What did your dog(s) eat today?

[gwen]

I have had him for 2 months he is 11 months old, he's had a thorough check at the vet and everything is fine with his teeth, the person who had him before me didnt feed him very well I dont think well not often, I think because of this I imagined that he would appreciate being fed well, but it isnt working out that way. As well as the web site you recommended I checked out a few others. I gave hime some chicken to start things off but a few sniffs and he walks off. Maybe I am worrying over nothing has he is full of energy and he looks healthy. As a mother I worry when my kids dont eat well, maybe i am just overthinking it, he seems happy enough, I just think he deserves more than a couple tins of dogs food a day. Thank you for taking an interest with my 'Puppy' (thats his name by the way and he's an alsation)

Very good. Glad you researched. Whatever you decided be consistent and be prepared. Raw Chicken was an excellant thing to start with. Also keep in mind not to mix kibble with raw. Sometimes that is why dogs throw up b/c their system can't take the slow to digest kibble vs the quickly digested raw meat. Once I started giving my golden raw - she hasn't had kibble since.

We need to start posting in this thread more often!


Moo just got his first taste of raw chicken, as far as I know. My mom was preparing chicken for the freezer and saved a few scraps for the dogs. Moo thought it was the best thing ever! He only got a bit, but he was crazy for it.


I hope to feed them a meal tomorrow ~ his first raw meal. I need to get back into raw but I've been too busy.

Mine continue to be on raw. Mostly chicken as that is what is most readily available around here. Although, tonight I cut up some pork chops for them and added some yogurt and an egg each. They all gulped it up. Sadie looks to be losing some weight, she needed to drop a few pounds. Grant looks to have lost some as well, he needed to lose more than a couple. Maggie is holding steady with her doggie supermodel body. Mine have been on raw now for probably 6 or so months and I love it, so do the pups.

Oh, I forgot to mention - my coworker goes hunting and got a deer. He gave me some venison for the dogs. Haven't given it to them yet. Maybe I'll get it out of the freezer to thaw it now..

do not give too much venison.. Remember it is really low in fat and very rich...
My guys love it, but I have found in serious moderation.. Like a good size cube.

Yep, I don't give too much "foreign" meats, mostly chicken and beef with a bit of fish and such here and there. If anything, this venison will be a snack/treat for them.

A cup of Nature's Variety kibble, a slice of cheese, and a raw egg. I miss feeding raw....maybe I have the time now....

There was a sale on beef brisket a couple weeks ago so I bought two 15-16 lb ones.
Needless to say they've had that a few times a week plus turkey wings and legs along with beef liver, beef heart and beef kidney.
They've also shared a couple pork butt roasts.

Keegan's been working on a turkey this week.
And due to her weight gain (before the raw diet)
I am journaling the amount she eats so if she eats a bit more one day I can
cut her back the next.
I brought some stuff (mostly chicken, with a pork liver, and deer meat) out the freezer this morning but the only thing that is probably fully thawed is chicken livers.

I just bought some Farmore yesterday... my old boss was there, and he gave me 20 lbs for less than $30!

Thought I'd bump this back up

Kai and Kaedyn had ground chicken w/bone for breakfast.

Keeva has been getting cooked moose for the past couple days. Today she finally accepted a completely raw meal! She had ground beef.

I wanted to bring this thread back from the dead to add - and I'm serious - I JUST ATE GREEN TRIPE!!!1 D:<

Everyone in my family smelled the green tripe when I was getting it out for the dogs, and gagging... and my sister bet me $20 that I wouldn't eat it. So, being that I am really bad at turning down any bets, I did it. And it was horrible. And I hate myself. My boyees, on the other hand, eat it like it's candy.

If you've never smelled green tripe, picture if you will, a porty-potty filled with meat... and left out in 100 degree weather for a week. Now you can imagine why I hate myself.

[shais_mom]

omg?!
are you sick yet?

I have never seen it other than the green tripe that was canned by Solid Gold and I have a feeling that it doesn't come close to the 'real stuff'.
Only for $20
