Raw Puppy Food in NZ Boosts Energy, Health, and Longevity for Your Dog
When you raise your pet on raw puppy food, you’ll reap the benefits of an energetic, healthy and happy dog. Roar Pet Food is passionate about ensuring that your puppy starts life with healthy and nutritional food.
Benefits of Raw Dog Food for Puppies
Raw puppy food will start your new pet off to a healthy and nutritional life. We believe that when you feed your dog food that mimics its ancestral background, the benefits abound. Read below how to transition your puppy to its new diet:
Begin the diet with a choice of one protein source such as raw chicken for puppies and stick with this source for seven days. If there are no digestive upsets, then he is ready for a second protein. Also, commit to a raw diet when he arrives rather than mixing it with the ground pellets of commercial food. Kibble requires a different pH in the stomach, and there is less of a chance for bacteria to build up if his gut digests a raw diet.
You want to balance the calcium and phosphorus of his menu by calculating the percentage of meaty bones, meats, and organ meats. Meaty bones should represent approximately half to two-thirds of his food. Examples include turkey necks, chicken backs, and venison bones. Organ meat and raw meat for puppies comprise the rest of his diet. Organ meats are full of nutrients and should represent ten percent of the food.
You should feed your puppy a small meal three times daily. He can transition to two times a day when he is six months old, and once a day as an adult dog. The best measure of the quantity of food for your puppy is to speculate what his adult weight will be and feed him two to three percent of that amount. You will notice if your puppy is too thin or too chubby and can adjust his diet accordingly.
The Importance of Raw Feeding for Puppies
Those who choose a raw food diet for their dogs notice healthier results in their coats and temperaments within weeks. We believe the long-term effects offer added incentives to introduce raw food to puppies as soon as possible. Listed below are some results owners recognise when their dogs eat a raw diet:
The immediate impact of a raw diet is a shinier coat and an increase in energy. If you are one who likes to show off your pet, then you’ll stand proud as he bounds around in his glowing coat. Another impact of raw food is healthier teeth and gums, and sweeter breath.
Giving your puppy a raw food diet can improve their immune systems because the food contains a lot of fatty acids and other immune system boosting nutrients. The result is a healthier puppy that will grow into a hardier dog.
What better gift can your puppy return to you for feeding him a raw diet than a longer life? Better nutrition means less disease, arthritis, and diabetes resulting in fewer trips to the veterinarian. It is a win-win for both you and your puppy.
