If you wanna learn how to transition your dog from kibble to raw, using the mixing method or others, check out this video: ruclips.net/video/6vKC3H7WOcE/видео.html
The debate was started by both Raw and Kibble food industry. Both began to create doubts for each other’s products. The fact is dogs need raw food but the transition should be gradually done, that’s my experience. Both food can be given as per the videos on different times.
This is a fantastic video! I wish I was half as smart as you are. I love that you mention ferrets - ferrets are very easy to overlook when it comes to raw feeding discussions
Always well researched and easy to understand videos. I’ve sent the link to your raw feeding guide to a few friends that have expressed interest in switching.
Thank you, this helps alot! I am not quite ready and reasearched to go full raw, but it seemed to me that if I mainly feed high quality kibble ands some extra raw, it would be beneficial, since I would not have to worry about nutrient gaps but also provide natural food for my cats. It's very good to have some scientific backup say that it is not at least bad!
Your videos are just tooooo good :"""""D Just full of tasty facts and science my brain love love eating all these nutritious video lmao. Keep up the great work!!
I've been recently putting some high quality kitten kibble in a spice grinder and sprinkling into his raw diet. He has been turning his nose up to his raw diet and by sprinkling kibble powder in he's eating it more vigorously now! I have a picky eater, that loves kibble.
Thank you so much this video was really help full was wanting to add some raw food to my dogs diet but can't afford to yo full raw diet and didn't know if you could feed raw and kibble in the same meal as a lot of places say its dangerous glad to know its nonsense and I can give my dog both.
I have a ten week old great Pyrenees, two toddlers and work 40 hours a week. I feed him raw but I’m not always home to give it to him, so he also gets kibble. Glad to see it’s not hurting him.
Thanks for the video and info. I’ve been feeding my GSD kibble in the AM and a healthy mix of raw in the evening for several years now I travel with my dog and can’t bring along the raw, so resort to 2 kibble meals at this time and she has no problem with this transition.
My 3 month old Labrador recently started to eat raw chicken. I mix his kibble and raw food together for bfast, lunch, and dinner and it worked out great! I found out that keeding raw and kibble made his stool smaller and he feels gull for a long time. Your videos are so helpful and amazing!! (i never have to worry about feeding my dog while watching)
@@JESSEPAVON feed your dog a mix of raw and kibble and some bone or chicken feet , and if your dog is like under 3 month ask your breeder what he use to feed him then do it and gradually start changing your dogs diet to a mix after he turns 3 months and if he is doing good no diarrhoea or lose stool then all good .
you can help with the digestion of raw meat by tenderizing the meat with the enzyme. pet manufacturer call them hydrolyzed protein you often see them on pet food packaging. use meat tenderizer(enzyme) prep the meat for 30minutes to an hour but no longer than that otherwise meat will become tasteless. if youre unable to get meat tenderizer(enzyme) you can buy papain tablet from local pharmacy it has similar effect.
4:50 wait so should i feed raw in the morning or in the evening? on screen it shows kibbles in morning and raw in the evening, but voiceover is vice versa
This is so helpful! Thank you! I feed my dog freeze dried + kibble, she’s been doing fine but I am always wondering if it is good for her in the long term. This helps a lot!
Keep in mind that cats and ferrets may not be the same as dogs. There was also a study done in 2015 on the digestibility of kibble and raw meat for cats, and it showed some very different results. There was a significantly higher rate of digestion in the two raw diets (including pre-made grinds) than the kibble. I think it would be a good idea to mention this in the description!
Weird bc if you think about it cats are still eating raw whole prey on their own (at least mine loves to hunt anything) way more often than dogs. You cannot stop an outdoor cat from that, and I doubt our ancestors had any more control over their habits than we do
I am feeding my puppy raw in the morning and kibble in the evening it is easier for me to do so and also cheaper. I was afraid that in the long term it will be problematic. I read some articles and it says that it changes dog's ph and it will have some problems in the future. Do you think this is a problem for long term feeding?
I’m considering doing the same. Is there a particular reason why raw in the morning and kibble in the evening as opposed to the other way around? Or just coincidence?
With my Shepherd, any time we mix raw with kibble- she pukes up all kibble, and no raw. But our Aussie mix has never had a problem. Every dog will react differently! This is a great video... I appreciate the info! Really interesting to see it on an X-ray.
Well my pup eats two meals of raw a day and if he wants more he gets a scoop of kibble. This has mostly. Been because we had kibble to still use up but I have noticed zero issues. Haven’t decided what will do once the kibble is used up, perhaps offer him a meaty bone.
