What did your dog(s) eat today?

[Vela]

All I can say is I could have gone my whole life without seeing THAT thing in a bowl.....I dunno how you cut it up, and just would NOT want dog kisses after theat meal Sarah LOL....so ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

They all had half of a pork roast today.

All I can say is I could have gone my whole life without seeing THAT thing in a bowl.....

LOL me too! I don't know why I didn't think of what it would look like when I ordered it

last night's dinner:
tuna
salmon
egg
liver
pig feet

birthday cake was dessert.

Even though everyone was feeling fine & everything was ok in the evening, we skipped dinner last night because someone(s) had a little diarrhea yesterday morning/afternoon. (too much seafood & meat with not enough bones yesterday I think)
They made up for it this morning though, they got a way bigger breakfast than I usually feed:
Kaige & Raustyk each had:
a chicken quarter
beef steak
chicken foot

Nanook & Indy each had:
a chicken quarter
chicken foot
egg

Kaige & Indy will be having an afternoon snack in a little bit, half a pigs foot/leg each.

I upped Kaige's food intake a little, he eats close to what Raustyk eats now. You see we have been increasing our hiking by walking an extra 1-3 miles the last 1.5 weeks or so. He was doing great maintaining his weight before but now that we are getting more exercise he's getting a touch skinnier. He's happy with it so lets hope it works! Indy seems to be holding her weight well though with the excess hiking. Maybe it is because she is older? Maybe her body takes longer to catch up? I don't know but I'm keeping a close eye on her just to be sure.
Raustyk & Nanook have not had an increase in their exercise due to their joint problems.

Everyone finished up their roast today.

I just wanted to say... LMAO @ Sarah! You truly are no longer phased by this. I thought tripe was gross too, but, penis!? I hope your dogs enjoyed that

Jasper had a beef rib for breakfast, dinner will be more game hen. I've been cutting pieces off of it every day, two more and it should be gone.

Sarah I have to agree with everyone when they say what a meal that must have been (btw...where did you order it from?)

Since we're on the subject of gross, we went Tuesday and picked up our whole hog. Now I've never been to a slaughter house and man...the smell hits you as soon as you get out of the car Even when we got into the office to pay the smell was horrid. Not an experience I'd like to have often.
When we paid the lady asked if we wanted any crackling. Of course I had no idea of what it was so I asked (fried pig skin). I guess people eat this...eewwwww! Nope not me, but the dogs sure love it. It's the new treat here
I took a couple pictures of my small freezer (9 cu. ft) and the house freezer


Both completely full! I don't know why but I didn't think it would take up so much room.
So with the side of beef coming, we had to go buy us a new freezer. The things we do for our dogs!

Today for breakfast mine split a 6 lb chicken and got a couple pieces of cracklin for a treat.

Has anyone ever fed their dogs sweetbreads? I gave some yesterday and they totally loved it! It's an expensive way to get Roxey to eat some organs.

Molli got Nutro Ultra. She got some cottage cheese and a little scrambled egg and cooked meat.

[bckrazy]

Anna, my pups have had sweetbreads! They love it! Your freezer is a w e s o m e, btw. Your 3 kids are LUCKY!

Gonzo just ate his portion of goose. He ate the neck, and a half of a leg quarter. He also got an egg, some cabbage & tomato, and some vanilla yogurt w/ banana for dessert. He wasn't eating anything this morning because of Fozzie being gone, but he gave in to all the good stuff I offered him tonight.

It's so sad not having Fozzie to feed. He's such a little porker, I am sure he's missing his dinner!

[lv4dogs]

I've fed sweetbreads and you are right, it's an EASY way to feed organs. It's a little pricey in my area & for some reason I always forget to discuss price/availability with my butchers so they don't get it often.
