It was a big deal that we've been able to check beef off a list of things that are okay for Rigby to eat. The reason why is that means he gets to have bully sticks! All my dogs get to chew on bully sticks or compressed rawhide sticks before meals while I'm getting their bowls ready. It serves a dual purpose - it cleans their teeth and more importantly it keeps their mouths busy so they don't bark and carry on while I'm fixing their meals. Rigby was never a complainer but a couple of the other dogs are so it can get loud while I'm fixing meals.
Rigby absolutely loves these chews and is so happy when he gets one that he runs in his crate, all full of wiggles, waiting for me to hand it over.
Once we know his skin infection is cleared up then we will be trying out some commercially prepared food in hopes of finding something that will be easier for an adopter to fix for him since not a lot of people want to cook for their dogs.
