My lab likes it but the farts will drive you out of the house.

Only if I loan my customers the 100 dollars.

Cage free!

X 1000 I always fed my labs most of the beaver I caught, but man you couldn't hear them pharts, but they were so thick and nasty smelling, ya could see them ooze their way out and head right for your nose !!! LOL

Beaver meat is the bomb for dog food. High protein, high energy, low waste. Like Gulo, the ones I didn't eat went to my dog team. A team that has been eating beaver is like a nuclear missile!! You want to make sure you can hang onto the sled !

we have fed our dogs beaver meat exclusively from november till March.

between us Jerry and I have. 7 dogs.all of them love the beaver carcasses as do the cats...thwyre so fat thwy look like Garfield.(cats also like muscrat carcasses but our dogs pass em up for beaver)

they range from a jack Russel to a 80 pound black and tan mix named rascal

worms have nevwr been an issue for us as we just regularly work our dogs.

they save us alot of money on dog food and if I knew it was legal in my state id stickpile some for summer although they'd have to be quartered and freeze because a while carcass would rot before they could eat it otherwise as the weather warms

we have a friend who Jerry gives some because he fee2da them to the foxes he keeps for collecting urine

the only problems ive ever had feeding them to the dogs is an occasional dog fight and a neighbor who gets whizzed cause a couple of his dogs keep coming down and snagging carcasses and takin em home.

oh the really really big problem is the stench of the gas they pass after eating them.
many times weve had to roll down the windows to keep from passailn out or puking..
(thats thw main reason thw neighbor doesnt line an..hes got BIG dogs and I can only imagine.lol :sick.

Question about feeding to dogs:
I have given my dogs some beaver meat over the years but never a lot. More as a treat. I have heard that it makes great feed.
A couple years ago I figured fresh ground venison would make good feed for my sled dogs. It did not. Caused a lot of bloody stools. I private mailed White17 and asked him about it.
Never thought to ask him about feeding beaver meat.

Do you folks just freeze it fresh then feed it out with kibble or what?
Thanks
Mac

Mine too. The farts are worse than the wife’s. Rank!

More meat, less veggies

I had a neighbor who used to feed his border collies beaver carcasses until one got an intestinal clog with beaver meat and bone. Vet said it he would need to charge $1500 to operate and save the dog. My neighbor ended up using a warm water enema and saved him that way.

Probably could make a move on the pig ear market with beaver feet. Dogs love them. I won't even go into how crazy they get about tails.

I have a registered German Short- Haired pointer, that I fed beaver meat to. Now that dog will lock up at every beaver pond I come to. I have to stomp the water with my foot, and fire a shot into the air, before the dog will break the point. Then it starts hunting for a dead beaver to retrieve. Just kidding.

My brother who lives near by is always half ticked with me because his dogs come down and grab beaver hind feet and then jump into bed with them with a nice foot to chew on. My dog used to prefer them tainted so he would bury them all over the place and dig them up months later.

I have fed a lot of it straight (fresh or fresh froze). Seems like my hounds get a little turned off by it after a few days. They will still eat it but don't go crazy for it. I started mixing it with cheap kibble and that seems to work pretty good. Plus, when I run out of beaver or forget to thaw some out it isn't as drastic of a change. Butchered a downer cow the other day and they seem to prefer chunked beef over quartered beaver. Keep your dogs wormed but should be doing that anyway.

When we used to have dog mushers in Aklavik I use to try and give them beaver carcasses for the dog pot but they did not want them said somebody told them that eating beaver affects the dogs memory makes them stupid. Some form of parasite. You guys ever hear anything like that?
Dogs really love lynx carcass.

LOL !!!!!!!!!!! Never heard anything like that. I wonder if it has the same affect on humans ?

Check out this book. It gives you dog food recipes, has a great dog house plan in it, medicine info, and all sorts of stuff.

I'm surprised the bunny huggers haven't taken it off of amazon yet. It was written by a hound guy obviously and not PC in anyway.

I always bring home about about 60-80 lbs of backstrap and hindquarters and once a week cook up 5 lbs or so. I’ll eat some and mix a bit into his kibble every day. Not too much as he’s getting old and prone to gaining weight ( not like me) . When I run out he gets mad at me. And yeah, gives him gas.

What the heck is Kibble ?
