Hi thanks for watching! You can switch around the meats and the carbs or veg, some dogs have allergies to chicken, so beef could work, although they cost more
I feed a Medium Sized, Mini Bull Terrier for around .40 cents a Day, including the Bones/Chicken Necks... Just added a Frenchie Pup and have started successfully introducing Raw, I estimate she will cost around 10 - 15 cents a Day... I also use a specialised Dry Vegetable/Seed/Legume/Pro-Biotic Feed Mix designed to supplement Raw Feeding, that is soaked in Boiling Water left to cool over 24 Hours to release the micronutrients. The supplementary micronutrients are digested while the rest is just "Roughage" & Fibre that is passed naturally. *Animal Husbandry Bonus:* The supplementary Vegetable & Seed Mix creates a very "Neat" Toileting Routine, with stools that contain a 50-70% "Roughage" mix of Seeds & Fibre which is a highly valued food source for various Birds, who if left to their own devices make very light work of removing all the valuable seeds & plant matter in record time leaving only a few "crumbs" of remaining Dog Turd to remove from the Grass or Garden, while cutting down the volume of waste quite substantially & of course the necessary Husbandry labour involved in the chore of Toileting too ☺️
I have no intention of promoting any specific "Brand" here, but wanted to refer to the supplementary Vegetable & Seed Mix I use for general information about the additional food types to Meat, Eggs, Bones & Organs that are included in feeding a Balanced Raw Diet... The Pre-Prepared Mix is produced by an Australian business called "Vets All Natural" - developed, as it implies by a Working Vet with the intention of providing easy access to supplementary nutrients which can be often missed by new Raw Feeding "Pet Chef" Owners or those with limited access to whole carcasses such as Rabbit/Chicken/Fish from hunting expeditions or by buying meat from hunters (Varieties of Organs, Furs, Feathers, Scales, Raw Bones, Fermented Vegetables, Fruits, Grains or Seeds from Stomach, Tendons, etc) Checking out the list of ingredients may also help to inform a new Raw Feeding Menu for some people who may want to double check they're meeting Nutritional requirements or for those who may want to create their own Raw Diet supplementary Vegetable mix...
Hello from Dallas Tx. Love your videos. Do you enjoy caring for your dogs? You do so much for them. Seems like a lot of work. Thoughts on the time it takes to care for them? Please do a video on this.
Haha before I start I dread the grooming process, but once I set aside time and start on them, it is quite enjoyable to get through the whole process, and follow that up by cleaning the house
She snorts a lot and is a loud breather! Look into nostril/palette surgery for her breathing... it will make her have such a better quality of life. This was not your fault, it's 100% on whenever the breeders were. Poor girl, thanks for at least feeding her well. Also you need some organs in her meals like chicken liver, and give her a fish oil (omega-3) supplement every day!
Loved your video. You go the extra mile for your pet which is admirable 🤙🏻.Isn’t it unsafe to feed raw eggs? I’ve asked vets before they say some times is okay but regular intake will hurt the dog
Thanks! So far I haven’t heard that it’s unsafe, just got to deworm them regularly that’s all. Currently I’ve switched them to beef diet instead because Bella is allergic to chicken =/
@@BellaOliFrenchie how can you tell if they are allergic? I have just got my first frenchie and don’t know what to feed a puppy, I have pit bull and a Gsd
Loved the cost breakdown but you didn’t compare that to feeding them store bough high quality pet food. I wonder how much is the difference in cost. Good job. Excellent video.
Hi! For me it's cheaper. I have a small dog (4,5 kg) and when I fed my dog kibble it cost me about 600 czk (around 29 USD) a month and now feeding raw costs me approx. 1100 czk (51 USD) for 2 months so it's definitely cheaper. And it isn't the cheapest I could get. It includes beef (meat, organs), rabbit (meat, bones), horse meat, lamb meat (+green tripes), salmon, sardines, chicken (organs, bones, meat), turkey (meat+bones), duck meat, game, pork (meat, organs) and quail meat. Plus plenty of veggies and fruits (pumpkin, apples, sweet potatoes, carrots, bananas, salads, spinach, cucumbers, beetroot, cabbage etc.
@@TigerRobBGT i prep myself. And I source mostly from specialized raw feeding shops or butchers - they would rather sell me the scraps for cheap than throw them away.

For the first 6-9 months of their lives, their breeder fed them a mixture of kibbles and raw. During their quarantine after importing, they were on a kibble diet for 30 days, so after I got them, I slowly introduced minced meat back into their diets. One of my frenchies loved it, the other was resistant to the meat initially, but after a few days they eat the meat first haha
I would like to start feeding my frenchie raw food. Do I need to start her off slow or can I just give her raw? Curious if it will mess with her stomach..
Yup everyday is fine, I mix the protein up by alternating between chicken and beef, can also switch their carbs around with broccoli etc. Feeding them raw gives you the control over what they eat, eg leaner protein, more protein, vitamins etc. Sometimes it is difficult to tell what are in kibbles. I started their raw diet because they refused to eat their kibbles, and were getting skinny, so I gave them raw and they began eating more. But as of today, they started to eat kibbles too, so I am feeding a mixture of kibbles with raw, 50-50 every meal
They are pretty small, likely can’t eat food this solid. I would suggest mashing the food up, make a paste, and also supplementing it with some goat milk powder
Hi, what formula do I use for feeding a puppy that has not reached full weight? We are picking up puppy in 3 weeks and he will weigh 3-5 pounds. HELP!!! love your videos
I’m sorry can’t help you here, haven’t got the experience with a small pup, got mine and she was already almost full grown at 8 months old. I know Bella’s breeder used to feed her a mix of goat milk, kibbles, and lamb
I feed my Frenchie's raw food due to their allergies. So I pretty much didn't have a choice. Since it's also much cheaper than no grain and wheat dog food. :)
What raw food do you give your Frenchie I have a Frenchie who constantly scratches I’m guessing food allergies because we’ve ran through multiple foods and nothing has worked
I feed them chicken leg quarters with no skin. Steamed Peas and carrots, Broccoli and Sweet potatoes. Chicken liver. Then, I give them dog vitamins and supplements. Zero treats. Food prep for 4 French bulldogs is a chore. I spend much less than this video does. Since I buy mine in bulk. I only feed my frenchie the eggs every other day if not every after 2 days. And please wash the eggs before serving with their food.
you should cut down the meat and add organs, put liver, brain, kidney, spleen, heart, gizzard, lung and pancreas or simply use offal and tripe would be much much better than full muscle meat. variety always better.
