Hi There,
Just after a bit of re-assurance...
Got a bit worried the other day as we took Bentley to a different Vet and they basically went off at me for feeding him a raw diet and that "it doesn't contain enough calories for a puppy and does not have the right amount of nutrition etc."
I know vets tend to be rather uneducated on raw dieting or more biased towards the processed food they are paid to sell but I just wanna check up to see what others think of the diet Bentley has been on for the last 4 months (BTW he seems to be doing very well on it from my perspective.. including in the poo department )
Each day roughly contains:
- 1 chicken frame (roughly 250g - half of that being bone)
- 120g of Organ (not too much liver, mostly kidney etc)
- 800g of meat (usually shredded beef or minced chicken/pork/lamb etc)
- 1 fish oil capsule (1000mg) or a teaspoon of coconut oil
- once a week i will include sardines and an egg or two (including shell)
Do you think there is anything i should be modifying? I just don't wanna affect his overall health by not including something or giving him too much of one thing.
