Case Study
| Barry and Buddy are two Mastiff cross pups that had an unfortunate start to life. As young pups they were housed in a wire cage on concrete and fed meat and bone scraps only, and came to us in an emaciated state at six months of age. Both pups were immediately fed Natural Nurse in small portions, and the total quantity of food fed was gradually increased until they reached satiation. | |

pups, managed to maintain his dominance over Buddy and at the end of the
six week period weighed an amazing 18.6 kilograms. |
