Yes, my dogs do eat a diet similar to what a bodybuilder would eat...minus whatever carbs you take in during the day. Lots of protein though. Like Azooom said, you crack the egg and put it in the bowl. I just put it in their bowl with a half a chicken. The egg is good for them and adds sheen to their coat.

Moira, it makes me very happy to hear about your success with the raw diet, I'm extremely proud for Sadie! The unfortunate truth is that there are very few kibble diets that are not harmful to dogs. They can't tell us when their stomach hurts and so on so we assume they are fine. The higher end kibbles like Blue Buffalo or Canidae are pretty good...but you just can't beat raw meat for a carnivore.

Ahhh...didn't think the dogs would like plain raw eggs.

My boxer / staffie mix doesn't like the raw liver. The pit bull loves it though. Matter of fact, there isn't anything yet that he hasn't liked.

:lol: I fed beef heart and liver the other day, first time I've ever actually bought a cow's heart. I cut 'em up in thirds and gave them to the dogs.

Organ meat is a much richer than muscle and I guess their stomachs weren't ready for that. Nothing will clear a room faster than raw organ farts. Good sweet Jesus.

I tried to start my cats on raw.....that was the longest kitty dinner time ever. One cat produced exorcist vomit and the other looked at us like we were crazy. :lol:

My husband decided that the reason we have cats and not dogs is that cats are far less maintenance. Raw diet is definitely not low maintenance with the cats.

It was not going to be an easy transition especially since the two cats were going to have completely different difficult transitions. :rolleyes:

We got some beef livers because they are soft and juicy. Cats have never had to chew before and that is the problem with Triumph(the 'what the fuck is this shit?' cat). I cut tiny little pieces up for him and mixed it with wet cat food. He would pick up the liver pieces, realize he had to work to get it down and spit it back out. :rolleyes:

Eva(the 'I love it, give me more!' cat) devoured all that we gave her then 20 minutes later we had bloody vomit to clean up on the carpet. :lol: It was disgusting.

Main point is, we have cats because they are low maintenance. We can put out a bowl of kibble and be gone for a couple of days and they'd be fine. We don't have the type of life that we can be home twice a day everyday, ya know?

This might be already covered but I don't feel like reading 10 pages...

is there a risk for salmonella in raw eggs and meat?

No.

Cool I am going to give Puggy a raw egg now. Can you give them one a day?

Sure, but if he's not used to it its likely to agitate his stomach the first couple of times. Raw white chicken meat might be a safer bet at first.
