jacobite Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 Pam was staying with some Deerhound friends in UK a while ago, there you can buy green tripe in 1 Kg frozen blocks, very handy and the dogs LOVE it. Can we get it here in Australia ? We live in the Eastern suburbs ( Belgrave ) of Melbourne. Thanks in advance Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stolzseinrotts Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 (edited) Great stuff Green Tripe. If you can find a reliable supplier please let me know. ;) Edited June 16, 2011 by Stolzseinrotts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poodlefan Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 My understanding is it's not legal to sell it raw here. Ziwipeak do a canned version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nekhbet Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 you will probably need to call abbetoir's directly to ask about its availability to the public. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bianca.a Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 I have asked a few butchers locally (one even called their supplier for me) and have been told it is not legal to sell it unbleached. It has to be fit for human consumption = bleached or white Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cassie Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 Is the green tripe toxic to humans or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emilee Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 Is the green tripe toxic to humans or something? no but it stinks something shocking. Green tripe is the cows stomach - just washed in plain water, the dogs love it but I would say many owners would be put off by the smell alone It is against Primesafe regulations for an abbatoir to sell it to the public in Victoria. I can't speak for any other state. You may be able to get it from a Knackery but I can't see the Knackey staff being too willing to seperate it out from the rest of the intestines and empty it of its contents.

shelby-001 Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 Illegal here in QLD to sell it also, it must be bleached..... HOWEVER... if you can build a relationship with someone that butchers their own cows, there is now reason why they can't give it to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mim Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 For those in WA, you can get green tripe from the Pet Chef http://www.thepetchef.com.au/scart/products.php?cat=2&pg=4 I have a kilo of it sitting in the freezer because the dogs won't touch it!! I'll try again on a hot summers day, maybe the heat will make it smell even worse and they will eat it then. They seem to eat everything else that smells horrid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piper Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 Oh I didn't think you could get it in SA, I had always been told it was illegal to sell unbleached. How much does it cost? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cazxxz Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 (edited) I found a place to buy green tripe! I have some in my freezer now, and the dogs have all had a serve today. I will be interested to see if there is any improvement to their health. The shop is in a northern suburb of Melbourne - this thread has put me off broadcasting its name, even though the owner said to tell people they've got it. So PM me if you want details! It cost $9.35/kg and will be frozen by now (I got it raw - it's not as gross as I was expecting, but is still not pleasant). EDIT: The pet supply shop I was getting tripe from has now closed. As others have said, tripe is available in the K9 Naturals range, and I think I have seen it in Vets All Natural packaged food. I'm not sure if it's green tripe in the VAN though.

I thought it was illegal to sell it unbleached and it's not worth buying if it is bleached because it has lost it's goodness...may be wrong though!!!
