Jody has been on raw food for almost 2 months. I am following rawfeddogs schedule but I am going a little slower because Jody, GSD, is sensitive to new protein and fat. She handles poultry fine but can't tolerate more than about 5ounces of pork a day (gas and loose stool). I would like to introduce beef and just found ground beef for .99 a lb. at our local grocery store. I know ground beef has a higher bacteria load but the price was right and it will be easier for me to portion out in small batches. Will ground beef be ok to feed?
Is it any richer to digest than pork? I am ready to bag/freeze it and I have about 10 lbs. of it. Any advice as to what portion sizes I should freeze it in?
As a side note..I kind of went out of order and have been giving her about 3 ounces of beef liver each day with no problem. I just found beef kidney so I will add that as soon as she is on beef.
