This evening after work, I processed some pork that had been letting in a cooler since last weekend. Since I wasn't making sausage or anything, I took all the trimmings and fried em up. I saved all the drippings for pouring over their food later and split up all the fat and meat trimmings for a hot greasy treat for the working dogs. Do any of y'all go out of your way to try and pamper your dogs? Also, any other ideas on uses for trimmings besides sausage or giving them away?

Marines I see as two breeds, Rottweilers or Dobermans, because Marines come in two varieties, big and mean, or skinny and mean. They're aggressive on the attack and tenacious on defense. They've got really short hair and they always go for the throat. RAdm. "Jay" R. Stark, USN; 10 November 1995

Ive learned the hard way about spoiling dogs that way, ended up killing one of my own dogs. When they are use to just kibble and they get scraps especially oil and grease from scap meats its not good for them at all. Be careful

I have always fed dogs scraps, from working dogs to fuzzy indoor yappy dogs, never noticed it to hurt anything. But, Im not an expert on anything either, there may very well be a valid reason not to. Just don't see any reason to waste something that could be put to good use elsewhere. And, they absolutely love the greasy fatty scraps, and will get the calories burnt in the woods.

I don't fry the trimmings or even cook them, I just feed them to the dogs raw. They do very well on the scraps. If you have a dog that needs to put on some weight just add some of the fat to the dog's food when you feed them. I also use the old cooking oil and pour it over the dog's food for added calories, especially when it is cold outside.
