GENERAL RAW FEEDING SUGGESTIONS

The Evidence Speaks For Itself!

A raw food diet allows for increased digestibility and bioavailability of the ingredients and nutrients.

​

You will be able to feed your pet less food daily as compared to a commercial pet food diet. 

The best formula for calculating daily servings of food is to base food volume off your pets’ body weight. We recommend serving 2 -3 % of your pet’s body weight (in ounces of food), split into two daily meals—morning and evening. Puppies and kittens should be fed twice the amount of food as compared to an adult dog or cat. The daily food intake level should be measured in ounces to ensure the most precise method of feeding raw food. You also can incorporate raw meaty bones into your pets’ diet, but never feed cooked bones to your pets.

​

*Please note that this is a general guideline, and you will need to take into consideration your pets’ activity level, age, health, and breed and adjust accordingly. Once your pet has transitioned 100% to raw food, additional adjustments may need to be made based on visual observations of your pets’ weight loss or gain. Please ensure your pet always has access to plenty of fresh water. 

​

You will notice a significant change in your pets’ waste from feeding a raw diet.

The stool during the transition phase will appear loose but should never be runny. You also may notice a mucous layer which is normal. Once your pets’ body has become acclimated to a raw diet, the stool will become hard and compact, and the overall size and frequency of elimination will be significantly reduced as compared to a commercial diet.

​

Another exciting benefit of a raw diet is a relatively odorless stool for both cats and dogs.
