Ox heart

Am thinking about getting a ox heart for Jin. Anyone fed this to their dogs? What did you/they think?

They are HUGE!!!!! My two love them, we cut them unto
portions and freeze them

yep they are just the same as other heart just hug. I cook mine though.

You cannot always get it, in the supermarket it is usually cut up for you unlike lamb hearts.

I feed it.

mine have 1 each week between them, they love it, getting a little expensive of late though.

I got a whole one through the butcher and it was about the size of a basketball! I cut it up and it literally last me months! Cain absolutely loves it though, he gets it once a week.

Does anyone know if there is much nutritional difference between different kinds of heart e.g. ox, lamb, pig? I make an effort to feed a variety of liver and kidneys but I only feed ox heart (although he gets a bit of pig heart in the pig pluck). Wondered if it was worth making the effort to get different kinds or not?

Any reason why? I'm new to this
So just interested

I get it already cut up, cheaper than lamb heart and Teg seems to like it just as much.

Ox heart [and all offal] is very expensive here and I have to order one when I want it. For myself! I am still waiting for another one and will try Pereg with some.

I have always trimmed all the large tubing [arteries and veins] and binned them, but now Pereg is part fed on raw, I should imagine that I could mince them and give to her.

One thing about ox heart is the fat. You can trim it off a fresh heart and render it down to make rather nice [but calorific] dripping!

This is what I was going to do. The butcher I get bones off has them, and so cheap (£3). It is right next to an abbortoire so they get all sorts. I might ask if he can chop it for me. I wonder what other offal I could get.....
