MemberI donāt have much experience in feeding raw, but I personally will not feed my dog raw chicken due to concerns over salmonella. I always cook it. JMO.

MemberThanks for the input!
I meant to say My familyās Cocker gets 1/3 to slightly under 1/2 a cup twice a day, two just under 1/4 cup scoops. She got just under 1/4 cup when she was 40lbs working her way down to the 25lbs sheās at now. =)-

MemberThanks for responding! That sounds pretty reasonable for a dog w an average metabolism, maybe slightly higher or lower. My parents 25lb Cocker Spaniel w/ a slower than average metabolism gets slightly under 1/4 cup twice a day of the Natural Balance Fish and Sweet Potatoes at 380cal/cup, w/ a generous helping of green beans mixed in. She is constantly ravenous.
Iām pretty big on calories, probably not least because I am in recovery from an eating disorder, and calories were at one point my entire life. I do agree w you that the labels are most likely a bit off, but probably not by much, at least IMO. I think itās a little part of the puzzle of dog nutrition, probably not too important for easy keeping dogs, but for hard keepers like mine I feel like its something I should pay attention to.
Again, thanks for the input. =)-

Member^ Studies have shown that small dog bites are significantly less likely to be reported than bites from large dogs. Of course it can happen, especially if its a bad bite, but it is less likely. The article I read stated Dachshunds in particular as the most likely breed to bite, according to the study, but highly underreported, along w/ bites from other small breeds.

MemberI would not try medication. It can often reduce bite inhibition. I donāt know what to tell you. Nothing can really make up for good socialization as a puppy, particularly in breeds known to be difficult in some cases, such as Chihuahuas. Fortunately your dog is most likely small enough that you are not looking at a lawsuit if/when she injures somebody.
