You process your own bone and offal? Use a meat grinder? Sorry if my questions sound stupid but I'm trying to improve my ignorance on the subject. Can you give an example, as in what type of meat, which bones, and what offal? I want to switch my dog and cats to home made My mother in law used ground turkey, rice, veggies and she put raw garlic in the barn dog's food because he had heartworms when they rescued him off the road by the farm. People say raw garlic is bad for dogs but she put two cloves a day in his food and he lived for 10 years with heartworms that the vets claimed to be unable to get rid of. So I am interested to learn more about better ways to feed pets. I appreciate your time replying.
Not at all boring. And I know they say garlic is a no no but the worms were in his heart by then and he was doing that weird hacking cough that heart worms cause. I saw her feed it raw, cut up, in the cooked food, for almost a decade. He didn't die. The cough got better. The vet couldn't believe it. I think in her case it was a hail Mary effort that for her and Hobo (his name) worked. I never thought to feed dogs uncooked chicken bones. You taught me a lot in a short post. It is appreciated, and I'd always like to learn more. Thank you for taking the time to share information.
I don't make my own, I buy a commercial mix from a local company, I couldn't make it for what it costs me(I pay around 1£ per chub(454g), I get 34 chubs per box and a box takes from 30.99 to 36gbp, it's quite expensive with 2 dogs(even on a budget brand) works out to around 100-120gbp per month, but they're condition is fantastic and we believe that it's the best thing for them.
After speaking with vets and trying many different feeds to get our 1 dog to use the toilet and be firm(took 18 months) we decided to try raw,within 2 days he was constipated and has always produced normal crap ever since, I wouldn't have believed the transformation if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes. Another deciding factor was that a vet quoted to me that 50% of dogs over the age of ten now have cancer, well simple logic suggests that it has to be something to do with the food they're eating and once you know how they make this shit, you wouldn't feed it to a rat(well you may because you might want a rat to die, but you get the point) look it up and research, it's awful. I will link a site just to give you an idea of products etc available.
