2. Don’t concern about your pet dog getting ill from bacteria.
This is a concern a great deal of us have at first. even though we understand dogs are carnivores (or at least omnivores), we’re still freaked out about raw meat.
I was anxious about this too, which is type of funny to me now. Today, I have actually zero concerns my pet dog will get ill from bacteria in raw meat. If I might have a unfavorable portion of worry, I would. That’s exactly how bit I worry.
Just make sure to laundry your hands after managing raw meat as well as you’re good. ?
3. keep homemade raw pet dog food simple.
You can make raw feeding as challenging as you want, however there’s no need. See my simple raw pet dog food recipes here.
Just stock up on the protein source you plan to begin with, as well as add a lot more range in a couple of weeks.
I suggest starting with poultry quarters or poultry thighs (bone in). Feed them partially frozen to sluggish your pet dog down or hold onto the meat while he eats to motivate him to chew vs. gulp.
It’s okay if your pet dog ends up swallowing pieces of raw poultry meat as well as bone, however it’s much easier for him to digest the bone if he crunches it up a bit first. Some dogs requirement to discover to do this.
I suggest you prevent other kinds of bones for now since poultry bones are the softest as well as simplest for dogs to digest. I understand lots of raw feeders who provide their dogs pork bones as well as even beef bones, however I like to stay with the softer poultry as well as turkey bones.
See my publish on what bones are risk-free for dogs.
Start adding in a bit organ meat in a week or two as well as a few other protein sources as well as about 10 percent bone.
It’s not rocket science.
Just aim for range over time, complying with the general policy of 80 percent meaty meat, 10 percent organ meat, 10 percent bone.

4. get a bag or two of frozen, pre-made raw pet dog food.
Just get at least one bag of pre-made frozen raw pet dog food to have on hand while you get started. even if you don’t plan to feed pre-made raw food longterm (that shit’s expensive!), it’s great to have at first.
For me, feeding my pet dog pre-made raw food takes a few of the pressure off since the food is prepared to go as well as balanced. I suggest you begin with a protein source your pet dog is utilized to, like chicken.
Our preferred brand is Darwin’s.
I’ve fed Stella & Chewy’s as well as Primal, however you can’t go wrong with a lot of brands.
5. Feed one meal dry as well as one meal raw.
Some people will freak out as well as state you can “never” mix raw pet dog food as well as kibble. “Oh the horror!”
I say, get over it.
The reason some raw feeders alert not to mix the two is since dogs digest the raw food quicker than they do the kibble, so mixing the two can provide some dogs upset tummies.
I’d likewise like to point out that people have an much easier time digesting specific foods compared to other foods, as well as that doesn’t stop us from eating a random combo in one meal! Gotta like a great buffet or pot luck!
But, just to be safe, you might feed your petHond één droge maaltijd elke dag en één rauwe maaltijd in plaats van de twee te mengen. Begooide ze om 10 tot 12 uur om uw huisdierhond veel tijd te bieden om het droge voedsel te verteren.
Als je nog steeds merkt dat je hond een overstuur buik heeft, dan is het misschien op een dag zo goed voeden voor je hond. Elke hond is een beetje anders. Ik ontdek dat oudere honden die het langst droog voedsel eten, de moeilijkste tijd hebben met nieuw voedsel.
Een ander idee dat mijn hond lijkt te helpen, is om de eerste paar dagen echt het echte voedsel te koken.
Dus als ik kip voed, zal ik het gewoon bakken, de botten elimineren en die mengen met zijn brokken. Dat lijkt zijn systeem te helpen beseffen: “Oh! We staan nu op het punt echt eten te eten! ”
Dus dat zijn mijn basisideeën om u te helpen aan de slag te gaan.
