Feeding Flesh


Recommended Posts


what kind of meat does everyone use my dogs have half raw mince and a good protein biscuits

 

Whole rabbit, hare, pheasant, fish, squirrel, the odd rat etc. Also chicken (whole, halves etc), lamb breasts/necks, pig trotters and heads, ox tails (whole), meaty rib racks... whatever's available and free/cheap basically. Variety is the spice of life.

 

Just a tip fella, take it or leave it, but I'd veer towards raw meaty bones rather than just raw mince as mince alone does not help keep teeth clean (and neither do biscuits). Plenty of fur, feather and bone is the way to go :D
