Yes, yes, yes! There are no recipes, just hand them a chicken leg or a pork chop. What you do need to know is that the diet should be about 80% meat, 10% bone and 10% organ meats including lots of liver. The diet should be mainly red meats, about 80% with the rest being poultry and fish.
It is best to start with one protein source and feed that for a couple weeks then add a second source. Most people start with chicken. This way you can tell if anyone has an allergy to something.
Please read a lot about it and you won't believe how great your dogs will look and act once you make the switch.Should I feed my dog a raw diet?
What breeds?Should I feed my dog a raw diet?
absolutely! I have two poms and 2 labs and a rottweiler. They all are doing great on it. The raw diet (if done right) helps organs run smoother, the coat to be healthier, and more nutrients to be absorbed by the dog. One of my poms used to have issues with impacted anal glands, he hasn't had one since we switched diets. You can get the diet pre-portioned from pet stores for easy measuring. They can eat less since they get more out of the food on the raw diets, they will have less health issues. Kibble usually contains some type of wheat and a lot of filler, where the raw diet is staight to the point (the kind i feed my dogs has liver, meat, ground bone in it). If you are really worried about it, you can always ask your vet, however, most of them are sponsored by Science Diet and might be biased. Hope it helps..
--I still give my poms kibble as a snack to help keep their teeth strong.
