Sharing a CSA from Deck Family Farm with your dog(s) can be so simple, and really gives such a cool full circle feeling. In fact, we’ve eaten seasonally and shared our meat scraps with canines for as long as they’ve existed beside us.

Not only does Deck offer a grind of organ specifically for pets, you can also share their:
Beef and pork bones
Raw milk, yogurt and butter
Chicken hearts
Chicken feet
Produce of all kinds and sooooo much more.

🍃✨ Nature is our snuffle mat. ✨🍃
Sniffing for Fauna Pet Market dried bison lung 🦬

Dogs are facultative carnivores, meaning that they’re partly scavenging animals… sniffing and searching through natural environments for food is quite literally what they’re meant to be doing.

It is lawn care and grass seed season, so be mindful of where they’re sniffing, but some healthy soil and lush greenery is the perfect place to sprinkle some treats, and I much prefer to watch them forage in the forest over stuffing their face in chemically dyed fabrics and plastic found on your typical “snuffle mat”. Though those have a place as well.

🦴 give your dog a bone, it’s good for them. 🦴

Raw bones (never cooked) from pasture raised animals are incredibly important components to our dogs well-being.

Offering raw bones regularly contributes to clean teeth, a peaceful mind, strong skeletal structure, capable joints, definition of cranial muscles, and so so so much more.

Determining the right bone for your dog is important, follow along or reference previous posts to learn more about what that might look like for your mutt!

Years ago, when I first started sourcing meat and seasonal produce to share with my dogs, It really opened my eyes to my own diet and helped me to have a new reverence for where my food came from and how it was raised or grown.

Honoring our dogs in this way, invites us to honor ourselves, our environment, and the creatures we share it with just the same.

What a gift it is to be here sharing our lives with such special companions, able to access so much nourishment nearby!

It’s easy to get in the habit of discouraging our dogs from eating grass, as their guardians It’s a bit awful dealing with the inevitable retching and p**p scoots… however, those are the benefits our dogs are innately seeking.

The persistent and intuitive consumption of wild herbs, like common grasses, cleavers, dandelions, and others maintain healthy function through the digestive tract: detoxing, cleaning, and even clearing of some parasites.

Many are under the impression that our dogs will only indulge if they are sick or suffering from stomach pains, and while they certainly may utilize it when that is the case, it’s largely consumed as a preventative, helping to avoid those upsets to begin with.
