walshie 2,804 Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 If you give a dog raw mackerel to eat, do you gut then first, fillet them, or just give it the whole thing as is? Ta. Quote Link to post

Slippery_Weasel 460 Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 mine like them! Not sure if its coincidence or not but whenever I have fed them straight out of the sea (within a couple of hours) they have always been sick. If they have been frozen and defrosted... never an issue... Dont understand why Ive fed them both with guts in and out, never noticed any real difference to whether they like them more/less 2 Quote Link to post

white van man 3,192 Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 I gut them walshie but that's because I will do it whilst fishing and then freeze so I have a stock for winter. My dog has at least 2-3 a week. 1 Quote Link to post

A frozen mackerel on a hot summers day goes down a treat with the dog. Quote Link to post
