I was the same when I discovered them at the fish markets.I did buy them but my dogs wern't terribly impressed with them.2 dogs ended up eating them but the other one just layed beside it and wouldn't eat it I'm sure you'll be able to get them easily around Sydney at the fish markets.There's also www.justfood4dogs.com.au that delivers around Sydney that you'd be able to get fresh bones/mince delivered Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can get whole mullet for $2.99/kg so they get whole fish about once a week. They were not too thrilled at the beginning but now they love it so I hope they will eat the salmon heads as well :p Thanks heaps for the tip about www.justfood4dogs.com.au Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeltaCharlie Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 Charlie loves Salmon heads, Delta just stares back at them :rolleyes: I'm in Sydney and get them from the local coles for $2.49/kg. No idea where else you could get them from though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

huga Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 My guys love them too, but they are a bit big for Lola. I tried to chop them in half, but it was very unsuccessful... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hopenfox Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 I heard raw salmon was dangerous for dogs???Something about a bacteria in it or something along those lines???? Anyone know for sure?? Only fresh salmon from the Pacific North West can carry a parasite that can be dangerous to dogs, but freezing kills it, and I doubt very much that such salmon will be found here in Australia anyway (and if it is, it will have been frozen for the trip over). ~ ~ ~ I too love hunting for meaty bargains and get so excited when I find something new! I once nearly bought out a supermarket when they had a sale on meaty (human grade) lamb necks for $1.49 pkg! And I was recently given 4 whole (fur on) wild rabbits...yay - free meat! I get salmon heads for 50 cents each and Fox loves them as fishcycles! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cassie Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 50c each gee whiz I wish I could get them for that! The couple times I've found them have been at Coles and they were $3.99 each! I realise this is very dear but I like to spoil the kids with them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akitaowner Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 i get my raw from food4dogs and find his roo tails MASSIVE Rogue struggles to get thru one in one sitting - Mav never has any troubles! I get 10kg for 18.00 which is usually about 8 pieces and they get carcasses and wings for the rest... never ceases to amaze me that people will pay $3.50kg for chicken necks at woolies :rolleyes: !!

Tiggy Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 I saw whole kangaroo tails into meal size pieces while still frozen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
