Raw Puppy Mince


 Share

Recommended Posts

I am in melbourne and am wanting to know if anyone knows where to get good quality raw puppy mince that doesnt have any preservatives in it. I get it from 4 paws and more at the moment however their meat lasts 1 month so am assuming they have quite a few preservatives.

Thanks!

Not sure which suburb you are in, but I go to Barking Mad Pet Supplies in Thornbury.

Not sure about preservatives but a cooked 2kg batch in my fridge lasts approx 2 weeks before starting to smell, by then

it's almost all eaten any way.

You can get mince with some bones or very fine minced.

They are reasonably priced tooo.

I always feed my puppies raw human grade mince, you can be sure it is fresher than pet mince with no rubbish in it. After they are a bit older I gradually put them on raw pet mince. It is a bit more expensive, but worth it with young puppies. Mine all did well on the human grade mince and I had with no tummy upsets etc and when I switched over to pet mince gradually, they didn't have any problems.

I am in Narre Warren, so not exactly round the corner from you, but I get minced Lamb flaps, ox cheek and Chicken frames for the pups from Berwick. They mince it as it is ordered -usually 1 day notice and no nasties are in it. I get it in 10 or 20 kg lots and freeze them in 1 kg tubs.

I too feed my Collie Human Grade premium mince that has no perservative in it.

My butcher makes it up fresh for me before anything else goes in the mincer and I get enought to freeze for 2 weeks.He does a special price for me too, most butchers will.

Previously I have fed pet quality mince but years ago we had one dog get food poisoning so IMHO I would rather pay a few extra $$ and feed human grade that has No preservatives
