My meal plan. Dillon is on 4 meals a day till the beginning of next month then onto 3.

1st meal. Mince and 1oz mixer.
2nd meal. Bone. Chicken wing, carcass, necks, lamb or pork rib and remainder to make up quantity mince.
3rd meal mince with his veggies offal twice weekly and all his other bits and bobs, garlic, honey, natural yoghurt, apple cider vinegar, fish oil.
4th meal. Mince and 1oz mixer.

A couple of times a week I will for his 3rd meal or last meal do some tinned sardines or mackerel with cottage cheese and top up with mince separately to give him his right quantity for that feed.

My weekly menu is (I don't feed blended veggies)

Monday
am chunks of heart 250g
pm beef mince 1lb (454g)

Tuesday
am liver 200g and 1 chicken wing
pm turkey mince 1lb

Wednesday
am pig offal (lung, kidney etc) 250g
pm lamb mince 1lb

Thursday
am raw meaty bone 300g (chicken quarter/lamb ribs/chicken carcass/pork ribs/turkey necks etc)
pm chicken and tripe mince 1lb

Friday
am oily fish 250g and a raw egg
pm beef chunks 250g and white fish chunks 150g

Saturday
am raw meaty bone 300g (chicken quarter/lamb ribs/chicken carcass/pork ribs/turkey necks etc)
pm chunky green tripe 1lb

Sunday
am eco mince 250g
pm half a whole furred rabbit

I tend to included a whole raw carrot with breakfast and a bit of fruit/veg with dinner (banana, apple, tomatoes, cucumber, courgette, celery etc), but I don't feed it blended, I feed it whole just to fill him up a bit.

Mine is not a beginner menu as it has too many protein sources. You should start with just one or two meat types until the dog is used to it. I feed a lot of variety as Cain has guts of steel! But its ok to feed chicken for a few weeks then switch to turkey etc. Some people do this as they bulk buy one kind of meat. You are trying to achieve balance over time.

I don't feed veg and don't have a plan as such, I feed them whatever I have defrosting but they do always get a mix of bone such as wings, carcasses or lamb ribs mixed with chunks of heart, beef, rabbit, venison or tripe and the balance made up with mince of some description, either chicken, lamb and tripe or economy mince. I add liver once a week and pilchards once a week and yoghurt when I have it available.
I feed once a day.

my weekly meal plan consists mainly of mince meals.

every week they have 14 meals.

3 of those meals are bone meals so chicken wings, chicken necks, beef ribs...

2 meals are fish, so either sardines, pilchards, mackerel or oily fish mince which is salmon..

1 meal of egg, yoghurt and cheese..

2 meals of offal, so either liver or kidney.

the other meals consist of minces of either, tripe, lamb, beef, turkey, venison, rabbit.

on days where they have two mince meals i tend to add veg to bulk it out a bit.

I don't have a strict plan, but I do have a rough one... I used to stick rigidly to a plan because I like plans, and order I don't feed any fruit and veg. This is the plan I used to stick to rigidly... He gets two meals a day.

Monday - Chicken carcass and Liver
Tuesday - Beef/Ox cheek and Wings (chicken or duck)
Wednesday - Heart (ox or lamb) and Fish
Thursday - Tripe and Ribs
Friday - Chicken carcass and Kidney
Saturday - Beef/Ox cheek and Wings (chicken or duck)
Sunday - Turkey neck and Fish

He sometimes gets other things when I can get them at a reasonable price, like rabbit.

Every so often, I make a new plan and then stick rigidly to that for a while... I am OCD about certain things, and this is one of them

I don't have a plan anymore, but try to give something different everyday.

Today she had lamb meat (its "handplucked, not minced) and a bit of minced pork (leftover from my dinner) and a horse bone.

Tomorrow she'll have handplucked chicken.

I won't put the weights as I really don't know each weight because it's shared between 3dogs and I do it by eye more than anything.

Monday am- liver + tripe chunks
Monday pm- chicken carcasses

Tuesday am- minced lamb + egg
Tuesday pm- duck wings

Wednesday am- minced chicken
Wednesday pm- chicken wings

Thursday am- tripe chunk + kidney
Thursday pm- chicken carcass

Friday am- minced oily fish
Friday pm- duck wings

Saturday- minced turkey + yoghurt
Saturday pm- whole fish

Sunday am- beef chunks
Sunday pm- carcasses


My menu isn't very interesting yet as iv not long started really, about 4 months I think so still consider myself a novice. When I return home I'm planning on adding new things to their monthly order & making it a bit more interesting
