Labmad? Do you want any meat?
Last week I had ordered extra for you and got a very late reply after the meat was here saying you couldn't get over.
You said that you would make it ths tuesday but again I have heard nothing from you.

I can't keep getting extra if your not going to be coming for it, I don't have the extra freezer space and it leaves me having to spend my time trying to get rid of fresh meat to others.

I do this for free, would be nice to at least be told before the meat delivery day so I can sort out for other people beforehand.
Thank you

I only get meat on a Tuesday, and because you were coming far and wanted a large amount I asked him to bring more than normal to cover the amount worth it for you to come over. instead of just 2 or 3 spare crates spare for people.


Shell, all I ask is that meat is collected on the Tuesday I have it delivered. Thats it really. Anything people give me is totally up to them but I offer it for free as it feeds dogs lol

Sorry everyone. But due to minority who have left me in the lurch with meat I have no freezer space for and I have had a complaint now. I don't have a car so if people don't turn up I have to wait til next day when hubby finishes work for him to take it to the skip in a wheel barrow.

Sadly I am now not going to be able to offer anyone free meaty bones. I am truely sorry but because of this I am no longer going to be able to get them myself.

Thank you and sorry.

Its a pain in the arse sorting it out for others isn't it. I just put people in touch with suppliers now.
Did you not find your dogs struggled to pass stools with that much bone intake? I used to/can still get lamb ribs, necks etc for nothing but theres a bit too much bone for everyday use so I feed chicken and beef mince etc to vary the diet.

If your only feeding the lamb ribs and hardly anything else in the diet then expect your dog to be constipated.......too much bone is not good and may cause a blockage.........

The key is variety.......and hope people dont just feed the lamb bones or other bones just because they were free........feeding just one thing in the diet may lead to deficiencies elsewhere, so just keep plenty of variety on the go
