eggs

[Gina Heitz <brier@oregonsbest.com>]

Leigh asked about eggs a few days ago since I piped up and said I don't 
feed raw egg whites to puppies.  In either GYDAB or GYPWB Billinghurst 
talks about intolerance to egg whites and allergies down the road with 
reference to young pup's.  This is why I have chosen to omit whites form 
puppies diets.  If you are already feeding whole eggs then the "damage" is 
done...  I wouldn't be concerned but if down the road you start having some 
sort of allergy problems omit eggs and see if things clear up.

With puppies and raw diets I feel you need to introduce foods slowly like 
one new food at a time ( one new food a week).  This is how human babies 
are introduced to new foods and how allergies to foods are ruled out.

Off to bed,
