Would you eat lungs?,same as tripe its shite,give your dog decent food,you are going for the cheap option. Tripe is far from shite, full of nutrients. Lung is decent too and is classed as a muscle meat in a raw diet. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Giro 2,648 Posted November 13, 2016 Report Share Posted November 13, 2016 Lungs ain't muscle, it's a organ.. Classed as "lights" and would be considered inferior to tripe in nutritional value. Part of a balanced diet it's okay but it would not be the bulk of any of my feeding regimes.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Giro 2,648 Posted November 14, 2016 Report Share Posted November 14, 2016 Ray most meat is 70 odd % moisture.. Tripe is a super food for dogs. Stinks like shit but good scran never the less.. 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ox1973 2 Posted November 14, 2016 Report Share Posted November 14, 2016 If we are talking about a balanced diet everything mentioned here is good, obviously wouldn't make lung the bulk of a diet but generally in the barf diet it is classed as a muscle meat. The secreting organs (liver,pancreas, Kidney) are classed as offal. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
