The answer is definitely yes—but here’s what you should know:
-
Green tripe is not for the faint of heart.
It looks like brains and smells… well, like poop. But that’s part of what makes it so valuable. It’s packed with digestive enzymes and beneficial bacteria that support your dog’s gut health. -
Storage matters.
Don’t store it in plastic unless you’re okay with your containers smelling like cow stomach forever. Glass or dedicated freezer containers are your friend here. -
It’s a social experiment.
Your roommates might hate you—but your dog (and your dog friends) will absolutely love you. -
Quality is everything.
We recommend sourcing from Greentripe.com. The bleached tripe you’ll find at most grocery stores is not what you want—it’s been stripped of the nutrients that make tripe so beneficial. They offer straight tripe as well as great organ blends. We personally love their Xkaliber formula because it includes ground bone. -
It’s not just for raw feeders.
While green tripe is popular among hardcore raw feeders, even dogs on kibble can benefit from adding some tripe to their diet.
