You should aim to achieve a balance of 80% meat 10% bone 10% offal, (5% liver and 5% either kidney, spleen, testicle or brain) fed at between 2-3% of an adult dogs ideal weight, (these are resting ratios, working dogs will need a higher % and more fat) dogs requiring weight gain or weight loss may need different ratio’s but we can help you with this if you contact us. Offal for dogs are secreting organs, so kidney, liver, testicles, etc. Items like heart, lung, and tripe are referred to as offal in a human diet but are classed as meat for a dog. Yes some people do eat bleached tripe ( this isn’t beneficial to dogs though)
Once your dog has transitioned You can choose to feed an 80-10-10 ratio using minces, or balance your dog’s meals yourself, in chunk/ mince form adding bone or offal separately. You do not have to balance daily but can balance your dog’s diet over a week or even two. The choice is yours and the ratios are not set in stone as every dog is different, but Variety is key, and we should aim at feeding 4-5 different proteins nose to tail. If you want to add veg, add on top of daily allowance.
Please remember when preparing any raw meat that hygiene is very important. Wash surfaces with a good anti bacterial cleaner, wash any cloths used after contact with raw meat, wash your hands after touching raw meat, store raw meat separately and in an airtight container in your fridge.
