Question 3

Why should I feed a Raw Diet?

Accepted Answer

Dogs are suffering from allergies and cancers in record proportions. Dogs have the highest rate of cancers than any other mammal on the planet.
​
Research now shows that 90% of the allergies and cancers that dogs suffer are due to environmental and lifestyle factors. The biggest proportion of these factors come from poor nutrition. Research conducted shows that dogs who are consuming a raw diet have a 90% decrease in cancer rates and their life span may double. 
​
From my own research my dog's allergies decreased from almost dying every year from an auto-immune disorder and to having yeast infections so bad that they covered his entire skin to now being allergy free.
​
The below list are the observations I made after switching my own dogs to a raw diet.
​
They enjoy their food. My Husky would go through stages of not eating until I switched to a raw diet and now she is excited about dinner time again.
The raw diet is the most natural to their wild counter-parts. The dog’s nutritional requirements have not changed dramatically over time.

Question 4

How Should I introduce my dog’s new diet?

Accepted Answer

For best results, Introduction of your dog’s new food should be made gradually. If your dog is already eating a meat meal than Introduce the food from Canine Carvery in increments and mix with the old food. For example:
 
Days 1 - 3   – Feed 75% of Your dog’s old food to 25% of Canine Carvery
Days 4 - 6   – Feed 50% of your dog’s old food to 50% of Canine Carvery
Days 7 - 10 – Feed 25% of your dog’s old food to 75% of Canine Carvery
Days 11 onwards  – 100% of Canine Carvery
 
The above is merely used as a guide and the above process could take less or more time. Keep an eye on your dog’s stools and if they appear to have digestive upset than slow down the process.
 
Do not feed dry food with wet food as your dog’s digestive system processes the two different food sources differently and will cause confusion to your dog’s digestive system.

Question 5

How much do I feed to my dog?

Accepted Answer

Recommended feeding is 2-3% of your dog’s adult body weight. This includes puppies. Estimate what your dog’s adult body weight will be and feed accordingly.  Pregnant bitches will need a higher percentage.
It should be recognised that the above ratios are to be used as a guide only and individual pets may require more or less food than recommended. This will depend on their metabolism, lifestyle and age. You as a pet owner are in the best position to determine quantity, and how often to feed using your pet’s demeanour, body condition and general health as a guide. If in doubt, please consult your Veterinarian.
