Hey, Just thought I'd write a quick message here and tell y'all that I'm going to be starting work at the Tailblazers store on 9th Ave in Inglewood next week....
Hello there, My name is Rena, and I share my home with two Great Danes (Karma almost 5 & Zen 3) and a three legged feral cat(Klubby, about 18 years old). I...
Welcome Rena... I'm Terry, I started this group so I could meet other RAW feeders in Calgary and learn from them. I have one black lab that I've been feeding...

I would imagine it's cow, just checking with the breeder who suggested it, thanks for the suggestion! She had mentioned Mountain Dog food dealer, but I'm...
Thanks Terry! Well, good breeding, the right lines, no vaccines & raw feeding can double it. The breeder who introduced me to raw (20+ yrs experience, won't...
Rena, That is awesome that your breeder insists on raw feeding with her dogs! I hope I find a breeder like that for whatever my next pup is (haven't decided...
Hi Rena, Great to have you in the group! Seems like there are quite a few folks who feed their Danes raw. The main Yahoo rawfeeding group seems to be full of...
Thanks for the website, interesting reading:) Yes, I'm pretty sure UFA will have it. I didn't actually know it was used on pets, just thought it was for...
Welcome, I think most of the raw food stores (Healthy Hounds, Tailblazers etc.) carry the Peturna Colostrum. I think it's pretty expensive though. Lori...
Hi all, especially Rena, I'm on my second week working at Tailblazers and it's been going well. I've been so down on the pre-made mixes and ground stuff in the...
Hey Anika, Glad to hear your new job is going well:) About the premixes, although I wouldn't personally feed them (am a chef, so doing it myself was an easy...
Sure, I'll give it a try:) Maybe 6 to try out and see how they like it. thanks! Rena ... From: Lori Vickerman To: CalgaryRawFeeders@yahoogroups.com Sent:...
I've been thinking about calling for more myself. We're going out of town for the week, but if you haven't made arrangements by then I might get in on your...
Hmph, go figure. How strange that UFA is the most expensive! You're definitely right about it being an expensive thing to experiment with. So glad to hear...
I don't know about everyone else but I've been having a heck of a time getting tripe lately. I found a company that will sell me tripe "whole, uncut, in...
Hey Lori, How squeemish are you?:) I've worked with a lot of meat, and besides the first time I saw a boiled tongue peeled it's one of the few things that...
Where does everyone get their offal? I sorta just pick it up where I can (often from Lori's butcher), but lately I've been forced to go pay the ridiculous...
Hey Terry, I get my offal from various places, including some Asian markets in Forest Lawn who sell pig innards for ridiculously cheap prices. Forest Lawn...
Lori, I'm not squeamish AT ALL, but I don't know that I could repackage that much tripe. It's really smelly, and a wierd sort of smelly that I definitley...
Yeah I've been thinking that'd be pretty gross. If it's already cut up they charge 1.75$/lb if I buy 400 lbs. But still, I'm used to buying breeders blocks...
Lori, If your not in a hurry I could find out when my neighbors are butchering a steer again. I am sure you could get all the tripe for free. Ron Lori...
I'd definately pay 50 cents/lb to not have to cut it up. I'd be in for 100lb's if you go for it. Terry ... From: Lori Vickerman <vickermanlori@...> ...
Thanks Anika, so do you feed whole meals of Offal, or package it up? I tried to move Guinness to whole meals, but he had the WORST ever gas when I did that, so...
Hey Terry, Sounds like an icky situation!!! My girls can all handle whole offal meals, so that's the way we do it. A pig liver here, a beef kidney there....
... this week & found the $28.99/150gm & $153.99/kg at Trailblazers, $29.99/150gm at Pet Planet & $17.95/50gm at UFA. That kind of suprised me, as it makes...
Hey guys, In case you haven't had a chance to go through your flyers....Soby's is having dollar days. Just picked up some beautiful bone in skin on pork...
