driller killer 33 Posted October 14, 2010 Report Share Posted October 14, 2010 Hello, my dog gets fed on whole rabbit chicken frames etc i also use raw miced meat blocks for variation and i cant allways get the above, but looking at the typical analysis the moisture content seems very high. going by this link http://www.albionmeatproducts.co.uk/products/standard.html the premium tripe for example has 76g moisture in a 100g block, i understand meat will contain moisture naturally and what is moisture? is it water? 76% of it is water? How much moisture would you expect naturally? It also says "Free From Artificial Colourings, Fillers, Preservatives, Additives or Cereals." would water be a filler or an additive? Do people reckon water has been added to this product to bulk it up? and if so how much? Cheers for any help on this. Neil Quote Link to post Share on other sites
driller killer 33 Posted October 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2010 I have since googled this (which i should have before i asked) and that moisture content is quite normal. Naturally occuring in meat. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest jt750 Posted October 14, 2010 Report Share Posted October 14, 2010 I've been feeding mine raw for around 6 months now ...the meat i get is top quality ..i have nothing bad to say about it..I've had frozen blocks from the local pet shop and a large equine place which does dog products as a sideline ..and the meat i've had from these local places and it has has added water ..you can usually tell this because its often finely chopped and has the consistancy of toothpaste as opposed to what i buy in which is coarsley chopped and you can see the offal and various bits of tissue you need in meat to feed a dog Quote Link to post Share on other sites
