Do you Egg for the dog? Salt loves it.

Mickey · August 28

HEB & PUBLEX both sell 10lb bags leg/thigh for app $7.00.
We use a tall pot on the stove 50% of the time with just water (nothing else). Takes about an hour to cook her chicken on the stove to 170/200. This gets the best chicken stock if you want soup or we freeze to include with her dinner. We pull the 10lbs and put it in freezer bags.

Now to the Egg. Half the time we put the 10 lbs on the large go to 170/200 then pull meat and freeze (just don’t have broth).

Because heart’s & gizzards are so good for her this mostly on EGG (or just drop in pan and boil). She really likes the taste off the Egg.

Cross a couple of grids to hold the hearts.

We add rice or frozen green beans to the broth and she eats it well.

She has kibble down but seldom eats it.

We have been doing this for the past year or so. When traveling we have frozen and unfrozen to take.

This works well for us.

Most pups are good with licking the grates clean, and here Salt has her own personal chef ! I bet she appreciates the effort.

Nemo, 3/4 poodle wishes that I would cook for him. He has to settle for kibble, vitamins, breath bones, and whatever he steals. Btw I have since switched groomers to a much better one.

He looks good. We do Salt as she just fights any groomer and we are retired.

Well he had bare spots showing on both hind feet, a bare spot on his chest, a nick on his “special purpose “, and they had cut his tail leaving a poof like a dandelion head. I can tell when my dog isn’t happy. On the other hand he likes the new groomer, she says he even lifts one leg at a time for her. That quarter Old English Shepherd make him 63 pounds but otherwise he’s all poodle.

Mine get a taste of whatever protein I'm cooking. I also love hearts and gizzards!

just bought 40 bucks of meaty beef back rib bones for the weekend for my two britts. i will walk by the egg tonight with them at camp so i guess thats egged

ill toss in extra eggs for breakfast, always get the last bite of a sandwich, and all the leftovers, and they still like their dry dog food. these are highly active dogs and eat alot and dont gain weight, my 14 year old has held steady at 42 pounds for the last 12 years

@Mickey your dog looks amazing! I keep Joleen clipped short like @Gulfcoastguy life’s just too busy to keep up with long hair maintenance. How often are you cutting Salt, we are on an every other week routine.

Are you cutting yourself? Looks great.

Summer Texas & Florida +/- 4 weeks. I wash and do the majority of body cut with 3/8” blade cover. Still short enough to get out sand and enough to keep from sunburn. Winter (both months) 1/2” cut.

Linda cleans up my work and does head/feet.

@fishlessman
Are you giving the beef ribs raw?
We are getting at Costco and thinking $8 lb but S&P then Egging and eating. THEN giving to Salt.

raw beef back ribs, if i cooked them they would crunch them and eat the bones. keeps the britts teeth clean, no tarter build up. dont know how your dogs breeds teeth are, if prone to breaking i would pass on this. i dont give my dogs cooked bones, they get back rib and heavy marrow bones, avoid neck bones as they can easily be swallowed. my lawn is a bone yard, eventually i burn them for the compost pile

my vet doesnt like this, says it will hurt the teeth but ive had dogs chewing these bones from pups til they were 18. i think she just wants to put them under every 18 months and brush their teeth and bill me the 800 bucks each or so. britts are wash and wear, they jump in the lake several times a day, no brushing, no baths unless skunked.

@Mickey I do it at home myself. I purchased a good set of clippers and detachable blades (a must). She’s cut with a 3.5f blade her head is cut with a guard on the blade and blended with scissors… it’s taken lots of practice to get it “clean”.

I give my doodle and boxer some of the trimmings when prepping for the grill, some of the pizza crusts after I remove olives and mushrooms and onions, pieces of carrots. Their favorite is frozen blueberries, 1 each for them and 2 or 3 for me.

I love egged dogs, especially BBQ

Sorry.wrong post

Well played right there.

He liked having longer fur last winter. Taking a nap in snow when the dog door was right at my feet. He had ice cubes in his fur that melted all inside the house. The next hair cut was the 💩Show.

I egg for mine. I use up most of my meat trimmings on them that way they are getting unsalted food. They usually get half of the chicken hearts I cook and other bits of things that usually end up being cooked with rice and frozen into future food hockey pucks. I freeze mine in a silicone muffin tin and move the frozen pucks to a freezer bag so they are easier to warm up for meals.
