Has anybody fed tripe as a supliment? From what Ive read (when I tried raw with robin) it's good for themIt smells awful,but both dogs ate it.i ask robins vet and his comment was "if you can stand the smell,it wont hurt her" !

John,

Never tried it, although many UK raw feeders give it. The last I saw it at my local store it was a crazy price and decided to stick with liver, etc. I do understand that it is very healthy to give in green form raw. The stuff at the store is white, and something like $20 a pound, I took a pass. The benefits of green raw tripe is wonderful for a dog. I think especially for Robin.

I feed both the canned processed green tripe and the regular tripe chunks (big white unprocessed pieces). I've found that the canned tripe is what usually smells terrible, but I am willing to suffer for the benefit of my dogs. The white chunks don't really smell at all unless you allow them to start spoiling. My dogs LOVE both forms of tripe. It's like a special snack that makes them go bonkers at feeding time, as I'm sure they can smell it in advance and they get super excited to eat.

I have this dream where the husky's take over and force the humans to eat tripe, wakes me up in a cold sweat.

Thee and me brother!! In our neck of the woods they have something they call menudo. Supposed to be a great soup and fantastic for a hangover - the primary ingredient is tripe and I can't force myself to eat this "delicacy"!!!

Ive got one can left,I'll try giveing them about 1/4 can ea tonight.

I just ordered some recently as well but haven't given any to Aurora yet. How often are you guys giving it to your dogs, couple times a week?

I give it daily when I have it, as it seems to be the dogs favorite treat, and I know it's good for them too.
