He's fed raw, and loves it. He's a bit dubious on a new flavour to start with, but once he's had a few mouthfuls and realises - he wolfs the lot. Except offal. We've tried chunked heart and liver. Won't go near it. (BUT, LOVES dried lung treats!) I've tried EVERYTHING! Tried hand feeding it to him, tried mixing it in with other meats that he loves, tried crushing up some really stinky salmon treats as a "garnish" to make it smell/taste better but he just turns his nose up at me and looks very sorry for himself like he's being punished!

Any ideas/tips I can try that I've not thought of yet?! Banging my head against a wall now!
 
If he doesn't like it don't feed it. My first FCR refused turkey in all its forms which was a shame when I was given 20 turkey carcus one christmas
 
My dogs are big raw fans however they won't eat raw offal. I just plonk whatever it is in a big pan (stinking out the house in the process!) and cook it for them and then they eat it up.
 
Mine isn't too keen on offal fed alone. I get my butcher to make a pet mince which contains all sorts of meat, including offal. She gets some of that in the morning and something like a stripped chicken carcass with either egg/sardines/a little more mince in the evening.
