Burns

Hi everyone,
I feed Kodi on burns as mentioned previously. Can I ask...does anyone else that feeds burns soak the food first or just put it straight from the bag into a bowl??? Whats best?
As iv'e been giving Kodi's soaked usually prepare night before for breakie or 2 hours before for her dinner. But she already drinks plenty of water throughtout the day.
Also I gave her and Sam a roasted pork bone from pets at home the other day and they were fine but just read u shouldn't. Y's this as Sam been eating all sorts of bones for years.

I used to soak Burns sometimes for Star when she was a pup now she takes it dry with a little nature diet added to it

Ive heard that the roasted bones can splinter Never used them so have no idea if its true.

Hi I dont feed burns, but something else. Just wanted to say... I stopped soaking Luna's food when she had changed her teeth, so at around 6 months of age. (Had done it before that, but soaked it again while she changed teeth).

good point Jeanette thats when I stopped soaking Star's food. Feeding it dry is supposed to keep the teeth clean.

Lily is 5 months and is on Burns mini-bites, I stopped soaking it around 3 months, it's something else for her to chew on rather than our toes!

We gave to Saffy soaked after she had her op. Otherwise it's always dry. She loves the stuff

Paddy has it dry too although I'm not sure it touches his teeth . He also had a roast bone last week and that did splinter so never again.
