Gaz_1989 9,539 Posted October 24, 2012 Report Share Posted October 24, 2012 Why does there need to be a scientific explanation or reason Peter? I dont have the answer to your question but I do know a lot of lads that feed it as a staple and the dogs look great on it and they perform on it. Isn’t this reason enough? Also I know that when a wild dog or whatever canivore for that matter makes a kill, it eats the stomach first? Atb Gaz 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

bunnys 1,228 Posted October 24, 2012 Report Share Posted October 24, 2012 peter one would assume tested over time with good results , the green tripe as some very good pluse namely the one mentioned probiotics we know this enables the gut to stay healthy and iinhibits appetite . they aint much else needed to make the diet decent brown bread good enough , some use biscuit of the wholemeal variety what eva one chooses there choice but tripe aint cheep bying per 1lb . i would allways consider the minced chicken not carcass breasts for a mix with the tripe and bits and extras the chicken if sourced can be cheeper . . than most meats ,whateva one uses variety is the key . atb bunnys.

BS40liam 203 Posted October 24, 2012 Report Share Posted October 24, 2012 Well I just gave my pup her 1st portion of green trip and she made it f+ck back! It wasn't a lot but she looks rather bloated now lol, and christ I opened up the rapper and all I could smell was cow shite! I've split a 1lb block into 5 smaller portions and at 1.50 for a lb I supose over a course of 5 days isn't that bad actually, she's only a small dog so that with mixer is plenty.

Sensible post.... Folk get all worked up over such matters,..whereas the truth is,..unless you are talking high performance dogs,..which require a well thought out diet,..raw green tripe,.mixed with various other 'bits and pieces',. is a nice meal for a lurcher,.or a terrier.... The problem today, is in locating a regular supplier (Abattoir)...that will sell you sheep paunches and Beef Tripe's, at a reasonable price.. Years ago,..I used to purchase sheep's heads, cow udder, hearts, kidneys..etc,.etc,.dirt cheap,..but, for most lads, them days are long gone....The Pet food guys who supply the 'Barf Party',..now rule the roost,. and purchase everything they can get... Such is life... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Atb Gaz gareth it dosent need to be a scientific reason just a common sense one will do your dogs are not wild animals they are domesticated pets that's a stupid comparison do you reckon Rooney and co still exist on steak of course not some people are stuck in the past with feeding you have to give a working dog the best chance Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Richie10 345 Posted October 25, 2012 Report Share Posted October 25, 2012 It puts weight on the dogs, what do dogs use for energy...fat. That is why they will lose weight quickly after some hard graft. Tripe is used in Barf to give a balance. I personally mix it with chicken mince. If used on it's own I can see where you are coming from. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The answer I gave you was not a stupid comparison. It was a common sense take on things. Rooney and co eat steak? Of course they do. I'm a semi pro boxer and pretty much live off steak, eggs, chicken, milk, veg etc. That's not changed much from boxers a few hundred years ago has it? Gaz Quote Link to post Share on other sites

bunnys 1,228 Posted October 26, 2012 Report Share Posted October 26, 2012 the reason such as tripe fatty etc, is the lamping type animal run hard over several nights will benefit from tripe they need to hold condition those taking large numbers and run 2 ta 3 night per week will if not naturally the type who hold condition welll when trun hard , go to nothing skin and bone . one of the reasons as some cana take excessive numbers on a night ids for this very fact as like a battery they run out, so to speak . the coursing type differs tfrom the lamping type and steps on the diet can be different fatts are the main fuel for the lamper chicken carcass backs etc tripe very little else needed . atb bunnys.
