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.

Where are you able to find the trachea and the gullet? I'm just wondering and hoping that might help my older collie. Her back hips bother her but I'm hopeful as this a.m. was the first time she's been able to come down the stairs on her own in a month. I'm hoping it wasn't just a good day but that her new diet is the reason.
