Dogs have been getting trotted about 25 mile a week for the last month or so getting them tightened up ready for the season, just waiting for the ground to get softened up a bit now and its full steam

We are ready. 

Yes I have to admit it gives me ‘an enormous sense of well being” driving up to Dartmoor at first light walking round watching rabbits disappear time and time again  ,driving back and feeding the dog

Those grizzly's seem to do ok on it ?

Saw a documentary on youtube about wolves in British Columbia. The grizzlies get tapeworms from the salmon, they're bloody massive! but the worms die when they hibernate, apparently these worms would kill the wolves, so they only eat the salmon heads.

Its the same as the veggies saying humans don't need to eat meat but they have to supplement their diet because they don't.

There would be no need for supplements in a barf diet if it was the one answer.

 

AniForte BARF Complete Supplement is a 100% natural supplement specifically developed for dogs on raw feed diets. It is a natural source of minerals and essential nutrients and it ensures that your pet is on a sustainable and balanced BARF diet.

Joe there his no need fa supplements in a good varied raw diet that what's left in the green tripes his enough plenty green in there already processed the indiuo  people source there fibre and greens from the elk tripe a jukel don't need a lot of green matter veg etc. Ya see it evolving domesticated dogs on kibble only seem ta do well on kibble a few generations of this and they need the carbs ta look good and feel fuller. The kibble if used should act has the topper the main diet raw trouble his expence these nice packet Ed raw are rediciously overpriced feed trip from the slaughter house with a chhep low protein. Kibble winter up the protein and fats with a higher protein kibble tripe and plenty fatty lamb bones and what Eva else ya come a Ross keep it cheep and healthy they'll go well on it.

Bill its PART (mixer) of the good varied diet you are going on about, yes they will SURVIVE on it but its far far away from a complete diet.

In this day and age who the hell would want to limit their dogs to a tripe only diet? the answer is no one with an ounce of common sense.

Even back in the day a mainly tripe diet was supplemented with other foods such as table scraps, sheep heads etc.

Is pike any good

I used to eat pike now and again me Sen boney as f**k mate the bones are like needles and like hardened needles one cooked but bet there’s other types of river fish that would go down well with dogs. Crayfish I’ve fed to dogs as a treat dogs loved them catch them boil them smash them an shell them good bit of free supper for the mutts

Same as in our family growing up bill not from a rich family my self no such thing as table scraps if me or other siblings wasn’t eating it it could be guaranteed me old chap or older brother or any relative that popped in would make short work of any leftovers ??Not like in more modern times I think we waist more food these days (not me personally as it’s all ear marked for the dogs) but my kids are terrible for saying I don’t like that then the younger ones copy
