Thanks for your reply. I am worried about starting raw because she will have to be boarded at the vets office for a week while I am gone on vacation and I think I can get them to feed NV, but not raw meat. I will have to ask how they feel on the subject.
I am of course scared of her eating bones, chicken bones in particular, as I have heard all my life to never give a dog chicken bones.
I do want to do what is best for my pet.
I am having a hard time figuring out how much to feed her. She weighs 5 lbs, and I know she need 2-3% of her ideal body weight, so that would be 10-15 ozs, right? Does that include the weight of the bone too? No I see that that is wrong. 15 oz is almost 20% of her body weight- someone hefp me out. Thanks |
