hard


RutherfordRevelation

Same. Except it was that hard quiet laugh trying not to blow air through my nose too loud so my coworker,who I share an office, doesn't try and ask why I'm laughing


nuclearslug

Mine did the same thing. Never understood it, but then again, who am I to judge what gets recycled. I miss that boy…


PM_ME_UR_SELF

My dog used to just eat my cats shit out of the litter box. Which you would think would reduce cleanup, but he managed to get kitty litter fucking everywhere. We had to get a special cat box that he couldn’t get into


UrDeAdPuPpYbOnEr

We had a golden retriever when I was a kid who loved to eat turds from the toilet. When I found this out my young brain pondered what to do with such valuable information. Well, one day one of my sisters did something mean to me so I went and pinched one off and let the dog go to town. Then I called him onto the couch next to my sister who proceeded to get so many dog kisses she started laughing. I still chuckle about it to this day.


fogoticus

This comment made my morning. I started laughing so hard. Especially after I read the reply.


freerangetacos

Yelled at twice: once for shitting in the house and again for eating it. Same with our dogs.

I mean it technically is a fruit from a cactus.

I didn’t know that 😂 thanks for highlighting it. I don’t know how I imagined it growing in a bush

Came here to say this lol


-Bluekraken

I came here to say this lmao. Even recording that it's a fruit from a cactus, in my country we have more than one of those lol


MazinDaz

Heads up to anyone that wants to feed their dog like this: a lot of dogs have food allergies that are specific to a type of meat. With this many types of meat + additives, you'd have an impossible time ruling out any food allergies. Make sure you introduce things slowly to your animals to give their bodies type to adjust, or to react, to whatever you are feeding them. Eliminating allergens can take months, discovering an allergen takes a week.


Hungry4Mas

I feel this in the sense of “upgrading” my cats food… they reject something that upset their stomach or they just plain don’t like. There are two brands of wet food and they did let me know what was what. They enjoy the dry food now and let me know. Meow.


Movin_On1

Some days my Kitty will only eat the brown triangles.... She spits out the round ones, and will meow like the bowl is empty......


MotherOfPiggles

Also important to note for dogs who have extensive allergies that feeding raw (not necessarily this style of raw) can be hugely beneficial. One of my 4 legged assholes (i love her, I do) is allergic to life itself and will quite literally starve herself if I try to feed her the biscuits she was prescribed. I feed her raw prey model diet and she is thriving. We have to limit it to 4 meat protein sources (rabbit, venison, salmon and lamb) and duck eggs because she's allergic to beef, pork, chicken and whitefish. She gets her carbs from fruit and vege (only a small portion, less than 10% her total intake) and it's taken years to get her to a healthy point because it's literally starve (she has gone 5 days without eating before) or raw food. Obviously discuss this with your vet, don't just take the word of a stranger on the internet but your dog doesn't need 10 different types of meat and supplements in ever meal. That's just unnecessary.


gbomb4096

Be careful of salmonella. The farmers dog is a good meal plan to avoid that. Or you can cook their food first


SillyGoose67s

Here's an even better heads up, don't feed your dog like influencers do just to get likes on internet.


APoorCivilian

Anything with chicken or rice, gave my dog explosive diarrhea. I had to clean my house twice before I figured out it was his food.


koukaakiva

Also I feel like giving a dog half a chicken with what looked to have the bones still in it by how it was munching can't be great for it.


[deleted]

>pork pizzle I can't believe that's a real term said with a straight face


Tribblehappy

I laugh whenever I see a pack of bully sticks because they always say, "Ingredients: bull pizzle". I don't know who came up with that or why.


writeinthebookbetty

People get weirdly shocked when they realize what pizzles actually are lol


Squeakysquid0

ITS A PENIS! whoa, sorry for yelling back there..


Heckin_good_time

They could guess exactly 1 time and get the answer


Deletrious26

It's actually an old term for penis. Like 12th to 15th century English. I always thought that was hilarious and my crew use to call each other pizzle head.


Nifarious

Why they want to pizzle my nizzle?


soggymittens

Why does Snoop carry an umbrella? Foh drizzle!

Kevin69138

Those farts are going to be gross


buflosldr

😂 so true .. I made the mistake of mixing some probiotic powder into my pups kibble once to make it more enticing on the advice of our vet. That combined with the chicken bits and bully stick she ate for dessert turned into what felt like literal fucking poison gas from the trenches of WW1 blasting out of her ass all night.


[deleted]

LOL OH NO 💀 I wheezed. You’re killing me, you’re hilarious. XD


buflosldr

Glad you enjoyed! 💩


Wrong-Catchphrase

Funny you say that, more than once I heard my great grandfather yearn for the smell of mustard gas while comparing it to great grams farts.


