I cut and served outside so it probably didn’t hit me as much as it would have in the kitchen. Although my kitchen opens up to both dining rooms and the living room and hallway to upstairs so if I did do it inside, boy would everything stink!

Sandy-

The canned does not bother me at all, but the fresh made me want to hurl : ) Of course, I prepared and fed it in the warm kitchen, so that may have played a huge role in it..

Hubby said he kissed Missy and she smelled like crappie and minnows! They just ate their tripe and sardine dinner 30 minutes or so ago. Tripe does smell like a “fishing” smell.

Okay, that’s one that practically loses her cookies and one that isn’t particularly affected by the smell …

I wonder if others would find even a mild ”sewer water smell” in an enclosed room somewhat obnoxious … hee hee hee For me, sewer smell is a good description Oddly, sardines don’t bother me so much. Fishy yes but they don’t evoke my gag reflex — hee hee hee…

Next person to give raw tripe a try let us know what you think (or canned but canned is not as bad).

I forgot where the tripe discussion was…

I gave it to them today. I made sure to cut and serve outside since it’s supposedly real stinky. It actually wasn’t a strong stinky smell or pungent, just reminded me of wet sneakers/fresh cut grass with a hint of mild sewer water smell (mildly on this last part). Very earthy indeed. I think sardines have a stronger smell actually.

Anyhow, the dogs dug right in and they’ve never had raw tripe before. Yesterday I gave them a topper of Tripett canned tripe which didn’t particularly smell either.

And everyone still has BMs 24-26 hours after meals. I’m still feeding once a day.