Really enjoy your vids, very informative. I was feeding Victor kibble to my dog when I got him last yr. He actually was doing good and looked great. Switched to raw about 4 months ago and he's had skin problems since. Typical allergy symptoms: head shaking, scratching, etc. Tweaked his food and he's about 80% recovered. Can't seem to get him to 100%.
very belated reply but wanted to ask if you've tried protein elimination, either you feed them a single protein and beginning adding in others while keeping an eye on the symptoms OR you start removing proteins from your current menu:) and keep an eye out. it worked really well for me
i sprinkle some kibble along with raw and other stuff just to keep things switching up and interesting,it works fine,no problems with stool or anything, only difference would be perhaps if i gave too much kibble i would notice more frequent poops and in bigger size, comparing to pure raw ones
What about got older dogs that have been fed kibble their whole lives? Wouldn’t that mean their gastric ph might not be as acidic as even as a dog who’s the same age but had been fed raw for a while?
I tried giving my dog separated meals. Raw for breakfast and kibble for dinner. Until one morning she was vomiting and had diarrhea b4 breakfast. I’m not sure if I should of been mixing them instead? But I have given up since then
Hello, I tried raw feeding my kitten for 3 weeks now. I have tried chicken meat, heart, liver and feet, she also used to beef meat, heart, and liver. I tried to provide as balanced diet as I can but, for other organ, kelp, oysters, or green/blue lipped mussles, I can’t seem to source it easily here where I lived.. I want to ask is it okay to fill the missing nutrients from those Ingredients with multivitamins like virbac nutri gel, or dermatrix from kala health, which contain several different vitamins and mineral in one product?
A friend has two pit bull mix that are rescues. They have several health issues. The vet has them on a diet of dry food and frozen raw. All pets are different. Happy Purrsday!
I'm currently enrolled in a canine nutrition course at the Companion Animal Science Institute in hopes to get my certification in canine nutrition, but other than that I have just done a ton of research over the past 5 years and am truly passionate about this subject. I also currently work in the veterinary field.
I recently saw sixty formula s (btw no hate love their Huskies ) transition to raw diet video and was confused and questioned my transitioning method because they mentioned never to mix raw with kibble ..... So this video really helped me ... Thank you
I hope someone has the time to help me out. Im a month away from getting my Australian Shepherd puppy home, is it safe for me to give him his kibble (Orijen.) at the obedience/training sessions and walks , but then give him a Raw food diet? For dinner? Like those good quality prepared natural food. Thanks for the time
my cat is very picky about raw and but adore kibble..so i put kibble to the blender and turning it to dust and mix it with raw ( small amounts ) so kibble flavor mix with raw and he loves it.
I used to mix kibble and commercial raw but my dog's poop was runny and although separating them to feed kibble in the morning and raw at night helped a little bit, just switching to raw completely fixed the problem. But my girl is also pretty sensitive.
Thank you for this video!! I think it’s great! What is your background in and is there a place where I can find the research sources that you use? I get this question a lot on my channel. Thanks!
With giant breed puppies, you need to feed them the proper amount so they grow slowly into their size. Rapid growth is bad in these breeds! Omega 3-s can be added to the meal from raw oily fish. Here's some more info on raw feeding puppies: tinyurl.com/y6bhpveh
What about cooked food? We used to boil chicken breast, or grind moose and cook it to make dog food since we are hunters (No spices, nothing added). We would mix these things with his kibble. Koda passed from cancer and our family wants to do everything different for our next dog. Which is why we are doing research.
You definitely can feed cooked meat (with nothing added) to your next dog, although it provides less nutrients. But if you’re feeding wild game, then sure. It is often not recommended to feed dogs raw wild game, unless it has been frozen at a very low temperature for around 3 weeks to a month, and not many people have a freezer that goes low enough. I hope this helped. :)
Question regarding portion size while mixing raw with kibble. Everything I've read indicates my dog should eat 3% of her total body weight raw daily or about cups of kibble daily. If I mix raw with kibble, how much of each should be giving her daily? Should I assume 1.5% of body weight for raw, and 1.5 cups of kibble daily?
For older dogs it's suggested to do a gradual switch because their system might be more sensitive. Heres a transition video if you're interested! ruclips.net/video/6vKC3H7WOcE/видео.html
im still unsure what about wet kitten food with a few days of raw food in between or adding some raw to the bowl as a treat and having the supermarket wet food until i can fully commit for my new kitten? is this ok to digest this way, im nt sure if i wanna go dwn the route of askin the vet.
In my opinion, full raw! But if feeding half and half is what works for you, go ahead. You do need to still make the meal balanced though when feeding 50% raw.
My question is mostly for the peanut gallery... Why mix raw and kibble when kibble is still the worst option to feed? IF I were to feed raw AND kibble (I don't mix them, I feed 100% raw for 3 Labs), I would provide kibble "free choice" for half the day, but my main, structured feeding would be 100% raw.
