chicken cut
is the leftover fat from hand trimmed chicken breast and can be found
at most grocery stores. If you can't find this, ask the stores meat
manager for it. Watch the discount and clearance sections.

³ German Shepherd Dogs are allergic
to corn and corn direvitives. Use only 'Grain-free' dry food to prevent
severe skin irritations and 'califlower ear'. A very good brand is 4-Health and
can only be found at Tractor Supply stores. 4-Health is relativity
inexpensive and has a good selection to chose from. The CostCo brand dog foods are also a good alternitive.
