Thread: Doggo's Rations on a Long Hunt

As said though you will pretty much guarantee you can knock something over for camp meat. I would take her normal rations for four days and go from there, if she's not used to fresh meat you be better feeding her half and half biscuits and a bit of meat to keep her stomach settled.

Fresh Veni is a shocker for dogs
Like I was 2 days ago - like Hamilton Jet unit

My last two dogs pretty much lived on venison/bones both raw and frozen for the best part of their lives with only the odd feed of biscuits (that they usually wouldnt eat til starving) They did great on it the trick was getting them to eat anything else......they wouldn't eat any pork unless cooked.
New dog wants its venison cooked ffs....wifes ruined it already.

Oh - yes Wifi's have a habit of doing this - tell me about it
Strange what you state Cam - as any "working" dog feed on Veni or Goat for that matter will go down hill and loose weight
Maybe your dried addition is countering this ??

My dogs didnt work or hunt....just pets/guards on a large section.....plenty of exercise but nothing compared to a hill country sheep dog.
Point is if fed raw veni regularly they wont get the shits......if you give any dog 10 kilos of shot meat out of ya trimming bucket when it normally lives on dry biscuits your asking for trouble.
