Gizzards and hearts can be found at most anytime. Where are you located? There are often groups of people who go in on orders of meat from distributors. Thats were I get my turkey necks... the only drawback is that I have to order 400 lbs of meat at a time.

Ken Friend Webboard User Reg: 11-08-2004 Posts: 97 Loc: Offline	whoa...that's alot of meat! I'm in Taxachussetts, I mean Mass. Anyways, I spoke with a woman here at my work who runs the restaurant and she said the distributors around here do not have the gibblets, all the have is livers and turkey burger...so maybe I'll try the supermarket. ...learn something new every day.

Ken Friend Webboard User Reg: 11-08-2004 Posts: 97 Loc: Offline	They are about 2 hours from me. I'm out on the cape <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> I hate the cape. Anyhow, thanks for the insight I'm going to keep researching this and check into sources a little more. It sounds like the best choice for the dog, but I want to see how much effort it's going to require and how much money it's going to cost. Thanks everyone. ...learn something new every day.

Anne Jones Webboard User Reg: 04-29-2004 Posts: 3825 Loc: Northeast Offline	Hi Ken, I live in CT. & use Grade A Shop Rite for alot of my raw items. Try one of their stores if they have one at the Cape. I used to get trukey necks at Stop & Shop ( I know that they are up there) but they no longer carry them here, but may up there. They did not ALWAYS have them though. Shop Rite gets their delivery (at my store) on Fri eve late EVERY WEEK & I call & order what I want on Thurs & pick up Sat am. I have found that a store with a strong ethnic following is the store that is most likely to carry them on a regular basis. Most stores have chicken hearts, gizzards & liver & backs in the regular meat cases on a pretty regular basis. Hope this helps. MY DOGS...MY RULES

Ken Friend Webboard User Reg: 11-08-2004 Posts: 97 Loc: Offline	cool. Thank Deanna, I submitted a request to join that forum. I asked around work today...I'm kind of a hermit and I don't get out much so I don't even know much of what is available locally...I thought maybe a butcher shop may have these items. I think I still have alot of reading to do...and I'm also wondering if most of you end up purchasing a seperate freezer for this stuff. ...learn something new every day.

Deanna Thompson Moderator Reg: 10-27-2001 Posts: 2261 Loc: Eastern Maine Offline	Yep. I have an 18 cubic footer- it is big enough to deal with the dog meat and any pesky people I need to give a cooling off period. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> You can buy smaller amounts of stuff from people who cater to raw diet feeders, but for that you will pay extra. I just buy the 40lb cases, and I have three other people who order from me as well. 400 lbs for 8 large dogs isn't as much as it sounds like. :-) I think you will find that it is not as hard to find a variety of meats as you might think.
