I've been feeding raw for a few yrs now though when I travel I take Stella & Chewy's dehydrated along with Great life kibble and I take frozen primal or instinct raw food in a cooler .
I breed as well but I wean the pups with kibble so I can help the transition easier for the owners. If I keep a pup back for myself I start the raw as soon as possible with minced chicken or turkey.
Since you are wanting to feed both, my opinion would be to keep the pup on kibble until it's 3 months old. Then start the raw either in the morning or evening which ever is easier on you. You don't want to mess with a pups digestive system so young, either raw or kibble but one or the other for now. Many many pet owners and breeders make the transition to raw cold turkey, meaning right off the bat and not messing with anything other than raw food and do very well. It would be a good idea too to get the pup started on probiotics and enzyms..... |
