Pork kidneys

I get raw meat of different sorts, organs, ground and chunk from a reputable pastured-animal farm as well as raw turkey wings from another farm. All comes to me frozen and is thawed before offering.

Listen was a bit slower ie not gobbling up her first pork kidney, as she is super enthusiastic mostly about all I feed her. (3-year-old Malamute, eating raw for 2.5 of those years).

She ate it together with her evening sludge but, because she was slower at ingesting the kidney, I checked with the farm to see if their kidneys are washed/cleaned before freezing. They are not.

I had read somewhere about having to really clean kidneys before offering them (definitely, humans do that before eating them). In the wild, a wolf or coyote would not be washing/cleaning a kidney ;) but, in fact, do they actually pass on kidneys?
 
yes, Myokyo, they do eat kidneys.
So great that you post these questions for all to learn from.
Dogs, just like us, do have preferences and aversions - to texture & smell. Note this in the journal if she continues to not like kidneys.
