    Mine have:
    Raw minced chicken, beef & tripe. Avoid pork, it doesn’t seem to agree with most dogs. They also have the occasional raw egg, complete with shell & chopped up raw veg (except potato and onions)
    I wouldn’t worry about salmonella, my dogs are scavengers and eat decomposing, dessicated rabbits skin, fur and all and other less identifiable things without ill effects!
    Raw feeding is far better than feeding your dog on 100% processed food which is what commercial dog foods are.

    I feed mainly chicken, beef and pork, (sometimes squirrel ;) )
    Turkey (even raw) tends to give my dogs gas.
    Pork is not for every dog, as some dogs tend to have certain allergies or its disagreeable to their digestive tract.
    We have to remember that most vets or veterinary assistants are not qualified in canine nutrition (it is not taught in most universities/colleges)
    And thus should not be giving negative views toward raw feeding as they tend to spew untrue “facts” about it so they can endorse their own corn based crap that they’re paid by the company to sell :)

    The above meats listed by Koaussie are GOOD for dogs… LOL, not bad for them.
    It really depends on what you want as well.
    Turkey, chicken and lamb are lean meats, beef is much more fatty (even lean beef) and venison is in between.

    Ah what you’re all stupidly forgetting is that chicken has a surprisingly high chance of carrying salmonella. Skip the chicken, if you want to raw feed. Raw feeding isn’t good for the dog to begin with, but it’s your dog. And also pork is likely to cause pancritites. You’ll be going to the vet in a few years with a dog with a vitamin deficiency regardless of which meats you feed. Did all the raw food lovers also forget to mention that?
