It's awesome that your taking the time to understand nutrition independently gaining your own understanding. Most of the dog nutrition covered in vet schools are funded by the pet food industries that the Vets then sell from their practices. Vets such as Dr Becker on Mercola further their research based on real science & biology. It is important to feed a nutritious balanced diet, many are now available in stores, grain & cereal free the way it should be.
I love your comment "If I wouldn't eat it, my dog's not going to eat it." I wish more people had that attitude. It would be interesting to price out the cost of this food compared to store bought dry food. Dinovite is a great supplement to use if you're making food at home.
At one year old I'd recommend two meals a day, also any diet change should be done slowly. Some dogs have more sensitive stomachs than others. Kibble fed dogs usually have less enzymes and good bacteria to deal with raw healthy, natural foods.
Thankyou - Very impressed! Very easy to follow, ingredients readily available and my dog absolutely loved it! Didn't use the chicken mince this time around due to supply issues but non the less a great recipe. My dog wolfed it down!
Will you be making any more videos? This video *is* 2 years old but i do *see you* still being very active on this channel. So an answer would sure be appreciated
Yeh plus alot less visits to the vet.Down to once a year for bloodwork and rabies every 3rd year thats it (their never sick).No dumping toxic chemicals on them for fleas&ticks.My pets havent had on single flea or tick in 5 years even though their routinely exposed.No anesthesia associated risks with dental cleanings or expense.Only bathed once a year if that no doggie odor.My cats litter box hardly has any smell even if I miss a day or two cleaning.
Excellent video! I have the good thing for all the dog owners: You can easlily make your dog live longer to 8.3 years by adjusting the food they consume.
Hi, thanks for the helpful video. I was wondering if you can mention some guidance about feeding bones since it's a little tricky for adult dogs vs puppies. BTW, I own a 8 week GSD puppy. What would be the best for him?
Hi Ben , made the recipe and my dogs love it , however both my dogs are older I got one German Shepherd x she is more active then the Border Collie x who is over weight and needs to lose weight , so need to know how much to feed them per day I use 60% roo and 40 % beef meat , Thank you
Looks good. I'm just getting into the raw diet. It looks like you're missing a significant amount of calcium that a dog would usually get from animal bones. Maybe bone meal or a side of RMB every day or two?
one egg shell is only approx 750mg of calcium dogs need way more than that for a daily dose, u would have to give u dog about 4 to 5 raw eggs everyday to meet that goal and u shouldnt be giving ur dog raw egg more than 1 to twice a week depending on ur dogs stomach
2- 3% of pups estimated adult body weight broken into 4 meals per day, remember feed an eight week old 4 times a day. adult Rotties generally weigh 42- 55kg so start at 1kg per day, 250g per meal give more if needed. Mince is great as in mimics what the adults would regurgitate for the youngins after a hunt and its easier to digest. If you've just brought puppy home I'd suggest feeding whatever the breeder did, slowly introducing the raw as it can be stressful settling in away from the pack.
I'm starting to make my own dog food now, thanks. Still would love to know more about supplements as no one seems to be able to answer this. I live in the uk so I won't be able to get same products as you
Good call, however we feed the whole egg, not just the whites, the yolk is very rich in B12, B6 & Niacin the whole egg is very nutritious, Moderation is key. It would take a massive amount of eggs to create any deficiency. A, B multi vitamin is great as any excess B is simply eliminated through urine and doesn't create toxicity.
I personally supplement with the minced meal as it binds and mixes better so there is minimal waste and the dog gets it all. It also disguises it better for the fussy eaters. It would be fine mixed with chicken necks though.
You mention that your mixture is used as meal weight and the other half is supplemented by bones. Can you explain the bones you feed and how you feed them? I just picture bones shredding up and chipping and getting caught throughout their digestive track. Also, do you know about how much your mixture cost you make each week? thank you so much!! Great vid
You are correct, depending on the dog and how they break down bones. I grind mine in a heavy duty meat grinder because my dogs don't crush bones properly. Raw bone doesn't splinter like cooked bones though, but they can still be sharp and large if they aren't chewed right.
We could not agree more with your video, which was interesting and well presented, being clear and concise. We had a lot of trouble with bladder stones with our Hannah (a Cairn terrier) but a change of diet to raw seemed to resolve it. For a successful bladder stone diet of raw meat and details of her case history please see - caninebladderstones
Yes sometimes I will make a months supply and freeze them. taking a few out at a time placing them in the refrigerator. Sometimes I'll even pop dogs dinner in the microwave just for 45 seconds to warm it up but not cook it. they seem to love it warm.
What supplement would you recommend for dogs with conjunctivitis pls? My dog had surgery removing his 3rd eyelid as the mass of tissue has grown bigger and will eventually cover his eyeball. But now, his left eye had some growth too. The doctor prescribed steroid eye cream and hopefully it is under control without having to do surgery again, else, another $2.5K is gone. I had already paid $2.5K for removing his 3rd eyelid on the right eye. This excludes X-ray and blood test, etc for $500.
Hey! Old video but it's great. My super slow metabolism dog is 95 lb and only eats 500 lb a day to maintain. I can't imagine Paying double what I do now lol
Hi Ben. I made this recipe for my dog once and he absolutely loved it so I plan on making it again. I'm just wondering how much offal you use in that recipe and where you got your offal from? I live in Queensland, Australia (couldn't tell if you're in aus or NZ). Just because when I went to my local supermarket and also local butchers, they only had livers, hearts etc on their own and did not come mixed together like what you had in the video. What do you suggest if I can't get premixed offal? Also, I have a 16month male Labrador who's moderately active, would 500g per meal suit him? He's 38kg. Many thanks
Gold Coast, QLD at that time. Supermarkets are great for liver, kidneys and heart. Lungs, brains etc you're probably best ringing round some butcher shops. I mince my offal up in a mincer at home. 10% of the dogs diet should consist of offal. Hope this helps.
