Great video. I think determining the right kind of RMB and quantity is the trickiest part of raw feeding. I think the type of bone is also dependent on a dog's chewing style. I avoid long narrow bones like feet and necks because one of mine will try to swallow a big chunk even though he is only 10 pounds.
Very true! Chewing style can have a lot to do with the best meaty bones to feed
Thank you for making so many great videos. Your videos are really helping me. I really appreciate you
Thank you! ❤
I've purchased your formulator and looked at your cheat sheet (along with other educational resources!), but weighing out the RMB and % of each still feels daunting to me in terms of formulating my dogs' meals and what's appropriate. Learning as I go and doing the best I can!
Well the formulator calculates the bone percentage for you! For example if you put a chicken wing in your ingredients list and scroll down to the PMR percentages, it will show 54% muscle meat 46% bone
I’m lucky my XL dogs can just crunch away at a chicken quarter. I know smaller dogs can’t always do that.
Yep! Pretty much nothing but the last two could be applied to my dog. Fortunately, only something above a freaking _pork neck_ would even *begin* to show _some_ problems for him.
Those bear rabbit bones that Mutsu had some trouble with would have just been flossing my dog's teeth. However this is some pretty critical information to know for smaller dog owners, it's just kind of funny considering the behemoth I have at home. 😂
I am a cat owner, thank you; I have been making some of these mistakes
BTW, I enjoyed your presentation at the Raw Feeding Summit.
Thank you so much!
great video! my Cane Corso prefers bare bones, but I'm not too worried, he seems to do well with it.
Are raw rabbit spines and ribs safe to feed? I was holding it for my dog and they seemed quite sharp. So sharp, they cut my finger. Concerned about my dog...Thanks
Hi! We live in Australia and have a 9 months female puppy of Golden retriever. She is enthusiastic of raw food and we are still adjusting and learning, the only thing is that I can’t find the percentage of bone/meat in kangaroo tail or basically animals that we have here…do you maybe know a website where I can find this information? Thank you for your videos, they are super informative!
i love your videos Paws of Prey
Great video ! Thanks! :D
how do you know the different amounts of each vitamin required for your pup to be balanced?
I am transitioning my 2 years old toy poodle into a raw diet and on the way I am giving him slightly cooked homemade meals. Last meal prep I added a whole rabbit (bones and all) into the raw puree mix we prepared for him because he is a picky eater. The outcome was a smooth puree with no visible bones, but on some days I still had to slightly cook it for him to eat it. Is that dangerous because it technically has cooked bone particles in it? Or is it okay as long as it's not broken up by my dog after being cooked?
I am so thankful that I came here because I never knew pets could and can fracture their teeth when eating meaty bones
I gave my neighbor chicken paws for her dog that my cats aren't interested in and she's been reading that you have to cut the nails. This article also said not to feed raw or overcooked. I'm slowly transitioning my cats and just introduced her to raw feeding her dog. Can you explain why it's okay to not cut the chicken paw nails?
If they're like huge talons yes, cut them. And of course if you're worried about feeding them in general, go ahead and cut them! I just don't unless they're really long/sharp. And of course they shouldn't be fed cooked in any circumstance!
Dear Paws of Prey,
TL:DR: how do I supplement a raw grind with raw meaty bones without feeding excessive bone to my cats?
I've put my two cats on a raw grind diet for about a year and a half now, since I got them. One of my cats has a lot of gingivitis though and besides whole chicklets im looking into feeding some more bony meats like chicken necks. I can't find any information on how to balance that out with the grind i normally give them and am afraid they'll get too much bone in. Is there a way to combine a grind with meaty bones without causing deficiencies or constipation?
With kind regards, Jochem
Don't feed bare bones? So what do you do if your dog eats all the meat off the bone before eating the bone afterwards?
Does the meat have to be grassfed/organic of we feed them raw? I can see it possible if its cheap from the store
Have you ever feed them live/frozen feeder mice from pet store?
Hi Mariah, I can't find the 2006 NRC Nutrient Requirements for Dogs and Cats online anymore. Do you know where I can find it?
Yes, they are in my cheatsheet! :)
@@PawsofPrey - thank you! But how about the actual document? It had other info besides just the nutrient values
hi, i have a question! in your video posted 2 years ago, you raw-fed your ferrets whole prey (a chick and a mouse/rat). my question is, why not feed your other pets (e.g. your cat) whole prey too? wouldn’t it be nutritionally balanced, and easier for you than sourcing animals from different places? thanks!
hi! I'm in the process of transitioning to raw diet for my girls. the one piece of information I can't find is do we or do you clean any meat before feeding/processing? Also, I think I have to grind my foods up, so will this pose an issue with the bones? thanks for any guidance anyone can provide!
How do I adjust their diet if I’m feeding a prepared, commercial raw diet with 10% ground bone already in the formula? I want to give them raw duck necks but not sure how to adjust their normal food to make it more balanced and not too much calcium
Does your recipe spreadsheet take the bone percentages into account when you add raw meaty bones to the recipe?
It does the math for you, yes!
Dr. Ian Billinghurst said that 60% of the dog’s diet should be RMB. Seems kind of high, no? Is that similar to your numbers on the spreadsheet? Also, do you still feed soaked nuts/seeds and veggies to Matsu?
I suggest about 12% for adults and 17% for puppies (give or take a few) I don't disagree with Dr. B, but when looking at nutrient needs, these percentages are pretty accurate with meeting them. I do believe you can feed a huge range though, and I know many dogs have thrived on a higher intake! It really comes down to the individual. In the wild, they will be intaking bone at different percentages every day depending on their prey!

Been binge watching your videos and I just started homemade raw today after feeding my corgi commercial raw for months. He doesn't seem to like the liver and refuses to eat it (and kidney). I don't want what I bought to go to waste and I understand it's pretty important for the vitamins. Does anyone have any advice to get him to eat it?
He has no problem eating everything else, except maybe the gizzard but i think those pieces were too big and hard to chew so ill cut them up next time
Organ meat should be a very low percentage and need not be in each serving.
Small amounts mixed in with everything else should go unnoticed.
@jeffandrews296 thanks for this! But even when I put in very little he still manages to pick it out haha what I was able to do was grind/blend the meats and that way he had no way of picking it out and so far it has worked!
So what about frames would that count as bare bones?
Usually there's meat attached, so frames are fine!
is there a way to reduce histamines in chicken? i want to feed rmb chicken parts to my dog but he is allergic
Can't imagine what dogs do in the wild
Hunt down small prey😸
Crack their teeth probably
Can you imagine what I do behind closed doors? 😁
You're next........
Can I get kisses from my raw fed dog? I do but is it ok?
Yeah, i mean not immediately after eating... Because they're smeared with meat and it's not pleasant, but personally I don't see the problem... I mean, If when we take them out for a walk they sniff and lick mysterious things and they kiss us without problems, I think it's safe... Well I think so, hahaha. I hope it helps you
I recently got chicken feet for my dog. I let her crunch it a few times but I was to scared to let her swallow it 😣
I understand your worry, but they're great for them to eat raw :)
@@PawsofPrey I appreciate your answer! I'm going to let her go at it this afternoon!
ARNT duck heads 75% tho?
