Puppy tooth fairy?
Puppy people!
I nearly had a heart attack last night when 2 of Lola’s teeth fell out and her mouth started to bleed. I immediately thought EMERGENCY ROOM! My child is dying! Her teeth will choke her as they continue to fall out throughout the night! She has a strange tooth canSer! Oh GODDESS!
Brian and Corinne both laughed at me (which I did not appreciate – until I started to laugh at me too). Is this normal? I guess dog babies are like human babies. It’s all so new to me. I’m a cat woman. Cats don’t lose their teeth or was I just oblivious?
I gave her some cool veggies to chew on and she went wild. Carrot and Kale shrapnel everywhere!
PS. How many of you are feeding your dogs raw food? How about kibble? We’re about to introduce raw and I’m not sure how to do it. Help wise pooch people!
Peace and nervous mother,
Kris

I have a puppy too who is losing her teeth! We have found 3 so far and are really excited because when kittens and puppys lose their teeth, they usually swallow them or are pretty much lost. Yay for you!
Hi Kris,
I feed my dog half raw, half lightly cooked.
I also prepare his food myself so I know exactly whats going into it. I have a 6lb. chihuahua so it’s not a big deal but if you decide to prepare Lola’s food yourself I highly recommend following the meal recipe’s in the book “Dr. Becker’s Real Food for healthy dogs and cats.” She is an incredibly knowledgeable holistic vet and this book helped me immensely.
Good Luck and transition slowly.
Hi Kris,
I was just perusing your older blog posts and happened upon this one. Lola is adorable!
I’ve been feeding my (rescue! :) beagles a raw diet based on the Whole Prey Model for a year now and they are doing beautifully. Shining examples of health both inside and out … and I’ve never seen them happier at dinner time.
I’m not sure if you’ve landed on a way to feed Lola that you are happy with by now but if you want to learn more about whole prey model, I encourage you to join the yahoo rawfeeding group. http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/rawfeeding/ There are amazing, generous people with years of experience offering free advice from the kindness of their hearts to anyone new to raw feeding their dogs (or cats).
Another informative site is also rawfed.com. Unfortunately the site is down temporarily, but here is a link to the archived version. http://web.archive.org/web/20071124121456/rawfed.com/myths/index.html
I hope you find this info helpful and interesting!
Peace and love to you and Lola,