Remember the melamine debacle in 2007.Sure theres risk with feeding raw diet if not done right, but theres risk also with processed kibble to.Five years and my dogs/cats still going strong on all raw meaty bone and organ diet.All blood work in normal range according to the vet
My 13 year old Staffordshire Bull Terrier has just been diagnosed with lung cancer, and the Vet has not given any suggestions as to if she has months or more. I came across the raw food thing, and have just begun adding it to her normal tin food. Giving half, 144grams of beef, 144 grams of liver, kale and carrots. 2 caps of 1000mg of fish oil, 1 teaspoon of honey, 1 multivit and waiting on reishi mushroom caps. Oh, and two eggs per meal. Am I going down the right road?
I didnt hear any information in the video about how long I could safely refrigerate the mixture of dog food for. Could you please inform about refrigerator and freezer lengths of time? How long does it normally take to thaw a 500 gram bag of this? Do you use warm water baths to thaw or just a quick microwave time? I try to avoid microwaving anything, ever. Thanks for making this video. I have used Better in the Raw but would like to completely make the meals myself.
for a dog that weighs about 100 pounds, that typically is supposed to eat 4 cups of dog food a day. How much should I serve him of a raw diet like this?
Kenneth Ng Tng Loong yes it does they don't need as many veggies and pick the highest protein meat. They need more protein then dogs. Also supplement with l lysine and/ or amino acid complex. Cats need more of those too.
Hello, I have a senior dog with a sensitive stomach. What is your suggestion for the amount to feed per day (he weighs about 40 lbs)? Also, does the type of meat and vegetables matter? He seems to like kale, apples, and carrots. Thanks!
Hi Jessica, Senior dogs should have less fat in their diets, If your dog has a sensitive stomach I would suggest to start off with adding 10% chicken breast to the food you are feeding at the moment and each week slowly increasing the chicken to get your dog's stomach used to the change in diet. as Offal is very rich I would wait until your dog is comfortable with the change of diet before adding it in. wait a month or two before introducing other raw meats by then your dog should have built up enough live enzymes and good bacteria to digest and deal with the nutrients. Like humans eating a stogy crap diet, if we went out and ate full on veges broccoli etc we would also suffer from gas as we wouldn't have the bacteria etc to deal with it. Hope this helps.. I'd stick to leafy greens, spinach or broccoli, maybe some cooked sweet potato if dog is underweight.
If you.love your dog give them best food For your dog they live More longer and healthy there bones More energy and very. Active they can run and jumping good exciseces always
hey Ben this is a really amazing video, im going to be buying a great Pyrenees puppy and i was wondering when should i start it on raw food diet? and is there anything i should be doing before feeding it a raw food diet. any help would be greatly appreciated.
We changed from dried to raw after bladder stones problems and had no problems at all. For description of Hannah's problems and details of her case history please see - caninebladderstones
i have a 8 week rottweiler, and i want to put him on the raw meat diet i did all my research but i still do not know if he is still to young and i dont know how much to feed him since all the videos i have come across is for adult dogs. please respond
Does your ground chicken have bones in it? if not my biggest concern with this is the lack of calcium. You need to add in some bone meal. a few eggs isn't enough calcium. 3 eggs provide the calcium for about 2 days for a 50lb dog. I wouldn't add any more eggs than 3. You should be putting in at a minimum 1 tsp of bonemeal per pound of meat.
Thank you fir sharing your recipe, I believe I'll try it. I have a question and some advice for you. We humans eat Raw Beef and Fish (Carpacio & Sushi) but we don't eat Raw Chicken to avoid Salmonella..., is there no danger in feeding a dog Raw Chicken? Advice, and please do not be offended, this is offered with the best intentions... That big bucket you use looks like aluminum. Aluminum is VERY bad for humans, among other things it contributes to Alzheimer's Disease and Dementia. The vigorous mixing in the bucket with the the metal spatula or burger flipper rubbing on the walls of the bucket shaves aluminum particles off the bucket inner surface and mixes right into the food just like the alfalfa. VERY BAD. It would be much better to use a wooden spoon/spatula in a glass, porcelain or ceramic bowl. At the very least a wooden mixing utensil with the aluminum bucket. You did some mixing in what appeared to be a small stainless steel bowl with presumably a stainless steel spoon. This releases carbon particles into the mixture which also quite bad. The blender blades release the carbon particles also but it is not as bad, a food processor is more likely to release fewer metal particles into the mix. With good intentions, respectfully submitted.
Hi there. I really want to make the switch from commercial food to the BARF diet for my best mate, an Australian cattle dog cross, Cosmo who weighs 20kgs. I'm unsure about how many grams a day to feed him and also if i feed him once a day or twice per day?
+Yigal Zaid thank you! i did actually try to make this for my dog but it was very hard for me - being one of those weird vegetarian types of people lol so instead i bought it already made and frozen at PetBarn :) Cosmo loves it and looks super healthy!:)
this is for anyone i always see people feeding lungs hearts and stuff like that other organs too and even seen ox tail where can you buy that type of stuff i wanna start feeding my dog better food even if its just a little bit of raw food mixed in with his kibble because he already ahs a good kibble
10% of the diet should consist of offal, although heart is considered a muscle be careful not to overfeed it as it is very rich. I add about the same in green vege. ebay has some good deals on supplements as do human health food shops.
It's awesome that your taking the time to understand nutrition independently gaining your own understanding. Most of the dog nutrition covered in vet schools are funded by the pet food industries that the Vets then sell from their practices. Vets such as Dr Becker on Mercola further their research based on real science & biology. It is important to feed a nutritious balanced diet, many are now available in stores, grain & cereal free the way it should be.
Thanks very much, nice to see people taking real interest in their pets health.
How can you calculate how much raw food you should give to your dog in daily basis?
I love your comment "If I wouldn't eat it, my dog's not going to eat it." I wish more people had that attitude. It would be interesting to price out the cost of this food compared to store bought dry food. Dinovite is a great supplement to use if you're making food at home.

