I'm going to make him frozen cubes with seasonal raw fruit & veggies, raw egg, & natural unsweented yogurt and probaby a sardine....But 1st we'll start with the chicken. So far no loose stools so it didn't upset his system. . It's about a TBS a day!

Here's more info about raw

ADULT raw fed dogs require approx 2 to 4% of their body weight a day (depending on activity levels, health, etc) to Maintain...

You are going to starve your puppy and not give him a chance to grow and thrive if you are only feeding him 2-4% of his current weight! Growing puppies need up to 10% of their body weight when raw fed in order to grow healthy and strong. Also, be careful of which bones you give at this young age. Personally, I would stick with the small bones of chicken only.
