Hi all

We want to try Roo with a bone from the butchers ... is he old enough? He is 13 weeks old. Also, can he have venison ears etc from Burns?

Thanks, Tom, Han and Roo

Hi there

I started giving Digger marrowbones from the butchers around this age. Used to give him 15minutes or so with it then take it away and store it in the fridge and give him it for a wee while the following day etc. This way he wasn't eating too much marrow and giving himself a dodgy belly!

Roo will love them hopefully, they're great cos it gives you a ,sometimes needed, moment of peace *LOL*

We just got him 2 frozen marrowbones and one butcher gave us stupidly an entire leg, where talking 1 metre + long what on earth do we do with this?

Is he ok with lamb bone?

Scoop the marrow out.. put into a bowl.. pour boiling water over it... pour into ice cube trays and freeze...with the hot weather coming up... lovely tasty ice cubes to munch on Wink
