I feed my girl frozen chicken carcasses during summer, and defrosted ones
during winter :-)

She also gets raw chicken pieces (wings/thighs, drumsticks etc) with the
bones in, roo tails, and dry dog biscuits now and then.

Any lamb chops (blech!!) that I *have* to cook, or T-bones etc, I cut the
raw bones out and give them to her.

I also have a friend nearby that makes doggy treats/biscuits to sell (looks
to be for *bloody* small dogs though) so I'll grab her next time I see her
and ask if she'll part with the recipe.
