Hi,
I'm looking for a list of safe and not safe veggies for Nero. We have been on Wendy Volhard's Raw diet for 3 weeks and see fantastic results. Solid poop!!!

I have been giving him carrots but want to switch it up. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance

Let's see...

Brocolli
Cauliflower
Squash
Garlic
Bok Choy
Celery
Tomatoes
Leafy greens
Spinach
Parsley

I am not familiar with Wendy Volhard's diet...care to elaborate on what you feed aside from the veggies?

sweet and regular potatoes
green beans
peas

I give Tyson just about all of them but onions.

You should never give onions, they're toxic.

Buddy also eats bannana's tangarines, apples, lettuce, and mushrooms. He really digs bannanas.

Hi - The diet is kinda like raw for beginners. It is made by Wendy Volhard and has an am and pm mix. For the morning Nero gets some of the AM mix, yoghurt, water to hydrogenate the mix and 4 table spoons of veggies. (That is why we were asking what he could have).

In the evening he gets the PM mix, water to hydrogenate it and 2.5 cups of raw beef. On the 6th day he gets a can of fish (large can).

What ever is in the mix has all of his vitamins and magic stuff to give him solid poop! We don't know why it works, but it does. Another boxer owner recommended it to us. He had runny poo for 7 months straight and we tried this and it went right away.

Nero still needs to gain 5 pounds, he is slightly under weight. So we are trying our best to gradually include more calories for him.

Glad you found something that works for you and Nero!
