Where do you buy all your raw food. Not the meat but the tripe and lungs and all that. And is it too terribly expensive?
-
where do you get these
-
Great video and I do agree with you dogs will and should eat fruit / veg and leafy greens. Dogs are carnivourus omnivours exactly the same as us ! look at their dental structure, and their digestive system.

i just taught my dog the "wait and Eat" commands :D
so awesome
-
Thanks for this great video! You're dog is very cute too. I have a few questions, how much should I feed my dog? Does it go by weight? Mine is 17ish pounds. And how often? Twice a day? Or one bowl of what you just made and raw meaty bones? Thanks again man =)
-
i heard that leaving the egg shells in the food was beneficial for them too. any feedback?
-
@musicfreak6730 You can buy a canned raw diet - it's expensive, but it is almost equally beneficial. I ran into this same issue. It should be sold in any boutique pet shop.
-
I can feed your dog the egg shell, is just fine!

@stunner4500 Do one thing? Join this Facebook group. It is a group of over 6,000 people...The largest raw-feeding Facebook group that there is. They know anything and everything about feeding raw...Tell them why you think that dogs need these leafy greens...I'm honestly curious as to what their response would be.

@stunner4500 You do realize that WHEAT is one of the leading causes of food allergies in dogs, right? You do know that veggies and wheat grass contain carbs. In dogs, carbs feed cancers, and are inflamitory(hence why so many dogs have problems with them). Dogs do not have the digestive enzymes in their saliva that begins the process of breaking down plant matter. This puts a strain on the entire GIT, especially the pancreas.

@adrixx1995 Not a myth, Wolves eat the intestines and some of the digested food inside it! Go ask sheep farmers in Montana!
-
@5tonyvvvv That is a myth, that they eat the intestinal contents. When a wolf makes a kill, they eat everything but the stomach/intestines. Then they shake out the contents of the stomach and intestines and eat the actual stomach/intestine walls, they do not consume the matter inside of them.
And yes, they do eat grass in small amounts. Just like your dog does in your back yard.

I'm wanting to put my dog on a raw diet, but I'm hesitant because we go camping a lot and for a week or more at a time. i know i can keep her on it with my own cooler and frozen meat but probably won't because of my grandmother. lolz! but i'm worried it won't be safe to feed her it for whatever reason so would it be fine to keep her on a kibble)(small amounts) so that she will have food for those times. Will that harm her? I wouldn't change it abruptly obvoiusly, but still. i'm curious.

That's a great dog there! really considering feeding my English Mastiff raw, at the mo hes eating 12-14 cups of dry food a day and its a premium one too so very expensive, he is 10 months old160lbs. I do give him raw chicken breast cut up into pieces as treats every day though. Great video. Thanks
-
dude youve got some serious chop skills
-
Is raw okay for puppies?
-
HOW MANY TIMES A DAY TO YOU FEED YOUR DOG THIS FOOD.......PLEASE REPLY....
-
Lucky dog.. this is how all dogs should be fed! Au Natural!
-
@adrixx1995 Not true dogs need some minerals found in plants, and when a wolf makes a kill they always eat the intestines which are full of plant matter! and Wolves will eat grass in small amounts!
There's only a couple problems with this.
First off, you shouldn't chop the stuff up. Whole slabs of meat that they have to chew/tear helps improve muscle in their jaws/neck.
Second, Dogs don't need vegtables of ANY kind. Look at their teeth...those are carnivour teeth, not omnivour teeth.
Third, he needs bone. Dogs need 10% bone, 10% organ, and 80% meat.
Great looking dog, though.

@adrixx1995
Couple problems? you mentioned three here, lol.
Its not good to feed slabs of meat all the time. Chopping still allows chewing, makes packing easy, and how else are you going to mix all those ingredients together.
And don't take that 10 10 80 formula too seriously, as long as they get what the body needs within a week thats fine. Leave the formula's for your chemistry class! lol
By the way, dogs do need vegetables, why else do they graze on grass in the wild.

@stunner4500 Who said that I was doing the 80/10/10 thing strictly? Nobody.
Yes, it is good to feed slabs of meat all the time. Even better to feed whole, large prey. It is mental stimulation, it is a good jaw/neck workout, unlike feeding chopped up meats. Chopped up meats do not clean teeth the same way that larger pieces do. Also, chopped up meats making it easy for a dog to gulp their food.
Again, they don't need vegtables. Dogs are NOT omnivoures.

@adrixx1995 Thats right, dogs are not omnivores and the vegetables are not meant to be a food source, they are used for cleansing and detox purposes (chlorophyll is the best known antioxidant). Remember its only Leafy greens/ wheat grass that i recommend.

Love the Video and Sireus too :-) I'm in a small town where it's hard to find or get whole Organs like you have or even the Green Tripe.. Can I get another type of Tripe?

@texangirl1964 Talk to your local butchers and farmers and see what you can get, any tripe from a "herbivore" will be good, never feed pork cuz pigs are omnivores.
Email me if you have any questions about the stuff you find in your town.
