    As a general rule for adult dogs B-size for dry food: around 1% of their bodyweight per day. For puppies a bit more. Also depends on their activity, temperature and the like. Just check how close you are to this, and see how the body responds. We have found that a little food extra or less can make a difference.

    Well after waiting a bit, I finally got the salmon ears http://www.salmonears.com/products.html today. I was wiped out, going to take a nap, thought– let me give them one so they are happy. Big mistake. They first were like "wth?" Then, they went wild. They ate one, would not stop scenting and looking for more. I had to make them get under the covers. They got up. They searched the bed, the floor, they scented. I gave up, got up, got another and took pics. I am going to place an order for 2 friends I had TOLD I'd share a few of mine with. Um, no. Not sharing mine. Until now, their fave thing has been the dried Canyon chicken breast jerky or Waggin trains. Since both from China, stopped them. They will eat any treat, but those made them happy. Guess what? They are happy again. Will they work for training? There are large and small sizes. I am going to use the small for training, but the big ones created very very happy dogs.

    the home made hot dog treats are a good one as listed above - instead of putting them in the oven you can also put the little cut up pieces in the microwave until they are dry-ish -

    @tanza: While I understand "financial" concerns, better quality food equals usually feeding less so what you spend up front is a savings in the end…. Not only that, but better health in the long run, so potentially less $$$ spent on vet bills. Just like with us humans, you have to think outside of the box when it comes to how much you spend on food. In the long run spending extra $ on higher quality food may mean savings over time with our health.

    @dcmclcm4: Blueberries can cause the stool to change color in humans but I do not know if this is true for dogs. Do not panic if it does. Jennifer Oh, and in the muttloaf, the blueberries can look like mold. So I always warn the hubby if he happens to be feeding.

    I understand now. My thoughts run the same line. The families should be tested as much as possible. This gives a truer indication of who is carrier and the probabilites of such. Thanks for the clarification.
