GREEN TRIPE 
All flavors & sizes in stock now! Don't miss out! Be sure to stop by and get your freezer full of this very popular product.  We even have K-9 Magic in stock! Yay!  Want to know what all the hype is about and why green tripe is a great food for your dog? Check out this article...

Don't get suckered!  
Buying canned, dried or kibbled tripe foods DO NOT provide the same benefits. Of course, the flavor and smell are tasty, but these formats of green tripe provide ZERO additional benefits to your dog other than a denatured protein source. Please don't waste your money!  To reap the full rewards of this excellent food, you simply must feed RAW (not canned or processed) fresh or frozen green tripe from grass-finished ruminants.

Don't get carried away either!
Yes, green tripe is *awesome* and we highly recommend feeding it to dogs of every age.  However, we also strongly suggest limiting this food to no more than 30% of your animal's total raw diet.  Green tripe provides a balanced ca:ph ratio, but feeding a single food over time, especially a single cut of a single food, exposes your pet to serious nutritional imbalances and deficiencies.  Don't get carried away with your dog's love for tripe!  DO feed tripe, but just be sure to feed more than this, too -- including many different raw cuts from a variety of other proteins (four, at minimum)  is vitally important to providing a balanced diet for your dog.
 
MINDFUL MEATS: BEEF TONGUE IN STOCK NOW + LEAN MEAT DISCOUNT

ALPACA MEAT IS A "YES!"
The Alpaca meat samples that we received were a real hit with everyone so we have finalized a large order with the producer.  This is ground alpaca meat (burgers) packed into 1-lb bags and frozen (under $5/lb, which is an excellent value!) We plan to get a large shipment/pallet the end of October. This will be another "one off" deal because the producer is selling his property, but if you want to see the ranch, check out this video that shows his alpaca operation. 

ABOUT ALPACAS OF AMERICA
Alpacas of America (AOA), since 1984, proudly offers heart healthy grass fed alpaca meat. Alpaca meat is one of the world's healthiest red meats [23% Protein, 2% fat (1.7g/3 oz. meat), high in Omega 3, CLA and Vitamin E]. Eaten for thousands of years by the Ancient Incas and currently a traditional meat and delicacy in South America.
 
Our alpacas are naturally raised on a beautiful 1740 acre ranch. The ranch has a variety of habitats consisting of 350 acres of prairie grassland, 50 acres of oak woodland, 300 acres of rolling hill upland grassland with the remainder in forest. The alpacas are rotated on 61 large fenced pastures for optimum grass, legume and forage management affording the alpacas a high quality diet and life Alpacas are earth friendly, low soil impact (large padded feet), pelleted feces and high feed converters.
 
The taste of grass fed Alpaca meat is similar to grass fed beef with some saying the flavor is between Lamb and beef. They graze on grass, legumes, forbs, and browse which provides a complete natural balanced diet. We very much admire and respect our alpacas, and humanely harvest non breeding males that have had a quality life. We strongly support and practice Organic Ranch Management and sustainable farming.
