      The funniest part of me being vego is the amount of time I spend in the meat section of the supermarket and at the butcher next door to it picking the best meats for my dog! Hes on a very strict low fat diet (due to previous pancreatitis, not because hes fat) so I only trust buying him good quality human grade meat.

        The least he can do for you then is to learn how to find truffles.

              Yes, he gets lots of Roomeat...but I avoid the pet packaged ones as they are literally dripping in sulphur dioxide (I think thats the chemical they use?) and it really upsets his tummy.

              Am a huge proponent of Roomeat (and Im vego! Go figure.)

                Thats one reason I started the raw food diet post for my new mate (puppy)

                I now feed him exclusively a Raw Meaty Bones diet

                  Once exams are over (I should stop distracting from study by looking on CS) I will go an check it out.

                  I have read Give Your Dog a Bone which I am imagining is in a similar vain?

                  Our boy has mostly been on this sort of diet (raw meat and bones with some vege scraps added in), though it is topped up with some manufactured dog food in the form of kibble...a prescription one for post pancreatitis. We just have to be more careful now as to what meat and bones he gets...cant have too much marrow and needs to avoid all pig meat and overly fatty cuts of other animals.

                  Good to see more and more dogs getting back onto raw meat and bones, and less cooked and processed stuff.

                    Re: Venting..... Of a much more general nature.

                    I have a funny one when it comes to someone of the very strict vegetarian persuasion.

                    I was in the Army Reserve for about 7 years up until 8 years ago.

                    We had a man join the Reserves and, like me, become a radio operator.

                    He was a strict vegetarian and had to have special meals made for him, despite the fact that we were about 25km from Weipa in the remote North of Queensland on exercise. Spent hours a day swapping rations with people because he was vegetarian and, whenever there were fresh rations, had to have his meal specially made up.

                    Yet...

                    He wore his leather army boots like the rest of us (even though he was a vegetarian because of cruelty to animals) and no qualms about joining a defence force where you were taught to shoot to kill a human.

                    Funny how his values disappeared when it came to earning some tax free dollars from the Government, but found them again when it came to getting nice fresh specialty cooked meals and bludging everyones decent tinned rations in the name of his ethics (and yes, the non-meat tinned rations were the best in the ration packs because they at least werent rubbery!)

                    Let me tell you quietly, that man made my teeth itch and gave me a very strong bias against vegetarians for a very long time. Still raises my hackles when I think of him.

                    Fortunately, the longer Ive been around on this great Earth, Ive realised that not all vegetarians are that hypocritical and self-centred...

                        He does get meat on the bone, including lamb necks. Basically he gets whatever looks the best at the butcher/supermarket (that isnt pig) on each occasion. I am biased toward buyig him roomeat (very low fat, and come on Aussies we should be buying up roomeat in mass quantities - a very healthy meat option with plenty of it all around) and select cuts of lamb (because its my boys favourite).

                        We are left topping it all up with prescription kibble because he really cannot have too much fat...nearly lost him last time, not going through that again! If he didnt have such problems I would be sticking to a 100% fresh raw food diet.

                          Roo meat is good if cooked hot and fast.

                              Im with the good wife, TG - the smell of it cooking (or anything gamey, in fact) makes me dry retch...

                              On the opposite side of the coin, Pete says that the smell of my boiling up a batch of Chai makes him feel ill and says the house smells like a hot cross bun!

                              Ah, bugger, its just started raining again!

                                Dont worry; were in the middle of a drought, it shouldnt last long.
