    I have been feeding raw for 2 months now. My dilemma is that I am going to have to cut back a bit financially for awhile due to a family problem. I would like to know the minimal list of PMR I can safely do with my 7 dogs where they still get most of what they need. O also need time to save for a freezer and develop a relationship with 3 sources in my area that may yield free or inexpensive PMR. In 2 months they have eaten chicken, pork and turkey. I never found a fish resource and didn't make it to beef or organs. Thanks for any help!!

    dogs need organs for their vitamins. they only need 10% of their diet to be organ and of that 10%, five per cent needs to be liver and the other five per cent can be kidney, spleen, brain, thymus, pancreas and i forget the others. :)

    beef or pork heart is red meat and you can usually find that cheap enough....chicken, turkey and pork...that's three....add in a red meat protein such as heart and you'd be fine, as long as you find organs to feed, too.
