We have helped thousands of pet owners with the transition! It’s easier than you think. Successfully transitioning to a new raw food diet can take up to 3 weeks because there are significant differences in the digestive process between raw and kibble.
Fast your pet for 12-24 hours and make the switch in 1 day!
After their last kibble meal, fast for 12-24 hours.
Offer 1/2 the serving of raw, wait 15 mins. before offering remaining portion.
Over a period of 5-10 days begin to replace the current dry food with raw.
Start with approximately 25% raw and 75% kibble for the first 2 days.
Add another 25% raw to the bowl for the next 2 days.
By day 5,the bowl should be about 75% raw.
After about a week, your pet should be close to consuming 100% raw.
Chicken, turkey or duck are recommended. Rabbit is also a great starting point, as these proteins are often easier to digest.
Helps support and improve your pet’s digestive health. Highly recommended for pets making the transition to a raw food diet.
Cold food can cause vomiting. Big Country Raw defrosting tray allows you to thaw raw frozen food up to 10x faster than at room temperature!
Helps prevent loose stools or constipation. Thrive Pumpkin Powder is an all natural and effective way to treat common canine digestive upset.
During the first 7 - 14 days, your pet may experience digestive upset including gas, loose stools, mucous in stool, and may vomit yellow or white phlegm.
The enzymes required to break down a raw diet vs. a processed diet are very different. The pancreas has to adapt - adding raw goat milk or a digestive enzyme can make this transition easier.
The amount of bile needed to break down raw food is less because it is 65%-75% moisture. Your pet's stomach will adjust to the amount required.
A raw diet is higher in calories with less volume. Your pet may seem hungrier, but the stomach will adjust and these sensations will be less noticeable in a week or so.
