What did your dog(s) eat today?

[anna_66]

Sarah it's great to hear the puppies are doing so well and you've converted yet another family to raw (it's the best thing I've ever done for my dogs!)

I know I posted I was buying a 1/2 a side of beef, well I picked it up a couple weeks ago.
I had no idea of how to tell them how to cut it up so of course it's prepared for human consumption (in my terms means lots and lots of hamburger ). The guy there told me just to let them know next time that I want as little hamburger as possible and they can cut me up big chuncks. He said he also feeds his dog raw and she's still going strong at 16!!!
Anyways I just had to get a couple pictures for you all to see.
You'll love this...

Bon thinks all the yummy food is for him. Notice him trying to get a sniff

And a picture after it was all put away, he's still thinking it's all his...LOL!

Little does he know there's food there for all of us, not just him

And as for their meals today...
Pork Should Butt for everyone with liver and an egg for a snack later.

Yep, she started her dog on it before I could even send her information! She just fed him what she was feeding the puppies (without the puppy formula ). She said that after two meals "his stool was just beautiful!" LOL. So I typed up some info on how to start him off and then told her to call me when she's ready for more info

She has 16 cats (14 of them are fosters) ... I wonder what she'll do when I tell her that raw is better for cats too! LOL.

I was without a computer for almost a week. (Dell does NOT follow through with their next day service guarantee like they say they do). I can't remember exactly what they ate for every meal so I'll just start from last night. lol

First here's the pics of the WHOLE beef lung (with attached trachea, heart, liver, splean etc..). This one was one of the smaller ones, weighing in at about 45lbs. Sorry I didn't really get more pics but I was getting sick & tired of cutting. lol
The "hole" in the upper section is the trachea, you can see some intestine next to the trachea and fat (white stuff), the pink middle section is the lung and the dark section at the bottom is the splean. The heart & liver were under the blob of beef stuff.



Here's the litte freezer I got for $35. It actually holds more than you think. It might be short but it's pretty deep. I wasn't even done packing it yet and at this point I had 6 whole chickens, 3-10lb bags of chicken quarters, 4 packs of pork feet, 4 packs of pork neck bones, about 20lbs of pork butt shoulder roast, 50lbs of beef "stuff", 10lbs of ground turkey, 2 big ziplock bags of chicken feet and some misc venison, chicken organs, pork extras in there too. I forgot to take a pic of it after I was done packing it, which ended up being about 25 more pounds of the same items. I also forgot to take picks of the freezer I share with the dogs, half of it is still theirs.



Last night's dinner:

Nanook:
beef lung
quarter of a chicken
2 chicken feet
chicken liver

Raustyk:
beef lung
half a chicken

Kaige:
beef lung
pork butt shoulder roast
chicken neck

Indy:
beef lung
quarter of a chicken


I cut up a whole chicken and it was good size so the quarters were actually bigger than that of a chicken quarter you'd normally find in the store.

Wow, my beef lung looks so puney next to yours



I want what you've got! LOL

[lv4dogs]

I want what you've got! LOL

Believe me, you'd probably want to keep what you got. It is a PAIN cutting it up. It took me about 2-2.5 hours to chop up 2 beef lungs & the extras. I even used super sharp butcher knives that my father gave me and that doesn't even include bagging it, I had help with that part. After cutting up the first section I kind of gave up & cut the second one into BIG pices which I cut up into smaller sections as needed. I totally gave up on the third one & gave it to the dogs whole. lol
