The Dogs Butcher Raw Dog Food - Alpaca Ribs, Neck & Spine 1kg

This single protein bone framework delivers an exceptional nutritional and structural profile that supports long term skeletal integrity and metabolic vitality. Alpaca represents an exceptional novel protein source, serving as an invaluable asset for owners managing dogs with severe food allergies, complex inflammatory conditions, or those undergoing strict elimination diets where standard proteins like chicken or beef trigger adverse reactions. The bones are beautifully surrounded by dense, ultra lean muscle meat which provides high quality protein alongside natural collagen and cartilage to nourish your dogs joints and enhance structural mobility. As your dog crunches through the ribs, neck, and spine, they ingest highly bioavailable natural forms of calcium and phosphorus, which are necessary for maintaining strong skeletal structures and regulating healthy cellular performance.

As a pure raw bone product, this item is classified as a complementary raw feeding component. Unlike ground bone meal or fine processing powders, presenting whole skeletal structures like flexible ribs, sturdy vertebrae spine segments, and complex neck pieces encourages excellent functional chewing. This mechanical gnawing action behaves as a completely natural toothbrush, effectively scrubbing away soft plaque and hardened tartar accumulations from the teeth while giving the gums a healthy, stimulating massage. Furthermore, the sustained physical effort required to break down these meaty cuts releases natural endorphins in your dogs brain, lowering everyday stress, preventing boredom, and leaving them thoroughly content after their meal.

Suitable For

Breed Size: Primarily ideal for medium, large, and giant breed dogs that enjoy an authentic chewing experience. Smaller dogs that are experienced raw feeders can also enjoy tackling this challenge under careful guidance.

Life Stage: Formulated for adult dogs and older puppies from 24 weeks onwards who have developed strong adult teeth and mature jaw structures.

Feeding Guide and How To Use

Feeding Strategy: Serve straight from thawed. Simply open the 1kg pack and hand a select bone piece directly to your dog. It is highly recommended to feed raw bones on an easily cleanable surface, such as outdoors on the grass or on a large washable floor towel.

Crucial Safety Supervision: Always supervise your dog closely when they are consuming any raw bone item. Take time to observe their chewing style; do not allow aggressive gulpers or dogs unfamiliar with whole bone structures to attempt to swallow large pieces whole.

Handling and Thawing: Store at 18°C and keep frozen until ready to use. Defrost the package inside a sealed container in the refrigerator overnight (approximately 10 to 12 hours) before serving. Never boil, bake, cook, or microwave this product. Cooking raw bone completely alters its cellular matrix, causing it to become brittle, dry, and highly prone to dangerous splintering which can damage your pets digestive tract.

Storage Advice: Once fully defrosted, keep the remaining bones stored in a sealed container in the base of the refrigerator and utilize within 48 hours to maintain ultimate freshness. Do not refreeze the bones once they have thawed out.

Safe Handling: This is a raw livestock product and should be handled with standard hygiene rules. Wash hands, feeding areas, knives, and all prep surfaces thoroughly with warm, soapy water after your dog finishes chewing. Always ensure a bowl of fresh, clean drinking water is readily available.
