Re: Raw Feeding Discussion

I feed raw and 95% of the meat is frozen before hand as I get it delivered that way. They have much the same as Alan, they also get Holistic Wholebake mixer. I wouldnt ever go back to feeding complete - I think raw is more........................ natural shall we say

I agree it can and does make a lot of dogs fussy eaters but feeding different meats also helps to avoid them developing allergies as well as providing a wider range of nutrients!

What's "Holistis Wholebake Mixer" and what do you do with it? Mix it with the raw meat?

For muscle meat I feed chicken wings, legs, breasts, lamb chops and legs, turkey legs and beef mince and steaks.

For organ meat I feed lamb liver, heart and kidneys and chicken livers.

I find raw beef mince is brilliant for filling kongs.

Most of of the muscle meat I feed contain bones but when it's possible I also get knuckle bones.

I have found that lamb goes down best of all. They all love it and stools are perfect everytime so they get lamb the most out of all the meats.

While the pups will eat virtually any raw meat Milo can be quite picky and if he knows there's lamb defrosting he will refuse to eat chicken or turkey so I now have to be clever and not let him see the lamb come out the freezer.
one of the best foods used to be sheeps heads you boil them split them in half andthey eat the lot keeps a good back them my mate used to get them ,and bring me some now and then they were good for keeping worms away aswell the fur on there heads would pass through and drag any worms out we used to get full tripes as well they were good as well used to feed four dogs for next to nothing costs me a bomb now ifeed wainwrights dry its a good one dogs look well onit

Well I buy it from Landywoods - if you go on their site it explains what it is - they recommend you feed the Wholebake on its own for one meal and the meat meal separate. I tried that and mine werent keen on the Wholebake on its own so they get it mixed in with their meat - obviously not if its wings or heart
