I have huge resovations about feeding tripe alone - dogs need their dried food for the nutrition - I have seen dogs fed on tripe alone and they lack bone etc yes it may put the weight on but it doesnt give a balanced diet.

Re: Tripe would it be ok to feed it on its .....

I would'nt feed tripe on its own as it does not contain everything a dog needs, have you tried soaking the dry food in a little water first to soften it (this worked for my border collie) or you could try coating it in a little gravy they love it (not too much though, dont want a tubby pooch or diarhorrea)

Re: Tripe would it be ok to feed it on its .....

Do you buy the tripe fresh from a butcher? or frozen? and how do you cook it...cos my mom used to cook it in milk but that's no good for dogs is it expensive?
