Raw Feeding Suggestions


Experience the Raw Difference: A raw food diet allows for increased digestibility and bioavailability of ingredients and nutrients.
You will often be able to feed less food daily compared to a commercial pet food diet.

Calculating Daily Servings:

Adult Feeding Guidelines

The best formula for calculating daily servings is to base food volume on your pet's body weight.

Adults

  • Maintenance: 2–3% of body weight

  • Weight Loss: 1.5% of target weight

  • Weight Gain: 3% of current weight

Puppies & Kittens

  • Feed according to the age-based charts on the following page.

Small Pets Under 25 lb

  • Never feed less than 4 oz per day regardless of calculations.
