Thank you for the responses. I was planning on using my raw diet as well since I find NV to be expensive. I just wondered if it was any better than what we would be supplying through our premium raw diet (on a fair budget). I guess it just means I have to spend more time fine chopping. How small/fine are you guys breaking the meat and bones down for this age? I don't have a meat grinder.
You have to cut it pretty small at that age, which is why I don't bother and use NV for a few weeks, until they're old enough to take bigger chunks.Originally Posted by act284
I can't tell you an exact size, I just eyeball it. I look at their little heads, little teeth, and little throats and do the best I can.
If you're using a meat cleaver, and if you have a lot of pups, I can tell you that you will get blisters trying to cut through that much bone every day.
At least a peddler like me does

A good thing is to have contact with supermarkets in your area. Have them call you when they have meat past last date. They can't sell it, so they'll probably just throw it away. I've come over lots and lots of ground beef like this, witch are perfect for pups.
