Mix it like readybreke not to thik, I do put some on my fingers at first so they can lick it off. The hold the bowl slowly up to them till they get the idea.
I always give the pups there own bowl. I use the little flat plastic ones at first the ones they use for cats.
They do get to love it.

Do you have to be a member of the Pedigree Breeders Club - if there is one to be able to get the Puppy Porridge?  I've never seen it available in shops etc.  Is there a contact email/number?

Thank you :)

P.S  Sounds like your pups are having fun!!

Have seen in online but  picked some up yesterday at champ show from Pedigree stand and it was £10 cheaper. Hope to start my little ones on it in next few weeks............there may be a Pedigree collection point near you (dont think you have to be in the breeder programme?????)

If you have a food processor you can make you own puppy porridge. Just dampen some puppy complete, (I use royal canin) until it is soft but not mushy, whizz it in the processor until it is like very fine breadcrumbs and then add an equal quantity of milk powder, Lactol or similar. Put it in an airtight container and use as for the bought puppy porridge.

Is that really what the puppy porridge is?  I've not bought it before.
- By Saxon [gb] Date 03.06.08 16:12 UTC
Yes, thats all it is and it's quite expensive if you buy the ready prepared stuff. Much cheaper to make your own.
- By Blossom [gb] Date 03.06.08 16:31 UTC
Wow - you (I) learn a new thing every day!  So it's the same amount weight wise of lactol as it is the puppy biscuits?
