Because nature knows best. Our raw food preserves the natural enzymes, vitamins, and nutrients that cooking destroys.
**What do dogs eat in nature?** Although we cannot copy the footprint of mother nature, we can surely mimic what dogs and cats were designed to eat naturally by providing for them a biologically appropriate meal that allows their systems to work effectively. This approach helps build their immune system through a diet that puts very little stress on the body, ultimately protecting them from degenerative diseases and other health complications associated with poor nutrition. We can accomplish this by consuming various fresh foods ourselves — and for our pets. Technically, our domesticated dogs and cats may or may not differ from their wild counterparts in many ways, as science has tried to prove, but their dentition and digestive system have in essence remained unchanged. Domesticating them and feeding what we have been accustomed to eating in no way means that just because their bodies can utilize some of the nutrients from the food being fed, it is the appropriate nutrition for them. Therefore, feeding a species-appropriate raw food should be the first choice of nutrition for cats and dogs. It is also imperative to remember that feeding pets this way is not re-inventing the wheel, but rather returning to how they should have been eating in the first place.

Remove from the freezer for 30 minutes before feeding. Do not keep out of the fridge for longer than 30 minutes during summer months as the food will spoil.
Cats are extremely fussy and most older cats will not take to raw food immediately. If you wish to proceed, we recommend slowly weaning the food being digested differently by the body.
All meat is human grade, but due to the bone content, the food is not suitable for human consumption.
A gradual transition helps your dog's digestive system adjust to raw food.
For healthy pets with strong immune systems. Fast your pet for 24 hours to allow the body to cleanse itself of toxins and make your pet eager for their next day's meal.
Note: Normal detoxification may cause temporary symptoms of vomiting or diarrhea — this will differ from animal to animal.
Strongly recommended for pets with compromised immune systems or sensitivity to dramatic changes in diets.

Similar rules apply for cats when transitioning them to a raw diet. Cats get fixated on the food they are being fed and it will take much longer for them to accept a new diet. Extra patience on the part of the 'pet parent' is vital during this phase, which can take anything from 3 days to 9 months. It is not recommended to fast your cat for more than 12 hours.
Feeding amounts vary depending on several factors unique to your pet.
Feed daily 2.5% of the dog's ideal body mass until you find a good balance.
On average, small dogs require more calories per pound than medium and large breed dogs (with Great Danes being an exception — often require up to 20% more calories than other breeds in their size class).
Young adults often require more calories than middle-aged pets and seniors (there are always exceptions).
The average pet who receives two walks per day will require less calories than your average working dog or competition dog, even if they are the same breed.
Intact pets appear to burn more calories at rest than their altered counterparts.
Puppies are very complicated to feed raw due to their calcium and phosphorus requirements. Doggobone has been approved as balanced for all stages of a dog's life, including puppies.
Goats milk, full cream yogurt, tripe, and some of the balanced meals from other pets can also be fed to puppies.
If your dog is overweight, feed 2% to lose weight. If your dog is underweight, feed 3% to gain weight. Once your dog is at ideal weight, feed 2.5% to maintain a healthy weight.
In winter you might notice your dog needs a little more as now they are burning more fuel for warmth — adjust accordingly.
Using a Body Condition Chart is a fantastic way to see how your pet is doing rather than using solely the number on the scale. Ideally, pets should fall in the 4-5 range on the 9-point scale.
For all pets we suggest keeping a photo diary! Snap a picture of your pet from the side and from the top every single day. We see our pets every single day which makes weight loss or weight gain more difficult to recognize. Taking photographs weekly and reviewing monthly is a habit that will keep you on-top of your pets' body scoring condition — making sure they stay in tip-top shape.
Doggobone recommends a 6-day feeding schedule with a day of fasting on the 7th. Fasting is an age-old practice that has been known to aid digestion and help cleanse the body of toxins. It is not uncommon for animals in the wild to fast.
It is not advisable to fast puppies under the age of 6 months. For those concerned, feed plain yogurt as the alternative to food.
Please note the weight chart above includes treats too. If you give your dogs treats or meaty chews, please factor that into the food allocation that day. Overfeeding your dogs can hurt them.