The experiment mentioning that the kibble entered the colon more quickly than the raw food - is this because there was little to no nutritional value to absorb so it got processed through the body more quickly? Hmmm. I think so.
Thank you so much for these videos. We recently researched raw feeding topic enough to safely transition to raw and our cat isn't really into slow transition, he was all paws for the raw after I found organs he actually likes :D But were a little worried about the feeding times as we go to work and can give raw only in the morning and after work. Usually with canned food we left some kibble during day so cat can crunch on it through the day, but there isn't much information about mixing kibble with raw, actually some people say you shouldn't mix it. We decided to listen to our vet and inner feeling and leave some high quality kibble for him through the day. And this video made me feel so much safer about our decision :) Vet also said that giving kibble can help fill the gaps if the cat doesn't get some vitamins though the raw feeding.
I'm so happy to hear your vet is working with you instead of totally against! If that makes you feel better and your cat is doing well, and not putting on weight from the kibble, go right ahead! I do want to say though, feeding in the morning and the evening is totally fine to do. If you are feeding your cat the recommended amount of food they need to sustain their current weight or goal weight, it doesn't really matter how that meal is split up. Your kitty wont be starving I promise! :p
Hi, thanks to you i am determined to switch my baby to raw! thank you! i have a question which i have not found an answer for. i did all calculations and made a diet for my dog. but when i counted inhave 120 g of protein for her! thats insanly a lit! i watched a video about water in meat. and for a 1k kcal its only 12% but isnt it much anyways?
ive had alot of questions about bacteria and should I feed my dog regular raw or should I buy organic for him? Im not sure I would greatly appreciate it!
I hope this video can help with some of that worry: ruclips.net/video/lC7UAzkM4Qg/видео.html you can buy regular human grade raw meat, but organic, grass fed and finished, and pasture raised will always be a bit better!
Hey ! Thank you for your videos, they really help me understand how to feed raw to my cats. It's full of information yet to the point. Can we mix raw and wet food ? I really want to feed wet to my cat but I am affraid I won't have the budget. But I could afford to give him a mix of wet and raw everyday. Thanks a lot for your insight.
@@mohammedashfaq5546 Hi ! Is your kitten on kibble right now ? If that's the case, then slowly introduice a bit of wet in a separate bowl before giving the kibble. Then slowly increase the amount of wet until he is ok eating 100% cane food. Once he is use to it, add a bit of muscle meat to the wet food. I started with chicken and tried different muscle meats first to see if he was intolerant to something - which is not the case. Then again, u can started making it half wet and half raw. Don't not forget to expose him to liver, organ meat, and bones. If you prefer, u can also add on top of the wet food some kind of raw meat (muscle meat, chicken wing, liver etc.) Now my kitten eats 80% raw and 20% wet food. It has surely improved his health and I think I will slowly give up the wet now. Good luck on your journey !
Oh wait J saw another video so I’m other words I start with white meat cold turkey watch the stool if everything is going well I start introducing like different proteins thanks for the help in the other video
If you want to feed kibble and raw together and want to split the feedings, it doesn't matter what you choose! You can do either/or in the morning/evening.
@@daradinantiaddinnazar4692 at the End of the video she says you can switch it up, kibble in the morning and raw in the evening, just make sure you’re watching your dog and they aren’t having diarrhea
Thanks for the vid! I was just wondering if I were to have a fully kibble based diet for my dog, could I still give it raw eggs in it's food and raw meat treats? Or will it mess with their stomach?
I know you're not depriving your animals in any way, but when you have clips of your animals approaching their food and cut away before they eat, I feel a little like I just had a food dream and woke up before getting to actually eat. XD

I also use green lamb tripe with the raw bones for digestion.

well, you'll never know until it's shows.
Did your dog tell you that? 😂
This is a fantastic video! I wish I was half as smart as you are. I love that you mention ferrets - ferrets are very easy to overlook when it comes to raw feeding discussions

‘Raw in morning, kibble in evening’. But your graphic was opposite. So which is preferable?
I add raw milk or water with a premium kibble for breakfast and a raw meal in the evening keeps them healthy
Awesome!

I would have guess that based on poop. On kibble my dog June pooped soooo much and so often. But on raw less poop less often a d smaller.
Right!!

But were a little worried about the feeding times as we go to work and can give raw only in the morning and after work. Usually with canned food we left some kibble during day so cat can crunch on it through the day, but there isn't much information about mixing kibble with raw, actually some people say you shouldn't mix it.