Do u still have your dog? Have u noticed any change in your dogs coat or anything from going raw diet?
Thanks so much Stephanie, work is crazy, but seems people are watching so I'll upload and make more for certain.
Awesome - thank you! I made up a batch this weekend and the dog has been DEVOURING it!
aw your dog must love you. That is an incomparably awesome meal as opposed to dry kibbles.

I only use human grade.
Do you have ebay in the UK?
Finally after watching several videos on this subject, someone who knows what they're doing! Good job! I'm assuming there's bone in the mince?
Great video, waiting for the next video
You could have shown us your dog eating. What type of dog are you feeding?

Looks good. I'm just getting into the raw diet. It looks like you're missing a significant amount of calcium that a dog would usually get from animal bones. Maybe bone meal or a side of RMB every day or two?
i was gonna say what about the calcium from bones, need calcium without b12
Diane Malone he put the whole egg in including the egg shells, which contain lots of calcium.
one egg shell is only approx 750mg of calcium dogs need way more than that for a daily dose, u would have to give u dog about 4 to 5 raw eggs everyday to meet that goal and u shouldnt be giving ur dog raw egg more than 1 to twice a week depending on ur dogs stomach
raw bones is where dogs get the best calcium from chicken quaters are perfect not brest or drumsticks
Around 7:10 he mentions he feeds meaty bones as well
Are the oils and supplements you give made for dogs or is there a way to use what humans use?
2- 3% of pups estimated adult body weight broken into 4 meals per day, remember feed an eight week old 4 times a day. adult Rotties generally weigh 42- 55kg so start at 1kg per day, 250g per meal give more if needed.

Hi great vid, instead of all the messing about, can i just feed it all in one go and then not have to worry about the rest of the week???

Thank you very much Ben
