Topic Dog Boards / Feeding / Weaning puppy off raw food

Hi All,

Im looking for some advice on how to best wean our new puppy off raw food. I dont really want to get into a debate around the benefits of raw food etc, Its just personal preference.

Thanks

Sharonmarie

For me id make a complete switch once your pup has settled into your new home. Whether going from kibble to raw or the other way around i don't agree with mixing the 2 as they digest at different rates, again personal opinion as some mix the 2 all the time.
Straight switch is the way to go and make sure its onto a good quality kibble which suits the breed and age of the pup.

I would rather replace one meal with the kibble of your choice and see how it goes. Your puppy may have only experienced raw and I suspect a quicker change to kibble might cause digestive issues.
  Some breeders would feed a combination of raw at some meals and other things at other meals, We’ve  never had a problem doing this.