We decided to listen to our vet and inner feeling and leave some high quality kibble for him through the day. And this video made me feel so much safer about our decision :) Vet also said that giving kibble can help fill the gaps if the cat doesn't get some vitamins though the raw feeding.
I'm so happy to hear your vet is working with you instead of totally against! If that makes you feel better and your cat is doing well, and not putting on weight from the kibble, go right ahead! I do want to say though, feeding in the morning and the evening is totally fine to do. If you are feeding your cat the recommended amount of food they need to sustain their current weight or goal weight, it doesn't really matter how that meal is split up. Your kitty wont be starving I promise! :p
What kibble is the one you’re using?
Hi, thanks to you i am determined to switch my baby to raw! thank you! i have a question which i have not found an answer for. i did all calculations and made a diet for my dog. but when i counted inhave 120 g of protein for her! thats insanly a lit! i watched a video about water in meat. and for a 1k kcal its only 12% but isnt it much anyways?
ive had alot of questions about bacteria and should I feed my dog regular raw or should I buy organic for him? Im not sure I would greatly appreciate it!
I hope this video can help with some of that worry: ruclips.net/video/lC7UAzkM4Qg/видео.html you can buy regular human grade raw meat, but organic, grass fed and finished, and pasture raised will always be a bit better!
is it ok to mix kibble with boiled meat🤷♀️
Hey ! Thank you for your videos, they really help me understand how to feed raw to my cats. It's full of information yet to the point.
Can we mix raw and wet food ? I really want to feed wet to my cat but I am affraid I won't have the budget. But I could afford to give him a mix of wet and raw everyday.
Thanks a lot for your insight.
Thank you! And absolutely wet food is preferred over dry anyway!
Hi fari and Primal Pack, I want to do the exact same as you, Im feeding my kitten wet but want to mix wet n raw, please let me know what to do
@@mohammedashfaq5546 Hi ! Is your kitten on kibble right now ? If that's the case, then slowly introduice a bit of wet in a separate bowl before giving the kibble. Then slowly increase the amount of wet until he is ok eating 100% cane food. Once he is use to it, add a bit of muscle meat to the wet food. I started with chicken and tried different muscle meats first to see if he was intolerant to something - which is not the case. Then again, u can started making it half wet and half raw. Don't not forget to expose him to liver, organ meat, and bones. If you prefer, u can also add on top of the wet food some kind of raw meat (muscle meat, chicken wing, liver etc.)
Now my kitten eats 80% raw and 20% wet food. It has surely improved his health and I think I will slowly give up the wet now.
Good luck on your journey !
So how exactly do I transition, ( I have a mini schnauzer puppy) how did you transition Matsu?
Oh wait J saw another video so I’m other words I start with white meat cold turkey watch the stool if everything is going well I start introducing like different proteins thanks for the help in the other video
Thank you so much omg im so happy right now 🥺🥺🥺
No problem 😊
What brand of wet food do you recommend ?
She has mentioned Tiki Kat before.
So do you suggest kibble in the morning or night if I do separately?
If you want to feed kibble and raw together and want to split the feedings, it doesn't matter what you choose! You can do either/or in the morning/evening.
@@PawsofPrey I feed primal raw but I also want to switch my pup to raw meat too I just can’t figure out are the ones at markets safe?
@@christinak2840 if you live in the US, all raw meat that is sold for human consumption is safe to feed.
@@PawsofPrey thank you!
how many days a week should i feed my cat raw meal? does it need to be everyday?
If you’re on the raw diet yes it should be every day, that would be their food
@@karenorrala4333 can i change it to kibble again after some period of time?
@@daradinantiaddinnazar4692 at the End of the video she says you can switch it up, kibble in the morning and raw in the evening, just make sure you’re watching your dog and they aren’t having diarrhea
@@karenorrala4333 thank you so much karen🤍
Thanks for the vid! I was just wondering if I were to have a fully kibble based diet for my dog, could I still give it raw eggs in it's food and raw meat treats? Or will it mess with their stomach?
Introducing a new food can cause a bit of GI issues at first, so I'd introduce it slowly and in small amounts at first. Totally fine to do though!
@@PawsofPrey Oh okay, thank you!
Thank you so much for this! But what if the meat is boiled/cooked? Is it still dangerous? Again thank you so much 💖
Boiled meat is fine as long as it's unseasoned and not cooked bone. You need to substitute for bone by adding bone meal to the diet.
Hi! Do dogs' saliva contain amylase? :)
I know you're not depriving your animals in any way, but when you have clips of your animals approaching their food and cut away before they eat, I feel a little like I just had a food dream and woke up before getting to actually eat. XD
can you please please make a puppy recipe for a 8 week maltipoo shih tzu puppy
I'm working on a puppy video - hopefully will be finished soon!
