Adult dogs should be fed, as a guide, 2-3% of their bodyweight per day.

Being a fresh product once defrosted, keep for 48-72hours in a refrigerator. This meal should be fed raw. Thoroughly defrost food before serving.

Always remember good hygiene practices, handle as you would any other raw meat. Wash hands and utensils after handling.

How much raw food should I feed my dog?

All dogs are different and the amount of food they need depends on their daily energy requirement, which varies according to many factors including their breed, activity level, age and environment. In broad terms raw feeding guidelines suggest feeding a daily ration of 2-3% of their bodyweight. Small breed dogs will need more and large breeds, less. Note that credible research (Richard D. Kealey et al, JAVMA, Vol 220, 2002) has shown that dogs fed a restricted diet live longer so we recommend starting at the lower end of the range and increasing the amount as necessary in order to achieve an ideal body condition.

Remember to use your dog’s ideal body-weight – not necessarily its current weight. The above table represents daily needs.
