Here's the list of animal organs, also known as offal;
heart, lungs, brain, eye, stomach, spleen, pancreas, kidneys, liver, intestines, skin, urinary bladder, testicles and uterus. Gizzards as well, yes.
You don't have to feed ALL on that list. For example, I don't feed brain, eye (only in fish) and the sex organs. I have never had the bladder available and the stomach only as stomach lining in the form of tripe. I DO feed the trachea and the gullet as those are natural carriers of chondroitin sulfate. I'm currently debating if I should order a half a cow or pig, that way I could get all of those "weird" things to feed my dogs while I get to keep the good cuts to cook for my family.
As far as your hubby goes; you could tell him that only because a dog eats k*bble, does not mean his poop or saliva is sanitary or even sterile, lol.

They are splitting a chicken quarter each evening, alternating who gets the drumstick each time. Maggie weighs about 6 lbs and Coco weighs about 8 lbs. Is this enough food or too much? Thanks for the info on the egg, I will wait on that a bit, cuz hubby is still kinda skeptical about this diet and if they puke he'll freak if he sees it right now. He keeps calling them salmonella breath. Crazy man  He'll get used to it though. |
