Well I'm not really a dog person, this is our second collie in 25 years, I'm a perfect collie owner obsessive, work is serious, play is ok as long as its full on then crash.
So we have always fed him ( 2 years old now) working dog 18-21% protein dependant on time of year and work load, he is fed twice a day weighed quantity.
Recently I have started to feed him rabbit, fresh (still warm) or cooked if frozen, rabbit replaces one meal,
Questions
1. Is a whole rabbit about the same as a large portion of protein biscuits
2. Rabbit bones are they ok or not ?
3. Cooked rabbit good or not so good ?
he is out with chickens all day in an acre or so, he looks after them against predators, so he's constantly keeping them together, he has other jobs to do that mentally tire him out, he puts the chickens away at night then collapses, we sometimes check to see if he is still breathing.
If we go out we kennel him though he can get out if he needs too.
Our collie is superb, he's 100% working dog, I can walk him through a field of sheep without a lead and he won't do a thing, I don't treat him with food or big cuddles, the rest of the family do but our relationship is business, he does his jobs he'll be fed, housed and respected.
