raw questions

Thank you in advance for helping with a bizillion questions

So far I am able to source:

Chicken backs (with fat)
Chicken necks
Chicken feet
Cow heels
Dirty tripe
Clean tripe
Chicken liver
Beef liver
Ox tongues
Sheep heads
Ox hearts
Ox kidneys
Spleen
Pigs heads
various bones and ribs, of course

What is the difference between clean and dirty tripe?

Is there anything on the list I should rather not feed?

When it comes to fish, my questions were answered earlier. I may stay away from tuna as this hasn't agreed with them in the past. A bit of salmon, mackaral, sardines, hake etc should be fine, right?

Supplement-wise, is it necessary to add anything else, for example, olive oil, ACV, honey, omega 3, vitamins etc?

Thanks!!

everything on the list i'd feed it's a good variety!

With tripe you want green unwashed tripe which i assume would be the dirty tripe, clean tripe tends to be washed and bleached for human consumption which has no nutrition value for dogs.

With salmon do make sure it's not from the pacific northwest as that can contain parasites else where is good

No you don't NEED to supplement and certainly not when just starting out get the diet going first before you think about it.

Have you looked at the guide at the top of this page

www.preymodelraw.com

don't forget to take it slowly when starting out

Thanks a mill Ella.

Yes, I've read the link and anything else I can get my hands on. I want to be as clued up as possible before I even make my first purchase! (in bulk, of course)

Good to know about the tripe - I've seen that green is more easily available which is great.

Thanks for the tip re: supplements. And definitely will take it slow starting out. That said, I just know they're going to go mad for it

My two love green tripe ! Full of nutrients and goodness.

Now I give bits of lots of stuff like Pure fish oil, garlic, kelp seaweed, coconut oil etc but TBH when I first started to feed raw all I fed was hearts and and chicken bones and even with just feeding that I seen an improvement.

All very good to know, thanks

I give various supplements:

Tank has daily:

Garlic & Fenugreek tablets x2
Vitamin B complex
Zinc
Selenium
Apple Cider Vinegar

Wow, it's great to hear the options!

I'm looking forward to my pups being able to eat easily digestible food. I can literally hear there tummy's struggling to digest kibble.

I give Saffy tinned sardines or mackerel usually as I can get them from the 99p shop but I will give any fresh whole oily fish that I can get cheap to be honest. It's worth looking for reduced stuff Although I don't give her the tinned more than 2x week as it can/has given her looser stools ( ) in the past (Has extra oils I guess). And I also, like yourself, don't give canned tuna as it has none of the lovely oils in it like salmon/sardines etc. but fresh tuna is good

I am looking at raw food for Duke as the quality kibble is SO $$$$ here in OZ and from what I have read so far it seems to be much better for them also! I found a store that has a few things for me to get and ill be heading there tommorow! The list has helped me so thanks I will be researching some more before starting it and starting off slow.

Ella your posts have been of great value

Thanks casey
