My staffy is nearly 4 mths and I would like to start feeding him tripe, what is the ideal age to do this and how often shoud I feed him this. Should I feed him anything else in addition to the tripe.

Thanks..

It really depends on how you want to feed him.

If you're feeding raw, then you can give him tripe any time you want. If you're giving it as an occasional treat, be careful because it will pack on weight before you know it!

A word of warning....tripe (apart from being stinky!) will tend to make your dog's poo softer, so just be prepared!

Thanks for the info.

I was going to feed him raw tripe. Should i mix this with something else or would he be fine on a tripe only diet??

if you are wanting to feed him instead of dry food, tins etc then no you can't just feed tripe, look at this website as it explains the 'raw' diet well.

Yes, don't feed any raw meat exclusively if you can help it. I give Dempsey lamb, beef, pork & venison (when I can get it). I can't give him chicken cause his stomach is allergic to it!

I gave chase tripe as a treat a few times, but it made his poo so soft i gave up! Um not sure if it effects every dog in this way, or if his just a bit intolerant of it. I give him chicken, beef or lamb instead now.
