What Is Raw Feeding?
Raw feeding is a natural diet made up of raw meat, bone and nutrients — similar to what dogs would eat in the wild. It’s a simple way to give your dog a healthier, more balanced diet.

Why Feed Raw?
• Improved digestion
• Healthier skin & shinier coat
• Smaller, firmer stools
• Better dental health
• Increased energy levels

How Much Should I Feed?
A general guide is to feed 2–3% of your dog’s body weight per day.
Example:
10kg dog → 200g–300g per day
20kg dog → 400g–600g per day
Always adjust based on your dog’s activity level.

How Do I Switch To Raw?
Most dogs can switch straight onto raw food, but if your dog has a sensitive stomach, you can transition gradually.
Simple method:
Day 1–2: 50% current food, 50% raw
Day 3–4: 75% raw
Day 5+: 100% raw
