How do I switch to a raw dog food diet?
There are a few ways to switch your dog to a raw diet including: “cold turkey”, and transition.
Cold Turkey: means you stop feeding kibble, on day 1 and on day two, you feed raw. You can introduce a starve day in between if you like to help clear the dogs system of kibble, starving will not harm your dog, in nature dogs are used to going a day or two without food after an unsuccessful hunt. For the first week, stick with one kind of food. Example: If you try our chicken meal first, stick with it all week to make sure your dog likes it and passes it well, before trying our beef meal. If you have a puppy, switching is the same process. Puppies have not had much history with food preference so they transition easier at this age.Start puppies off with three meals a day rather than two until they are around 6 months old.
Transition: Start with 80 percent dogs current food, 10 percent raw. Each day and reduce the amount of kibble/current food until the bowl is completely raw. This can take anywhere from 2-15 days. Rejection, stool inconsistencies, and vomiting may occur during this process and is normal. If symptoms persist more than 6 days- seek a holistic vet.

I just made the switch to a raw dog food diet and my dog won't eat. What should I do?
This is common with some dogs that have been fed a processed diet for long periods of time. Many times the dog isn’t sure its food, raw food has very little odor compared to kibble which has added flavors. You can introduce the starve method mentioned earlier to clear the system of kibble, starving will not harm your dog, in nature dogs are used to going a day or two without food after an unsuccessful hunt. You can also add green tripe to the meal to entice dogs to eat. Try meal toppers like smelt, feet..and any other fresh treats your dog's loves.
Why are my dog's stools smaller while I am eating raw dog food?
Dogs are capable of metabolizing up to 95% of the ingredients. What’s left over reflects on the size of their stool. This means they receive the complete nutrition they need, rather than unnecessary fillers. Also, a raw diet for dogs means less wastage inside the dog’s digestive system, so the poo comes out firm, small, and with less smell.
Can I chop up vegetables or give them chunks of the vegetable whole?
Yes! Yes! Yes! Vegetables safe for dogs can be fed whole, raw, or cooked. Stick to about 7 %per meal as anything more will be passed to the stool and not digested.
Should I feed my dog Grains?
In our opinion, Grains are not a natural part of a dog’s diet. You will not find carnivores choosing to eat grains in the wild. Dogs do have the ability to digest some grains but try to use more species-appropriate choices.
Why are the color and texture of Totally Raw blends inconsistent from batch to batch?
Color and texture are never indicators of a batch concern or discrepancy. We grind whole animal parts that differ in composition each load we bring in. We may use different parts of muscle meat to fulfill the meat percentages required in the formulation. This can result in different colors of red, or pink depending on if thighs were used versus hearts. Nutritional value is not compromised as many parts of the ruminant animal can be safely fed as a raw diet to provide the ideal 80/10/10 percentage diet. Keep in mind we do not add synthetics, dyes, or preservatives that may assist in consistent batches every production. The synthetics mentioned above would need to be claimed on the ingredient panel and we do not believe they are essential to fresh diets.
Do the patties contain different ingredients than the 2 lb roll?
No, the patties contain the SAME ingredients as the 2 lb roll blends.
Why does is my dogs stool smaller than normal and turn white ?
Raw fed dogs will digest raw pet food and the high meat content, better than they would kibble. This results in absorbing 90 percent of the nutritional availability of the meal. The stool is smaller as less waste is expressed with high nutritional absorption.
In simple terms: Junk diet = large junky poop!
healthy diet = smaller healthier poop !
