    Believe it or not this was my first post in any type of forum. Or online aside from Facebook for that matter. I will not be partaking again. Besides the one helpful comment that actually pertained to what I was asking about everything else has been negative comments that don’t address my question. Posting negative self absorbed comments that don’t help anyone out and don’t answer their questions is time that you could be devoting to more important things. Thanks. Peace out

    Thank you so much Acroyali! that is very helpful. I did see something about tripe, and now that i know that I definitely will try that. Could you or anyone else give me an example of what a meal plan for a week could look like if im mainly using leg quarters or whole chicken even? Just so I can get an idea. The ingredients I know I will look into buying for sure is leg quarters, tripe, some type of organ and maybe some chicken feet for them to snack on since bernese mountain dogs are known to have hip problems. But Im open to a meal plan with something added in also, whether it’s rice or vegetables. Just so I have something to look at and get a better picture of what each of their meals will look like. If i have something to work off of it’ll help me start to alternate the plan on my own. Thanks so much!

    First I would like to try raw. I’ve read and been told cooking takes away from nutritional value of raw meat. I’m not concerned about it being raw. Animals can eat raw food. Cats eat mice. Dogs eat rabbits and squirrels. I’m set on going raw if I do this at all. Just having trouble figuring out making each meal balanced every time. Anyone have tips or struggle with this as well.

    Yes I have actually. He has had many expensive tests and blood work done. Nothing was abnormal or a concern. He has trouble processing his kibble. I know switching to raw shouldn’t be to save money. I care about my animals and would feed them better than myself if I could afford it. However that being said I know there can be cheaper ways to feed raw. Keeping it simple and buying meat on sale. For instance, our local store has leg quarters on sale 48 cents a pound. This is affordable for us. Just need to know if there are other things along with it I should be feeding and how often. As far as raw feeding being bad for dogs that is your own opinion. I had my opinion before doing weeks of research and now my opinion has changed. From now on please only positive advice towards the main question I asked. Thank you
