Its not the best of foods.

Might not be the best but at the time ( over 25 years ago) it was the best I could get it was either sheep’s tripe and the odd head or kibble so I choose the tripe as a better option and them dogs were grafted harder than any I’ve ever owned.

You must be about the same age as me, back then it was a lot more wormy than it is now. Can you remember black bomb wormers?

Dogs have very Catholic digestions and do very well on a variety of diets, bit of variety helps mind.

Hadn’t heard of them joe. Used to get my wormers off an old greyhound trainer that lived a couple of miles away, wormers a bottle of duramitex freezer full of tripe and sheep’s heads a couple of bales of decent straw was all the dogs ever needed back then. Seems folks myself included have made things more complicated than they need to be.
