you also need to give them fish oil but just a little bit if they are going to be on raw only. also dont forget to give them organ meat. a little bit of heart liver and other organ meat and tripe is good for them as well. but in limited quanities. and only once a week maybe. I like raw. I still feed kibble but i do raw as well works great for dogs that have skin issues check out canine preformance fuels they do alot of raw stuff and are pretty reasonable and their raw food is already ground with bone in little cubes. Good luck with finding a grinder. I dont use one they get chicken leg quarters bone and everything and do fine never had a problem. they dont get steak bones but chicken bones are fine.

: Anyone know of a meat and bone grinder? I need one that grinds chicken and small steak
: bones along with meat. Where can I get it and how much is it? Also can you share any
: personal experience with the best way of doing this. I have switched to pretty much
: a meat diet including steak, chicken, turkey , and porkchop. I would like to insure
: they are getting enough calcium by adding bone to this too. I still however give
: them about 1/2-1 cup of dog food along with the meal to have a litter dry food as
: filler. What if any supplements should I add to this diet? Currently I give them a
: kelp 150mg , calcuim 500mg, and a glucosimine 500mg w/condrotin 650mg. Are these
: sufficient or should I add something or take something away? I have two growing
: pups, an adult male, and a pregnant female. Thanks in advance.
