These comprehensive feed programs are based in 33 years of knowledge, feed trials, and real life experience as a respected breeder of Great Danes, Pugs and Borzois.These feed programs are not to be used in lieu of a veterinarian's diagnosis or advice, or to cure disease. These programs are a tool to assist owners and breeders in promoting health, wellness and longevity for their companion animals.

The Blackwatch Feed Program -Adults & Puppies

In all the Blackwatch Feed Programs I use a Super Premium or Holistic foods as a basis for the diet and provide a list of supplements that make this comprehensive program and promotes long term wellness. In the feed programs you will notice some brand options for nutrients, these listed below are the ones available in the UK. These whole food supplements do not disrupt the balance of the diet, unlike many supplements people tend to add to their program. Do NOT use any calcium or vitamin/mineral supplements with the Blackwatch Feed Program, or it will disrupt the balance of the calcium and phosphorus levels and cause growth problems as well as other health issues in adult.

Puppies: You can use 10% raw meat/tripe component along with Eagle Natural or Eagle Super Premium Large/Giant Breed Puppy or Eagle Holistic Select Large/Giant Breed Puppy or Eagle Holistic Select Chicken. These are all foods appropriate for growth in large &giant breeds. A large dog is any dog that matures to 50lbs at adulthood.

Puppies 10-12 months: - you can use 20% meat/tripe and 80% Eagle Kibble. Not all dog food brands or types are calculated in their calcium and phosphorous content to use with raw meats or tripe, which can cause growth problems in young dogs and arthritis in older dogs.

Adults: you can use up to 25% meat/tripe and 80% Eagle kibble.

Blackwatch Feed Program Supplements - from one source.

NZYMES - dietary enzymes for detoxification, a natural anti-inflammatory, helps prevent vaccine reactions - start it at weaning - use throughout life.
BakPakPlus - powerful, multiple beneficial bacteria and 4 digestive enzymes to add in digestion and to keep immune system in good shape
Oxydrops- anti-viral, anti-fungal, antibacterial - multiple uses internal/external - every pet owner needs to read all the things this remarkable liquid will do. It needs to be used diluted when used for cleaning ears, eyedrops, colonics etc. It can be used in a vaporizers or nebulizer for antibiotic resistant bacteria as well. Use for dogs, cats and humans.
Liquid Health Level 5000 - liquid joint supplementation with MSM and Vitamin C in it. I have used it with great success on my dogs and my elderly dogs respond well to joint nutritional supplementation. The amount of glucosamine in better dog foods is minimal, helpful nonetheless, but minimal, so a good joint supplement is ideal especially for any age or breed. I start my dogs during growth stages and continue throughout their adult life. With the large/giant breeds their joints have added stressed, so any thing that can help support them as they age is a positive thing in my opinion.

Skin Problems ~ Allergies ~ Ear Infections

If you have a dog/cat with skin problems, ear infections and/or allergies, please look at the these articles on Systemic Yeast Infections and Instructions for Removal of Yeast. You will note the Blackwatch Feed Program is set up to help prevent Systemic Yeast Overgrowh but if you have a dog that already has a skin problem then you need to add one more component to the program and that is Blackleaf an anti-parisitic and anti-fungside. You also need to follow directions to a T when it comes to the yeast removal kit.

Which Eagle Do I Choose?

I never know which Eagle foods are available overseas so you may have to write me with a list then, I can tell you which ones to use for your situation.

Eagle Natural Pack (23% protein / 12% fat) - I use this product from weaning through adulthood for all breeds, it is the most versatile of all the Eagle Formulas. It is ideal for large/giant growth if you do not have Eagle Super Premium or Holistic Select Large/Giant Breed Formula available. It is in essence, the same food.

If I have an animal that we are starting to show (dog shows) and they need more weight, I can safely switch to the Eagle Original Pack or Holistic Chicken or Large/Breed Adult, which are higher caloric foods. However, I do not switch to a higher calorie food until 10 months of age, as I want them to grow slow and even during the drastic growth stages.

Note: When not showing and adult or after retiring a dog from the show ring, I use the Eagle Natural Pack as my basic food unless they need more weight - I can use Eagle Original, or any of the adult foods.

For weight loss and seniors I use Eagle Holsitic Senior - a terrific senior food.

Sensitive digestion I suggest Eagle Holistic Select Lamb/Rice.

For skin issues (in adults!) I use Eagle Holistic Duck or Holistic Select Anchovy,Salmon/Sardine and Eagle Holistic Select Lamb/Rice.

For pregnant bitches I use: Eagle Original (25% protein / 15% fat) or Eagle Holistic Chicken (24% protein 15% fat). I start them on the higher protein half way through their pregnancy and continue until the puppies are 3-4 months old so her body is repaired from the stress of the litter.

Toy, small breed adults and puppies Eagle Super Premium Small/Med Breed Puppy 28%protein and 17% fat or Eagle Holistic Chicken.

Medium breed Adults and Puppies - Eagle Holistic Chicken and Eagle Original

For young adult large/giant breeds 15+ months that need show weight - my favorite is Eagle Super Premium Small/Med Breed Puppy 28%protein and 17% fat. In 30 days it builds muscle mass and look terrific for the show ring.
This works well on bitches with extremely large litters too.

Why Eagle Senior is Visionary
This is a remarkable food for older dogs (5 yrs +). We are told older dogs need less when in fact they need more protein, usable protein to hold muscle mass to support the bones. Nutrients need to be higher to replace greater needs for the elderly. Everyone reports higher energy levels with this food and that has been my experience. It also has joint support nutrition, which is very important for the geriatric animal.

For Pregnant and lactating bitches see my feed program.
For Weaning - see weaning feed program

Amount to Feed for Large Giant Breeds

Puppies and older dogs should NEVER be placed on a lite or low-protein diet. Cut back the amount you feed rather than switching to a lower protein and lower fat. They need the nutrients for their organs and brain cells and their coats will suffer drastically.
