Why on earth wouldn't you feed tripe Claire ?  its fabulous for dogs.
Sorry was tired yesterday and failed to explain myself properly! ::)  I was referring to earlier post I'd made:
I wouldn't feed cooked pasta or potatoes - dogs don't need carbs in the same way humans do.  Also I wouldn't feed just tripe - I'd go for a variety of raw meats
It's pasta and pots I wouldn't feed after the dog had been fattened up.  Tripe I would feed.

Hi everyone,

Helen, thanks for posting the pics.  Just got back from long weekend away. 

Yes, the tripe and Nature's Menu and raw lamb have worked wonders with our Ted, he looks great and enjoys his new food enormously!  Will now start to cut back the tripe, think I'll use up this bag and then get something different from Prizechoice and see what he thinks.

Thank you everyone for your advice.
