... I just look at the supermarket adds that come every Monday. You can also source meets from some of the small sheep and goat farmers in the area as well.
You guys are lucky. I am in Mississippi where feeding your dog raw has not caught on. So i just let people in the stores think i am a chicken and turkey neck freak. I feed kibble but supplement with raw at a different feeding. I'm feeding am olde bulldogge so the RMB helps with the teeth. I feed deer, turkey neck, chicken feet, chicken backs.

I'm still wary on feeding raw meat from the supermarket (that is intended to be cooked I think).
Lol, What???
I would have hoped for a more meaty response (no pun intended)
What I meant is, I thought that some hormones or chemicals that can end up in the meat would be killed by heat. I'm not against raw, I was weary of where the raw meat is from. Steve, do you think otherwise (trying to get more than two words and a comma )
Lol, thats three words and a period!
I know some people have concerns with that, I don't though Mike. You can go the whole organic route but I've just never been that worried or seen enough evidence of it being a problem to keep me from buying at Lucky's or Safeway. Who ever has a sale.
Organic is best for all of the reasons you are talking about, but bottom line is that the meat you but at the grocery store is fine, and five hundred times better than kibble and way better than cooked.
The cooking MAY destroy (I have ZERO knowledge of how cooking affects hormones… Never read a study&hellip but it will also remove much of the nutrients that the dogs get from it as well.
There was a study done on cats ( Pottenger's cat study ), where one colony was fed raw food, and one cooked food. First generation was “less” in many ways for the cooked food colony, and within a few generations (we are talking cats here, that would only be a couple of years) the cooked fed cats had smaller, sicklier litters and shorter life spans among other health issues.
Just go with raw. Throw him a cornish game hen and watch him love all of the crunchy bones and real meat!
It sounds like you are putting a TON of research into this, and kudos to you for that.
