Re: Raw feeding dogs
Yes, Peter, sometimes I'm stymied by the differences in word order between English and German ..
That's one of the reasons I'm here - to help me there.
Rather OT - an example:
She has eaten the bread = Sie hat das Brot gegessen.
All the words are similar, but we use a different "logic" in German.

Re: Raw feeding dogs
Yes, Peter, I have to agree re treatments of animals. We got our dog from the gardener who worked for us as a baby and when I later asked about his sisters and the mother I was told that he had them shot because of some illness ...
Taking them to the vet would have been to expensive.
Luckily most people now treat their dogs alright - when we go to our vet in Keszthely there are always people waiting.
Re chicken feet and other bones:
My wife often buys a hen or a rooster from our neighbour - most of the parts go into making soup and the well cooked "maradek" are for the cats and dogs. Since we lost our dog to old age the neighbours' dogs can count themselves happy - whenever we walk by they're standing at thefence waiting ...

Vets - friends in Hungary have learnt from us it's important to have their dog treated for worms, etc. They never bothered with any previous dog.

Re: Raw feeding dogs
The good news:
More and more people care for their dogs, have them treated for fleas etc too ...
Here's an interesting study that warns against the dangers of "barfing" that I just found:

Re: Raw feeding dogs
Same here - but only the dogs that are brought by their owners to the vet who visits ...
Many dogs never leave the garden where they are chained to a tree though this also forbidden ...

Re: Raw feeding dogs
This is the shop I was telling you about in Miskolc where you can buy raw food for Archie. Goldie Allateledel szakuzlet. Unfortunately they don't deliver.
https://www.facebook.com/pages/categ...0233002671862/
You can order Barf online from Hell Dog Allateledel who deliver all over Hungary.
HELL DOG Állateledel
There's also another BARF supplier (can't remember the name at the moment) who delivers to Miskolc but you have to collect late afternoon from the Auchan car park on your side of Miskolc.
I feed my two a mixture of raw, home cooked, canned and dry. When you're here permanently I'll give you a list of all the pet food shops I buy from if you like.

Re: Raw feeding dogs
And yes you are right about chaining up dogs permanently being forbidden. This law is complied with about as much as the one that forbids the use of mobile phones whilst driving

Just had a thought.
Why don't you join the Pet Forum Community which is UK based. Some very knowledgeable dog owners (as well as other pets) are members and they're a really friendly and helpful group of people.

Re: Raw feeding dogs
We usually buy all our dry food online from www.grandopet.hu
It works out much cheaper than buying from a pet shop. Delivery is within 2 days and they have one BARF product.

Or from Okosgazdi who are not expensive, have a great selection and often deliver the following day. https://okosgazdi.hu/

Re: Raw feeding dogs
Not to be pedantic but over 65 public transport is almost free. There is a small fee to pay if a bus goes on a motorway (it cost me 300 fts to do the 150km to Budapest) Unfortunately this charge (at a smaller amount) is also made for any part of the route that the service takes so a trip to the next village incurs a charge if the bus happens to be a long distance bus. The buses that have this supplementary charge are identified both on the bus and on the timetable so if you choose your service you can avoid the supplementary charges.. I believe inter-city trains also have this charge.
