Help with dog diet


Posted: Sep 14, 2012

I have a dog with kidney problems.  The vet put her on a renal diet.  She also gave me some homemade recipes to make.  In all of the recipes it calls for 2-3 ounes of chicken fat.

What do they mean by chicken fat?

Thanks for any help.

It is chicken fat. You can buy the chicken fat at the butcher's or in that section. They usually sell it in a little jar.

It probably means the recipe is calling for the fat drippings left behind after a chicken is roasted. There are websites about how to "render" chicken fat from a whole chicken. Don't know them exactly, but they will come up on an internet search.

I Need To Diet And Trying To Get My Own Dietician ToDec 29, 2009
I am overweight, probably on the 60 pounds or more side. I think I look ok when I look in the mirror and then see picture of me and think "who is that?" I have a hospital close by my house and I would like to get a diet that is suitable for me. I have tried WW's, Medifast, Jenny's and the like. I do not care for their food and find getting away from the house a challenge as the days I have off seem to be taken up with other things. I want a diet that is low enough in calories but one t ...

While I'm At It, I Need A Doggie Diet.Jul 02, 2010
Our dog weighs 108 pounds (black lab). She doesn't want to exercise. Won't play anymore. Just lays around. She weighed 96 pounds 2 years ago and at the vet this past winter, she put on the extra 12 pounds during the year. We were only giving her 1 can of dog food and 1 can of dry food (scooped up with a regular veggie size can) a day. She seemed okay with this but still gained weight. We tried cutting back to 1/2 can dog food and dry food, but she wasn't happy 'cau ...

Purina DietOct 17, 2012
So I'm at Wal-Mart buying a bag of Purina dog food for my dog. While in the check-out line, a woman behind me asked if I had a dog. Why else would I be buying dog food, RIGHT??? So on impulse I told her that no, I didn't have a dog, I was starting the Purina Diet again, and that I probably shouldn't because I ended up in the hospital last time, but that I'd lost 50 pounds before I awakened in intensive care with tubes coming out of most of my orifices and IVs in both ar ...

Put My Porker Of A Cat On A Diet And How ItJan 22, 2014
I tried to give that chunky guy some incentive. I even joined him and dieted right along with him. You would think he would say well we both can do this. Noooooooo, that has not happened. I researched, came here, others offered suggestions, bought some nice grain free food, called the company to find out how much to feed him, got him in the habit of going separately in a room to feed, he really takes a couple of bites and ready to leave out and go as fast as he can to where the other cats have f ...

On Line Diet CompaniesJul 29, 2010
I was just wondering if anyone has ever tried the on line diet places where you purchase food, like NutriSystems, EDiets, etc., and actually lost weight.  Mostly I am considering it because of having to work 18 hours a day to barely make my mortgage each month, I do not really have time to cook a nutritious meal, and my body is suffering.  I was wondering if the food was any good, and if someone actually did lose weight.  I was wondering if the cost of the food was worth not havin ...

Gluten-Free DietNov 03, 2013
What is all this stuff about gluten being bad for you? Since when? Gluten is only bad for people with celiac disease---and there's a very specific blood test for celiac disease. Celiac disease is in the media more, because doctors are realizing that people with the symptoms (diarrhea, as the main symptom) should be tested for the disease. It doesn't mean gluten causes Celiac disease, it means that people with Celiac disease cannot tolerate gluten. Gluten also doesn't cause any hea ...
