4 oz. Fish (Canned Mackeral)
1 Egg (Raw with shell)
1 TBSP Veggie Glop*
*Spinach, Broccoli, Carrots, Sweet Potato & Apple daily,
plus whatever else is in season ie. berries, squash...
1 TBSP Yogurt
1 TBSP Soaked Oats
1 tsp Oil (Rotated between Wild Salmon Oil & Hemp oil)
1 tsp Raw Honey
1 tsp Kelp
1 tsp Apple Cider Vinegar
500mg Vitamin C (Ester C powdered)
Evening Meal
1-3 Large Chicken Backs (Raw)
or 1/4-1/2 pound Ground Chicken (includes bones)
Recreational Bones
Beef Femur Bones (Raw) - daily for growing pups,
two to three times weekly for adults
Hope this helps
We mix up enough of the "morning meal" to last a week we do this on the weekends. We buy about a weeks supply of chicken backs. I like to cut the backs down each side of the spine to make 3 pieces because Buddy likes to try to swallow after 1 or 2 chews and it looks a bit hard going down.. We divide everything up into 1 meal sizes and put in freezer bags and freeze then thaw over night in fridge as needed. |
Kev, just curious... About how much does it cost a week to feed your guy? I'm interested in feeding raw, but always thought it was too expensive...
