HOW DO I FEED MY BORZOIS:
The ingredients that I use are the following ones:
• The dry canine food I use on my Borzois is: AFFINITY ADVANCE MANTENANCE MAXI ADULT (a package of 20kg per 36 euro) • Pieces of raw beef’s meat with its bone in the portion of 1000/1200 grams per dog or a mixed of grained beef/pig in the portion of 1000/1200 grams per dog still. • Dry bread, fresh bread, toasted bread, biscuits, crackers. • A raw mixed salad with: cauliflower, carrots and other type of vegetables. • Spinach cooked with butter and parmesan cheese. • Oils: oil of olive, oil of sunflower, oil of soya. • Canned tuna in oil of olive. • Milk (the partially screamed one or not screamed). • Eggs (only the yolk of the egg). • Blown rice. • Paste: spaghetti and all the other type of Italian paste. • Grained Parmesan cheese in confection of 100 grams . HOW DO I USE SUCH INGREDIENTS ON MY DOGS, HOW MANY TIMES PER WEEK, IN WHAT KIND OF DOSAGE:
• The dray canine food is available 24 hours per day for 365 days per year in dry format, flavored with oil of olive or oil of soya, sometimes soaked with some milk, or with brood of chicken, or soaked with some hot water with parmesan cheese.  • The raw bloody meat of beef with its bone in a weight of 1000/1200 grams for dog are served absolutely raw (not cooked) thus like the grained one. This meat is of a good quality one and for human being, I buy it at the discount supermarket at the price of 5 euro per kg. I divide the dogs in their kennels in this case, only when I give them such raw meat with bone. I usually give such meat every 8/10 days, not more.  • I give them some dry bread, or fresh bread, or biscuits, or crackers daily, in the morning and in the evening in order to make them to enter in their kennels to sleep.  • The salad is a mixed of a lot of kind of verdures, and I give them every 3 days, putting all the verdures into a big plastic bucket in which I add oil and 6 big canned tuna in oil of olive, than I mix all of these with a long wooden spoon. I subdivide all of this into their aluminum bowls raised from the ground adding some parmesan cheese (I buy all kind of legumes and vegetables at the discount supermarket for the cost of 1 euro per kg). • Eggs to alternate days, 2 reds of egg per dog. • I sometimes use milk in order to soak the dry food mixed to blown rice, but I prefer onto give my dogs fresh cheese (more digestible than milk is). • Paste 1 turns to week, flavored with sauce and parmesan or oil of oil and parmesan. • I add some grained parmesan cheese to the dry food (dry or soaked) and to the paste. To the young ones I give some parmesan cheese in small pieces for a total of 300 grams per dog, once or twice per week (I buy the parmesan cheese at the discount supermarket at the cost of 8-9 euro per kg, this price is not for the top of parmesan, the top quality f parmesan cheese it cost 17 euro per kg). I must specify that the dogs digest all of these different foods (over mentioned) on well, verdure comprised (and they like vegetables at the same as the raw beef). Every day I did a control to their faeces as I remove them from the grass daily.
Their faeces are of a small volume, compact and not smelling; the dog’s skin and coat are either at the best too.  Massimo
