has anyone ever heard of beestart you can buy it from the butchers to build up your dogs what is it?

Question

i have a dog that is a bit lean and she could do with building up a bit and a breeder told me to go to the butchers and ask for something called beestart but i dont know what it is is it cowfat or something i have tryed to find out what it is on internet but it just brings up something in chinese could any body give me any advice on what it is i think i have spelt beestart the right way thanks and kindest regards Joe

Answer 1

I think its beef heart as well; but its really not as good as regular dog food! A small (marble sized) piece of beef fat is a nice treat that will do your dog some good.
Some dogs are picky eaters, if thats the case then try adding canned Butchers Tripe or sardines in oil to her food. Drain the oil off first. Sardines are great because they have protein, oil and calcium.
And make sure you're using a reasonable quality dog food, if she has a small appetite and is full easily then you need to cram the most nutrients into the smallest volume of food. Cheap dog foods contain more filler and she doesn't need that.
I've yet to meet a dog that would turn their nose up at either.

Answer 2

Brilliant

Answer 3

i've never herd of it, but then again, i only fed my dogs normal meat. you could ask the breeder what beestart is. as for the chinese, i think you could copy it, and then go to babel fish, and from there you can translate it. that might help.

Answer 4

it's beef heart, but I don't know why that should build a dog up any better than regular food

Answer 5

think your hearing it wrong either that or the breeder can't speak. Probably means BEEF HEART, you can get it at any supermarket

Answer 6

Are you sure he didn't say "beef heart"?
