What did your dog(s) eat today?

[.sarah]

Mandy had green tripe and lamb neck bones.





The Labs had green tripe, an egg, and 1/3 of a beef penis. Ew, lol.



I was gagging having to cut up the tripe. That stuff is rancid!

And I thought Bully Sticks were gross.......

(I do feed bully sticks occasionally, but I think they are nasty, now that...noooooo way lol)

Yesterday Nebo had 12 Nature's Variety raw venison medallions

Today Nebo had 1 cup Nature's Variety venison dry, 1 cup Natural Balance venison dry+canned salmon and 1 1/2 tsps skin and coat suppliment

LOL. For whatever reason I didn't think it was actually going to look like a beef willy. Because of the way it was packaged I thought it was cut up into a few pieces, but nope, it was totally and completely whole. Looked exactly like it should. Made me wish I was wearing gloves! My hands felt nasty all day today, and I washed them a lot before I even felt safe eating, which was hours after the dogs ate.

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

[.sarah]

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

[lv4dogs]

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

birthday cake was dessert.

[lv4dogs]

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.

[bckrazy]

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

[CathyBogart]

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.

[Jadapit]

Wow Anna, thats a lot of meat. I'm jealous. My dad loves cracklings. We really lucked out my father in laws wifes dad gave us a freezer. Now we need to get busy and fill it up.

They did!

I ordered it and a whole bunch of other stuff from Prey4Pets. She delivers to the Eastern half of the US, so you might want to check it out

Lucky you! Wish we could have been so lucky because ordering all this meat sure is taking a chunk out of the ol' wallet But it should last for a very long time!

I just signed up there recently but haven't checked out how to do the ordering yet. Thanks

No problem If you go to the files section there will be a menu of what she carries. I think right now she doesn't have much in stock, because she just got a walk-in freezer so that she could carry more stuff, and she had a big sale (that's when I ordered ). In the future she'll be carrying horse, mutton, goat, and some other meats

She also has wonderful customer service, cheap shipping for the amount she sends, and great products Everything is humanely raised, beef is grass-fed, poultry is pastured, etc. I can't reccomend her enough!
