Raw Feeders: Question.
So, anyone that feeds raw (all, snack, once-in-a-while, ect).
How long does it take your dog to finish his/her food? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Lizzie can finish a Chicken Leg in about 15/20 mins and a Turkey Wing in 10mins. Major on the other hand takes atleast 45 mins to finish a CL.

I give raw frozen chicken leg quarters on occassion. Sawyer will take his time and make it last about 15-20 minutes, while Virgo gets hers down in between 5-10 minutes. Times are approx. because I've never paid much attention to the clock when they're eating. But I know that Virgo sees it as a personal challenge to see how quick she can eat while still chewing. It's half the reason she gets her frozen, it makes her slow down a bit. If it was fresh, I think it would be gone in about 2 minutes.

 Gipsy gets grains as an addition though!

Pearl is on raw food and raw bones. All my guys get raw bones.
I feed her food that my aunt makes up, and its in a 8 oz pattie. I feed her 2 patties, twice a day, and its usually gone in 5 seconds LOL For all my guys on the raw bones from the butcher, they last about a day, if that long.

With my 3 it depends on what they are having. Typically Bruzer is finished his meal in about 30 seconds because I chop his bones up (after our CPR issue a while back, he rarely gets a whole bone). If the meal for Gunnar and Daisy is something like leg quarters and a muscle meat, she will finish in about 3-4 minutes, and he takes his time, 10 minutes or so. Last night they all got venison. She got a shoulder that was about 3.5lbs, he got a rack of ribs that was about 2.5lbs. They took at least 30 mins to finish those.

Meals don't last long around here. If it is muscle meat, boneless, it is gone in seconds. Leg quarters or neck bones can take 5-10 minutes. A healthy dog with a proper appetite usually attacks and eats food quickly when it is presented.

Depends on whether or not Shiva's in the vicinity.
My two eat a lot slower now that we're at my house . . . . because they can, lol!
