  1. How should I transition my pet to raw?

 

  • There are several ways and many different opinions on how to transition your pet to raw. We simply suggest starting out by feeding muscle meat and bone for the first week. When you reach the second week, keep feeding the muscle meat and bone but start introducing organ every other day while monitoring your dog’s stool and reaction to the raw.

  • We make this transition process easier by having a No Organ Transition Blend. This blend includes beef and turkey muscle meat with Turkey bone. So, for the second week of transitioning, use the organ chunks of your choosing.

  • Remember, introduce organ slowly.

  • Keep in mind, always monitor your pet, especially during the transition process. Don't let this process overwhelm you, all pets are a little different. Your pet’s transition period is 1-2 weeks or longer. After the transition, you can then start them on one of our Prey Model 80/10/10 blends. These include 80% muscle meat, 10% bone, and 10% organ. If you have any questions, please contact us.

 

  1. What if my pet has diarrhea?

 

  • During transitioning, diarrhea can be expected. If this occurs, feed more bone until you notice the stool firming up. Start cutting down on excess bone and start feeding back to normal.

  • Keep in mind, reducing fat and cutting out skin along with feeding less can also resolve your pet having diarrhea.

  • Remember,it is a good idea to do as much research as you can before feeding raw.
