| Q about Nature Variety RAW I just switched my 3 y/o yorkie girl to N.V. Raw chicken. In the past shes just ate dry food like Wellness and Orijen. Every time it was time to eat she would smell the food and walk away only really ate it because she knew there was nothing else coming. Today was her first feeding I gave her 1 medallion and she scarfed it down-shes loves it!! This was totally missing from her diet- I could tell shes excited for this change as I am too! My question is do you totally eliminate dry food? I thought kibble was good for keeping their teeth strong? My girl is 6 lbs does 2 medallions a day sound right? Its says on the bag 4-5 medallions for a 10 lbs dog. Thanks all!

| If you go on the NV website it has a calculator and you can punch in your dogs info and they tell you how much to feed. My Zoe is 6lbs and I think it told me 3 medallions a day but she might have been a little lighter then. Now I sorta go by that but also about what their weight is and if I want them to gain or lose. |

Izzy weighs 7 lbs... I'm going to keep her on dry kibble as well so NV recommends for her weight that she gets 1.5 Medallion and 1/4 cup dry kibble... Hope this helps
