RAW FEEDING MADE EASY — ONE ¼ LB PORTION AT A TIME!

One of the most common questions pet owners ask when considering raw food is, "How much should I actually feed my dog or cat every day?"

It's an important question, and the answer depends on several factors, including your pet's weight, age, activity level and individual nutritional needs.

At Dee Dee's Raw, we believe feeding your pets should be simple and convenient. That's why our frozen raw food comes in approximately ¼ lb portions, making it easier to measure meals without constantly weighing or dividing large blocks of food.

HOW MUCH RAW FOOD SHOULD AN ADULT DOG EAT?

A commonly used starting guideline for healthy adult dogs is approximately 2–3% of their body weight in raw food each day.

For example, a 40 lb adult dog eating 2.5% of its body weight would receive approximately 1 lb of raw food daily.

However, every dog is different. An active dog may need more calories, while a less active or older dog may need fewer. The calorie content of the food also makes a difference.

A SIMPLE DAILY RAW FEEDING GUIDE

Using 2.5% of body weight as a starting example:

10 lb dog — ¼ lb daily (1 portion)

20 lb dog — ½ lb daily (2 portions)

30 lb dog — ¾ lb daily (3 portions)

40 lb dog — 1 lb daily (4 portions)

50 lb dog — 1¼ lb daily (5 portions)

60 lb dog — 1½ lb daily (6 portions)

80 lb dog — 2 lb daily (8 portions)

These amounts are general estimates for adult dogs. Monitor your dog's weight and body condition, and adjust portions as needed.

Many adult dogs do well with their daily food divided into two meals. For example, a 40 lb dog eating 1 lb daily could receive two ¼ lb portions in the morning and two in the evening.

WHAT ABOUT PUPPIES?

Puppies have different nutritional needs because they're still growing and developing.

Their calorie requirements change as they grow, and they need an appropriate balance of essential nutrients, particularly calcium and phosphorus.

Rather than relying on a simple percentage of body weight, puppy feeding amounts should be based on a nutritionally appropriate diet and their individual growth requirements. This is especially important for large-breed puppies.

HOW MUCH RAW FOOD SHOULD A CAT EAT?

Cats have different nutritional requirements from dogs.

For some average-sized adult cats, approximately ¼ lb of raw food daily may be a reasonable starting estimate.

That's approximately one Dee Dee's Raw portion per day, which can be divided into two smaller meals.

However, a cat's actual needs depend on its size, activity level, body condition and the calorie content of the food.

Cats also require specific essential nutrients, including taurine. Any food used as their sole diet must provide complete and balanced nutrition appropriate for their life stage.

HOW LONG WILL A BOX OF RAW FOOD LAST?

Dee Dee's Raw offers convenient 9 lb and 30 lb boxes.

Here are a few examples based on the adult-dog feeding amounts above:

20 lb dog eating ½ lb daily:
9 lb box lasts approximately 18 days.
30 lb box lasts approximately 60 days.

40 lb dog eating 1 lb daily:
9 lb box lasts approximately 9 days.
30 lb box lasts approximately 30 days.

60 lb dog eating 1½ lb daily:
9 lb box lasts approximately 6 days.
30 lb box lasts approximately 20 days.

Actual usage will vary depending on your pet's individual needs.

These examples can help you estimate how much food to order and how often you'll need another delivery.

IT'S NOT JUST HOW MUCH — IT'S ALSO WHAT'S INSIDE!

Feeding the right amount is important, but so is understanding what you're feeding.

At Dee Dee's Raw, we believe in keeping ingredients simple and transparent.

Our selection includes Chicken, Turkey, Beef, Lamb, Tripe and Plain Chicken options.

Several of our blends contain 95% meat ingredients, with the remaining 5% consisting of other ingredients such as vegetables, fruit, eggs and oils, depending on the recipe.

We also offer meat-only options for those who prefer simpler ingredient combinations.

A high meat percentage alone doesn't guarantee complete nutrition, so it's important to consider the nutritional suitability of your pet's overall diet.
