Raw Feeding Video Diary HD | Pitbull vs. Rainbow Trout

Watch in HD!
Yuki gets a rainbow trout for dinner. It's actually her second fish ever, not the first, but I didn't have a camera around for the first, so we'll pretend. 24 hours after fish number one, with no ill effects, I gave her this fish.

Once I read information from Tom Lonsdale, Veterinary Surgeon, I began feeding my "kitchen wolf" a raw diet. Joining the RawFeeding list on Yahoo* made the experience much less stressful, and with practice I've found it to be a surprisingly easy way to feed. As a bonus, it's less expensive than the designer kibble I was buying and I can get nice treats like fresh farmed trout once in a while.

IMPORTANT: Note that individual animals and circumstances may vary. You may need to discuss your pets needs with your veterinarian. I assume no responsibility or liability for the well being of anyone's pet - I'm just doing what I think is best for mine.

@misorange She eats better than me too!

[MrMisanthrope1]

the bones can kill, there are all sorts of fish parisites that can be transfered to dogs, all fish should be cooked, tapeworms tapeworms and more tapeworms

[m0t0k0kusanagi]

@MrMisanthrope1 // Definitely don't feed fish if you don't feel safe doing so. I freeze all seafood for 7+ days before feeding. I would love to link to a study called "FREEZING TO KILL NEMATODE PARASITES IN FISH PRODUCTS" by Peter Howgate, May 1998, but no links in comments allowed. In short, "Freezing to control the hazard from parasites in fishery products is as follows... a) Freeze ... to below -20°C at the thermal centre; b) Store at or below -20°C for at least 24 hours."

Hello.

I am wanting to start my bull terrier mix on the raw diet. Can you explain the benefits of fish to me?

[m0t0k0kusanagi]

@piepeace AFAIK, fish is a luxury item.... I haven't given my girl fish for a quite a while b/c it's just too expensive right now. Many raw feeders use fish or an oil supplement to add Omega-3 to the diet since commercially raised animals don't have much, if any, O-3. Makes for a great treat, but it's not required to keep a balanced raw diet.

Raw food is the only way to feed your animals. It helps regulate moods and keeps a healthy animal with a healthy attitude! 11 thumbs up man thats awesome

[mroboiz]

who can eat that ugly fish! only a dog can do this they are crazy

[MrFriggoff]

So should all meat be frozen before fed?

[ben7551]

I don't know about this... my pit bulls prefer baked.

[ThePoorArab]

only thing i dont like about this video is the pits mouth gonna smell like fish : ( i hate fish smell lol !

[maharley27]

i thought rainbow trout had alot of spiney thorns in the fleshy parts. It doesnt bother the dogs. I guess not, im sure wolves eat it just like that too.

[maharley27]

@m0t0k0kusanagi -Yeah, i heard a vet say that freezing for three days kills parasites in raw foods such as beef, poultry, fish. It is perfectly fine to feed raw. Its what i feed my lil' dog :)
