I am on day 5 of feeding my 12 week old yorkie the 90% raw meat/10% whole foods from ANSWERS which is mainly organic dog food. I will do the chicken formula for about 3 months and then introduce beef or something else as well. I also have puppy food from Orejin but he is not so happy about it as he is about the raw food which he gulps down instantly every time.
He is supposed to eat 4% of his body weight which would come out to 2 patties of 1 oz. each daily. I think that is not enough for him because he always ends up eating extra Orejin, which is always available to him, but I've noticed that he only touches it late in the evening. I give him a raw food pattie at 8 AM, the second one at 5 PM. So he eats a few orejins (like 5-6) in between and about 10 of them around 9 PM.
