    fatty old ram is my pick, also possum, skinned with head and hocks cut off, (you don't want them swallowing those claws) then frozen whole to kill any parasites. Axe them up into frozen bits, seems to make any dog of mine fat, but beware the possum fart. Good excuse to go shoot some racoons too

    beware though the mighty possum fart, good friends of mine used to feed their pack of 14 huskies possum to keep the condition on and the costs down. 14 possum farting dogs are an experience!!

    jeez it would be an experience to be in a sled behind them when they all let rip............. fair burn off your eye brows

    mutton is fatty and will put it on your dogs almost as well as possum but they fart almost as well too.
    trumps dog roll worked well for us for years till we got a bad batch and went off it.
