100% Organic Green Tripe (ground)
When feeding green tripe on a regular basis, the partially digested plant matter in the grazing animals provides what you would need to otherwise prepare in a “veggie glop” for the dog. Also, the digestive enzymes, probiotics and prebiotics in the tripe eliminate the need to add supplements. Most healthy dogs will need some additional muscle meat, heart, cartilage and chews (raw meaty bones, etc.) to complete their needs.
It is a perfect food for dogs with compromised kidney function (renal failure). In addition to having easily digested nutrients and probiotics, other important factors for these dogs are the phosphorous level is low, the calcium:phosphorus ratio is 1:1 and the high moisture content provides proper hydration of internal organs. Dogs with elevated liver enzymes have also responded well to the 100% Green Tripe.
This basic formula is good for all dogs of all ages. Puppies can be started on this at about 4 weeks of age when their puppy teeth emerge.
