Raw food

A vet at Coastal Holistic said Mochi is lacking calcium, so I should give him some bones. She mentioned there is a ground meet for dogs and it has ground up bones and organs dogs need. Also, chewing bones would be good for his teeth. So I went to Pawtrero Hill Bathhouse and Feed in Potrero Hill to buy raw and frozen Chicken neck bones and ground meet. I was going to cook the ground meet with veges, but sometimes there are bigger pieces of bones in there, so it is safer to feed him raw.
So I started out mixing a bit of the raw meet into his regular home cooked meal. After about a week, I totally switched to raw meet and cooked vege without brown rice as the vet recommended. The meet I bought was only $4 for 2LB, which is same or cheaper than meet I was buying to make his food.
I also add muti-vitamin for dogs and salmon oil for his dry skin.
As for raw chicken neck bones… I only let him eat that in our back yard.
His breath smells much better also, so I think bones are cleaning his teeth as our vet mentioned. I used to give him greenies and dental chews everyday, and brushed his teeth a couple times a week, but his breath smelled bad. It is much better now only after a week.