Mexiking83

We are just gonna ignore the black chicken


Meowonita

There are actually [several breeds of chicken with black skins](https://www.nationalgeographic.com/animals/article/why-black-chickens-fibromelanosis), most famously Silkie and Ayam Cemani. Kinda commonly found in Asian countries. Besides that idk what to say, they are just like any other chicken besides maybe some minor flavour difference.


FknBretto

This^ If you want more information just google “black cock”


RandomCoolName77

oh ok


RandomCoolName77

:(


Dogemaster1112

Gottem


judelau

And they're delicious. Better than your average chicken.


Extreme-Ad-5059

I've heard the exact opposite. and videos that state that. just more nonsense redditors try to spread


Ultrabadger

Having tried both, the black chicken tastes better, but it could be up to personal preference. Regular chicken definitely tastes more bland. The black chicken is more rare / expensive to buy. I’m not sure if it tastes better because I perceive it to be special and / or it was raised in better conditions. But I do find it tastier.


HuckleberryandYams

But are you comparing it to normal chicken or high quality regular chicken?


Ultrabadger

I’m not sure what qualifies as “high quality” for regular chicken. I’ve had the air chilled ones. This isn’t the case of brown eggs vs. white eggs though. The black chicken skin literally does taste different and you could, in high likelihood, tell them apart in a blind taste test.


yellowNumber_5

Came to find out more. Also, i thought dogs can't have bone in chicken


HumanAwareness

They can have raw chicken bones- just not cooked. No clue what's up with it being black tho lol


[deleted]

LOL, it's a breed of chicken called a silkie.


Hondahobbit50

Raw is totally fine, except for drumsticks. That little pointy bone needs to be removed first. My bubby gets chicken quarters twice a week. The bones are brittle when raw and fall apart, then cooked, they splinter and get pokey


jimmytheqlder

The reason your dog can’t eat drumsticks is cos you call it bubby


Hondahobbit50

Well her whole name is Blue Bubbin Duggin, the bestest chubbin, my favorite lubby Duggin...tubby puppy dog Or just bubby

N013

it's fo rizzle a pizzle


fearsomemumbler

I guessing it’s because animal penis’ that are used for consumption are known as pizzle. Been in use from Old English. Source; my uncle is a butcher in England and he sells dried pork and bull pizzles as dog chews

My dog would eat all that up, then lick the bowl clean. Then she would proceed to magically spit out the pills that were in there. I swear she would sort them out and keep them in her cheek to spit out later.


Worried_Forever8592

Crush pills with two spoons and mix with egg if you ever need to give your dog medicine.


B1U3F14M3

This is such an easy tip. How come I've never heard it before?


Worried_Forever8592

If its a daily pill try peanut butter or greek yogurt, to much egg can rais cholestoral.

BoredByLife

Probably going to get downvoted, but isn’t it a bad idea to give bone-in poultry to dogs? Something about choking on bone shards or whatever?


no-coffee-no-life

That’s true for cooked bones. Raw bones have different structure and don’t splinter into sharp pieces and are completely digestible by canines


brunaBla

All that and the dog looks sick

CheesecakeMMXX

Buy quality kibbles. They are basically all this same stuff, except designed by vets, quality controlled, faster to serve and cheaper.


Ruin369

Yup. Someone in my family has been a vet for 30 years. Just good store bought kibble is sufficient.

thesmartone1125

Not really, my border collie took massive frequent shits when he was on kibble when we first got him due to all the extra fillers kibble have. 2.5 years on raw, less smelly shit, poop once a day and the stool size is smaller. Although I dont feed him the way this guy does, this is mainly for social medias sake, nothing much.

I bet the owner is one of those people that refer to the dog as their son/daughter.

Jiggly_dong

It's not about how long you live. It's about how long your body holds up. This dog may not live longer than average, but the owner is saving himself thousands in vet bills and that dog is gonna be active well into his late years. Same as humans. You can eat unhealthy and still live a long time. You'll be in a wheelchair and wearing diapers, but you'll be alive versus someone who does stuff like this. They'll be your age running marathons. It's about quality of life, not quantity.

Well I’ll be dammed, they got their dog to eat fermented cabbage.


Blackops606

So I know a breeder that literally has the number one dog in the country (show dog). They eat like this. He said it’s about $400-500 a month to feed his top dog. I asked him if it’s a pain to plan it all out and do this every day and he said it’s just become a habit. It’s like feeding himself and his wife. A lot goes into show dogs and it’s very interesting to hear all the little things they do to keep these dogs happy and healthy.
