Dear Mr Ravenscroft

Thank you for your letter and recent reminder congratulating us on our Butcher's Tripe Mix product.

We receive many similar letters from satisfied owners writing to us on behalf of their dog. Yours is the first letter we have had from a human consumer.

The Feeding Stuffs Regulations 1995 require us by law to describe tripe on the label under the heading meat and animal derivatives. The term offal is not permitted although as you point out it is nothing to be ashamed of.

Please remember Butcher's Tripe Mix is a complementary food and to keep your nose wet and coat in tip top condition you must eat it mixed with an equal quantity of reputable mixer meal.

Please find enclosed £5 worth of vouchers towards your future purchases.

Yours sincerely

Ian Cresswell
Technical Manager
