Gettin the hang of it

Mom says if you're squeamish you may want to skip this post. Lots of raw meat pictures...some kinda bloody (just the way I like em!)

Its been 9 days since Mom started me on the raw diet and both of us are really startin to get the hang of it. Mom found a great price for whole chickens, so she has been buying a bunch and stockin up.

Here's what about a weeks worth of food looks like...pre-processing.

yummy chicken.

At first, Mom was removing the skin so my tummy couldnt get too freaked out by the new food I was eating. The skin is pretty fatty you see, and can sometimes cause digestive issues (aka, runny poops!) in doggies with sensitive tummies.

Once I was eating the skinless chickens for a few days, Mom decided to just leave the skins on and see how I did. I am happy to report I have had no problems!! Other than losing a couple pounds from not eating enough in the first few days, I have made a smooth transition over to a completely raw diet.

Now, lucky me....here's what I get to eat in a day. Half a chicken!! Mom gives me one half in the morning and one half for dinner. It sure is yummy! As soon as she opens the fridge now, I am headed for my pen, ready to eat.

Mom's gettin the hang of things too. Cuttin up and freezing the chicken has gotten to be a much more efficient job. Takes hardly any time and right now there's about 2 more weeks worth of food stored in the freezer. She's even freezin me the yummy innerds from the birds! She says those are special treats that I'll get in a few more days. Guess I'll have to wait to see how I like em!
