I do not mix in veggies. Most PMR feeders don't believe the dog gets any benefit from them as they are not able to digest them properly. I do not grind at all. I just feed the whole piece. In my yorkies case, it might be a chicken leg or just some boneless meat. Sometimes I let her work on pork bones but never beef bones as they tend to be too dense for her. My collie eats a whole leg and thigh. She handles those bones with no problems and also does pretty good with some pork bones. I don't feed her any beef bones either. I try to give them a variety of meat but of course, chicken being so economical, that is a frequent meal. I generally keep 2 days worth of food in a freezer bag and pull them out the day before to thaw. If I were at the market, I would be fine feeding them a piece of say, chicken with out freezing it but if it's wild food (I don't hunt but I get venison donated to me frequently) I make sure to freeze that for a month or so to be on the safe side. Hope that helps! |
