    Georgina and Gwylim are fed a "home cooked" diet and pumpkin, usually butternut, is one thing I always add to their veggies. I swear by butternut for keeping them "regular" and it's very rarely either of them have an upset tummy. I'm actually quite proud of my pooches perfect poo!

    That was well worth reading, thank you Malka.

    I think sweet potato is very good too (and delicious!)

    I have never seen canned pumpkin Vee - I buy large chunks of it, cube, blanch and open freeze before packing it in bags, just taking out as much as I want at a time.

    @GsdSlave Canned pumpkin seems to be a popular ingredient in the US, but I have been unable to source it in GB. As it is highly recommended for Eddie's bowel condition, can I please ask where you have been able to get it from?

    Thanks for that Tina and Vee - we must be a bit backward round here, I'll have to widen my net.
