How times change regarding feeding I can remember waiting for the sheep heads boiling along with wessels and throttles in the yard old lass wouldn't have it cooked in the house because of the smell then letting it cool down so we got the thick white crust and jelly and being sent down the local fish market as a kid  a few times a week collecting heads to go through the mincer and all the blood from the bottom of the tray then the old girl saving any kitchen scraps plus any thing deemed unsuitable for humans from the slaughter house we had unlimited supply of green tripe and bunnys

Puts weight on my dogs got something  to do with eating it one thinks ? 

I find tripe great for Keeping weight on a dog. Have fed it to all my dogs for years.  

Grown dogs can't handle milk, what animal drinks it within nature, once they are weaned & full size? Over the last couple of years I've cut back my dog numbers, the 2/3s that are left still e

I never boiled the heads just fed raw, there wouldn't be a tooth left, rabbits raw as well sometimes with the fur on sometimes off but always with the guts out.

Rabbits left with the coat on apparently provided more ruffage no shortage of talkers with or without

I can see the sense in that. When wild animals like wolves, big cats etc are at their best they are lean and dry and have usually gone a good while without meat, then after a kill they have a belly full, and it all start again. I know we all tend to look a lot at Greyhound trainers but Lurchers are hunting dogs with different stresses on them and their work is less routine and closer to nature than a greyhound. I cant believe I used to give my dogs breakfast on a morning the day of lamping, especially a wet one. When a dog gets fit it doesnt drink much, but has a good drink now and then. They dont need it, and its all that moisture that overheats them. I think your ideas are good and sound more natural to a hunting dog.

Yeh I just found that they could run sluggish if feed to much meat the day before ?
