What did your dog(s) eat today?

I've been reading a lot and found out that you should feed pieces as large as their head to keep them from choking and/or gulping their food.
I had bought some chicken legs on sale and gave them but they just gobbled. Does anyone else have gobblers?

Kai's not a gobbler anymore but he used to swollow wings whole when he was young. It scared the heck out of me! I had to hold onto smaller bones for a while but he seemed to understand that he had to chew so he's fine now.

I see a lot of you feed tripe. Do you order it? I've never seen anything around here except for the bleached tripe they have at the grocery and I know that's of no nutritional value.

I feed tons of tripe! It smells horrid but the dogs LOVE it and it's pretty darn cheap too! The place I get it from sells it for .68 a pound. I also found a wholesale priced butcher who carry it.

Try your local butchers, who knows, maybe they'll be able to order it for you if they don't normally carry it.

I've been slowly switching the girls over to a raw diet. I started a few weeks ago by giving them a chicken leg every once in awhile. I had some chicken legs and was curious to see if they would even eat it. Tori was a bit hesitant at first, but it was only for a few seconds really..lol. Katie is the one who really surprised me. Katie is a picky eater. She doesn't eat much and often skips meals. She immediately knew what that first chicken leg was all about and ate that thing like she had been waiting for that kind of meal her whole life. It actually felt good to watch her eat with such gusto. They have been getting the chicken legs along with their kibble still and then this week they have had chicken quarters every day and the other day they refused to bother with their kibble/can food mix. They just stuck their noses up in the air and looked at me like...."Ok, where is the good stuff"? Not for sure where this will go. Just taking it day by day and seeing how they do, act and feel.

Here are the girls enjoying their chicken quarters today

Oh Yum! They certainly look like they are enjoying it Robin . It really is enjoyable watching them eat and enjoy "real" food isn't it?

Today my two got EVO and yogurt for breakfast and ground beef and beef liver for dinner. They'll get a homemade frosty paw later
