Raw Feeding Dogs & Puppies
Begin your raw feeding journey by following our step-by-step guide!
We've tried to provide everything you need to get started.......except the pet ;)
Raw feeding is a lifestyle choice for both you and your dog or puppy. The journey is smooth for many but can be a little bumpy for some. Don't give up, the benefits are more than worth it....!
Step 1
How much of this and how much of that for MY dog/puppy?
Our easy to use raw feeding calculator will give correct daily portions and ratios of raw to feed your dog/puppy, according to their age, weight and body condition.
Our other calculator will also give an estimate of raw feeding costs. The cost estimator is for feeding 80/10/10 products – you can successfully raw feed for less than the estimate and also spend a lot more - if you wish!
Step 2
What should I feed?
Start with only one or two proteins that are easy to digest. We do not recommend mixing raw food with dry foods. We advise a "cold turkey" switch, feeding only raw food from Day 1. Leave introducing the 10% secreting organ until weeks three or four. For the easiest transition - try one of our starter packs, which include step-by-step instructions!
We recommend you choose from ONE of the following for the first 7 days if new to raw feeding:
-
Minced Chicken & Tripe (max 10% bone)
-
Minced Tripe (lamb tripe or beef tripe)
-
Minced Rabbit
-
Boneless Chicken (minced or chunks)
-
Minced Chicken (max 10% bone)
-
Minced Tripe & Turkey (max 10% bone)
After the first week, if you are happy things are going smoothly, and stools are solid but not dry or crumbly, introduce a new protein every other day or so. Don't forget the 10% secreting organ from Week 3! Introduce the organ slowly - start with as little as 2% of overall diet and build up to the full 10% over a period of at least 1-2 weeks.
Step 3
How do I order?
Finding products is so easy! Each category and section can be further sorted by price. Each product description shows bone content and protein content clearly.
We even have a category just for new starters. This category contains safe products to feed from Day 1.
