The Way I Feed My Mastiff And What It Does For Him
I am going to tell you about the mastiff dog breed and what I give Charlie . As you can imagine Charlie is my mastiff. He is an English Mastiff. There are quite a few breeds out there which have their own qualities but I stopped at Charlie. He is of the dark fawn-brindle ( flecked in browns) persuasion and of average size and weight(32 inches tall and nearing 190 lbs).
Firstly , let me tell you all that I have heard success stories will all different types of diets for mastiffs from Pure meat to almost vegetarian but this is what I feed mine and it has done Charlie wonders. I got this recipe from a friend of the family that had an English Mastiff for as long as I have known him and his have always seemed full of energy an enthusiastic. Well full of energy for a mastiff that is.
I started feeding Charlie puppy kibble and it seemed to be doing just fine but once he became a teen he started looking like he needed a little more. I tried just feeding him more kibble at the beginning but he still seemed skinny and a little sleepy. That’s when I started feeding him what he eats now and it has worked.
I main ingredients are ground turkey, brown rice and raw veggies. Mainly carrots broccoli and cauliflower. I cook a half pound of ground turkey till tis done and add about half a cup of cooked brown rice. I chop up about a cups worth of vegetables until they are small enough to where I wouldn’t need to cut them if I ate them. I mix them all together and serve it to him after it cools. I also place his bowl on a stool so he doesn’t have to bend over to eat. He eats everything to the last drop .
I do this two times a day once for breakfast and once for dinner. I have made a few meals and saved them in the fridge and that seems to work just fine too. One thing i have never done is made tons and frozen it and fed it to him over a week or two but I can only assume that would work too and maybe even be cheaper seeing as how you could buy it in bulk.
I was very surprised. You could see Charlie changing and within a month or so he had a shinier coat and more energy. He even started putting on some lean muscle weight. Charlie is now a very enthusiastic English Mastiff he has energy I have a friend that has an American Bandogge Mastiff and he loves this diet too so I can only imagine that every type of the mastiff dog breed would too. I love this breed and i love my good ole dog so I hope you try this diet for a while and see of it makes your dog as enthusiastic and healthy as mine.
