RubyTex 1,957 Posted February 2, 2014 Report Share Posted February 2, 2014 How much do you reckon I should give to an 18 kg bitch and a 24 kg dog? I've been cutting a chicken carcass down the middle for them, then giving the dog 1lb of meat (mince) with a slice of brown bread and sometimes liver or tripe.. The bitch I've been giving about 600g of meat with a slice of brown bread and again sometimes liver or tripe. Noticing a massive improvement in shite quality!! Any ideas or tips? Cheers Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Only thing i dont understand is feeding the dog tripe. i cant think of any nutritional value that it has, at all. can anyone shed some light on it, i understand liver/kidney etc.as they'll have plenty of iron, load of vitamins, minerals, even calcium.

Would it be used as a filler/packer for a meal to pad it out a bit then? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
