peefa 0 Posted December 21, 2009 Report Share Posted December 21, 2009 I have bought some frozen minced chicken from a guy that delivers food to greyhound track near me. It is minced meat and bone. The question i have is do i just defrost and feed or cook it. When defrosted it is like meat paste. I have been feeding raw mince beef which i have been buying from asda so i asume that this chicken should be ok raw. many thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites

sandymere 8,263 Posted December 21, 2009 Report Share Posted December 21, 2009 If it's paste then there shouldn't be any whole bits of bone so you could cook if you wanted but for a healthy dog it isn't needed. It's likely ground stripped carcass and skin etc rather than whole chicken so high in calcium and fat. Bear in mind it may well carry high levels of bacteria so may not be good for the dog to be around young children if fed raw. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
peefa 0 Posted December 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2009 Bacteria was what i was concerned about not for the humans in the house but for the dog. Cooking it is not a real problem but would be easier to feed raw. Also i wondered if i do cook it will the dog still digest the bone content as i do know that they cant digest whole cooked bones. Yes it is the paste type no lumps of bone. And may i just add many thanks for these educated replys. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
