    make sure you do your research on it first before you feed it.

    I haven't seen any rabbit around here :/

    Curiosity, why don't either of you feed pig?

    Reggie Make sure you do research. There's a lot to know. This thread is actually very helpful and if you go back a few pages there is a Raw video I did that may be helpful to you. But if your parents say no, don't force it on them. My mom is very open to Raw now and actually suggests it. Today she said Roxy eats better than we do .

    Mainly, I don't like feeding anything that has a reputation for carrying trichinosis. When I feed pig organs, I always cook it. Granted, meat in general carries a wide array of parasites (tapeworms and beef, for example), but I've just always been under the notion that pork is not a good food for humans and I sort of transferred that belief onto my dogs. It's extremely high in saturated fat and cholesterol, and I doubt the nutritional benefits are superior to any other less-fatty meat. I just really don't like pork

    Ah, okay. Well, the pig's feet is all we got anyways. The rest of the pork was outrageously expensive. And the chicken quarters we usually get were $9 a bag at the grocery store so we're going to get them elsewhere where they're only $4.90 a bag.

    Pork has a reputation of being a "dirty" meat. It's also very fatty and salty.

    I've only fed it once, after it was in the freezer for about a month to hopefully kill off anything icky. I would do that with the pigs feet as well.

    Ever fed tripe? That is by far, the smelliest thing you could ever feed your dog. NASTY! I want to vomit thinking of it.

    nope I only bought the walmart honeycomb stuff before I found out it wasn't good for them - that was gross enough just watching her even tho there was no smell.

    I bought Solid Gold Green Tripe - canned one time - wayyy before Raw and Keeg wouldn't even eat it!
