I could do with some help on feeding raw, like literally an idiots guide because I'm getting myself confused with it all no matter how many raw threads I read, and I really want to get it right because if any of them get ill at the start it may put me off
Can anyone help please?

I am happy to help  Honestly your best bet and cheapest bet is using the DAF minces. However the red meats and meaty mix Cause the runs so I tend to alternate with a wing but Start by using just none in chicken for 2 weeks and go from there. I would just do that for now and not think about anything but that. Amount wise a 5lb dog has 2-3oz per day if it has a high metabolism or is v active it'll need more |

Thanks Sarah. I don't think I can get the DAF minces round here I'm sure I checked the website, but I have ordered natural instinct
So shall I give just chicken wings daily for the 1st week or so or do they need any offal or other chicken parts? Will it not block them up from the amount of bone?
Jake is about 5lb and can lose weight quite quickly but I'll start him on 2%
Heidi is about 9lb but she needs to be between 6-7lb so will start her on about 1% she gains easily

Natural instinct is expensive. Raw To go deliver the daf minces though. But yes just go for the wings however if you use natural instinct you can just put them straight on that as they tend to be bone heavy. I used them to wean the boys onto

Do rawtogo deliver in Warwickshire? The natural instinct is just a temporary thing till I'm confident about doing the diet properly as we are nearly out of kibble so I ordered that instead Hopefully I can find a nice butchers round here |

Yeah I'm sure they do. You shouldn't have any problems with natural instinct I've used them and they are v good I don't like the veg in it but they are v good. I'd just whack them straight on it

Our natural instinct order arrived so i'll start them on that but once its used up i would like to get them on the "proper" raw diet or at least if i can find a mince with less veg in, can't seem to find any sites other than NI that will deliver here?
