Cutting it back will stimulate new additional growth, but is generally considered to weaken the tree.

Hi;

Yes, you just want to cut them up into whatever size pieces make sense for your dogs. I've fed beaver in the past, but the only way I could get it was ground. I suspect overall it is going to be on the fattier side, so depending on how your dogs do with fat, you may need to limit the amount you feed at one time. The fat isn't bad for them, some dogs just don't handle larger percentages of fat very well and will end up with some digestive upset / loose stools from a meal that is too fatty. If they are not already dressed, you may want to remove the guts before feeding, depending on how your dogs do with them and if your feeding somewhere that a mess could be a problem. The guts are fine for them to eat if they want to.

I don't know of any parasite problems with beavers; it wouldn't hurt to have them frozen for a few weeks prior to feed them, if they haven't already been frozen that long. Most parasites if present die off with a couple weeks of freezing; the only thing I know that is really resistant to this is a strain of Trich found in some wild bears, I would personally suggest avoiding bear.

Let me know if you have other questions. I have a pet forum setup called PawDogs. It has a section on Raw Feeding here: http://www.pawdogs.com/prey-model-raw-feeding/

Thank You!

I have this entire roast recorded here:

I did not hold the door open at all. I find it cools just find on it's own. Yes, I do think that this is a Full City +, I had called it light Vienna also but now that I have seen it sit for a couple days, I've going with City+.

Let me know if that video doesn't answer your questions.

Thanks
Jamie

Thank You.

The turface mix does drain very fast. When we re-planted it, I got off as much of the dirt from the root ball as I could. It was just junk top soil, but had apparently adapted well to it, as represented by it's size. I mixed in about 10% compost with the turface. I'm quite confident that the new soil mix is at least as fast as what it was growing in.

Have you had bad luck with turface MVP holding too much water?
