Does anyone feed some lamb? Aussies? I know most feed chicken or turkey, but has anyone given their dog a lamb leg bone or rack of ribs?
I recently deboned a leg of lamb and gave my dog the leg bone with some meat on it. He devoured the whole thing.
Spring lamb season is coming up (what with Easter and all) and I was thinking of buying a whole lamb.
But the dog would have to share with me!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />
I raise my own lamb and my dogs do eat it. I get most of it ground. As long as it is lamb, I think that they ribs and bones are fine. You should be careful though. Some dogs have a harder time digesting lamb in larger portions and it can bring on a pancreatic attack.
Shelley,
He did digest the bone very well with no probs. It just happened that I had planned a menu with leg of lamb and gave him the bone for a treat and chew toy. Chicken would still be his main diet, but it would be nice to throw him some of the odd parts I don't feel like cooking with, especially if I order a whole lamb.
Thanks for the tip! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />
I would not give the liver raw. There is a disease in sheep that can be carried in the liver (forget the name). Now, I would assume that the meat would go through an inspection prior to you getting it but still...I cook the liver.
As dogs age, thier pancreas does not seem to be albe to take as much stress or higher fat contents either. My 12 yr. old does not do as well on the lamb (dirreaha). But thus far all the others are fine.
