[wantsapuppy]

Pre minced or minced at home .

I know proberly six of one half a doZen of the other.

If you had the time would you mince your own meat for your fur beasts

I wouldn't mince ;) Unless you have a 3 week old puppy, or a dog who is old/ill .. they don't need mince , IMO.

depends ... how much do you need? I'm not mincing over 10kg of meat a week my arm would drop off I do agree with Persephone if you dont have to buy it minced you can just dice it up. Minced meat though will always have a short shelf life compared to whole cuts.

Agreed. Dogs digest meat much better if it is in large pieces they have to chew and it keeps better not minced. I only use mince if they are ill or I need to get medications into a meal.

depends if your dogs chew or not ... I have a dog here who tries to swallow whole chicken maryland/lamb flaps .... a coarse mince means at least he wont choke to death on his meals because he's a pig. Or I have to deal with him vomiting the whole thing up and rechewing it so it has a chance of digestion.
