How I Meal Prep Raw Food For My Dog (Full Week)

[@heavenmessenger785]

Okay, first off, how do you not have more views?! i’m genuinely shocked, you do such an incredible job and they’re always so informative and visually pleasing. Second, do you not feed fruits and veggies to your dogs? I’ve always seen them incorporated into the raw meals for dogs, not cats, but i thought that was important as unlike cats, dogs are strictly carnivores? thanks!

[@PawsofPrey]

Awh well thank you ❤️ and I do sometimes! Just didn't make a veggie puree this time around. This isn't to balance the diet, but more so to add in a fiber source

[@Ashrafkhan-qx3nl]

All videos of this channel deserve trending 🔥🔥... Plz don't start promotion of dry food in future if any company approach you 👍

[@christinacampbell388]

I’ve recently decided to go carnivore, for the 4 days I’ve stayed away from sugar and carbs; not perfectly! The more meat I ate in each meal gradually I was noticing stuff changing particularly my poop! My dog Buster is starting today on his carnivore diet. I’m so glad I found you! I listened to 3 videos in a row and understand the importance of a balanced meal for our pets. He’s 13 years old, most of his teeth have been pulled, he has arthritis, skin problems and fatty lumps. I’ve done most of his care at home for treatments and prevention using natural remedies. I know that our lives will never be the same. I am so ready to be healthy, and I promised him when he was 8 weeks old that I would always take care of him! The time is now to improve the quality of our lives!!! Thank you for all the awsum information!

Wow this channel is underrated... This is the best meal prep for raw food. Thanks alot!

[@mamasaurusrex5915]

We have a 12 week old cairn terrier, I’ve been binging all things raw feeding and I have to say your videos are the most well done! Accurate information but also enjoyable to watch and edited beautifully. Love the little animations! And your fur babies are precious 💜

[@PawsofPrey]

Thank you!!

[@LY_11]

This is probably the best raw meal prep for pets I've seen so far. I've been using Maev (raw dog food) and have been wondering how I can do this myself. Great video!

[@xbeauxyeux]

7 day prep: 1. Meaty bones: chicken wings 2. Secreting organ meat liver: veal, beef goat or lamb 3. Secreting organ meat: pork kidney (beef kidney has a lot of fat) 4. Muscular organ: chicken hearts, green tripe? or lungs 5. Muscle meats (bulk of the meat): pork chops, chicken thigh, ground beef 6. Salmon, Mackarell, Mussles 7. Kelp, zinc, vitamic E 8. Bonus: non gmo Kefir

Very nice recap!! I'm screenshoting this❤❤ thanks

[@bronzekitty26]

your videos are amazing! I've been giving my dog some basic raw cuts to get her started on the diet switch I'm planning for her and will be doing some blood tests to make sure she's in good health before we go all in. Your videos have given me the confidence to actually try this with my dog so i just want to say thank you!

[@PawsofPrey]

Aww! Thank you for telling me that, I'm so glad I could help!

[@jj3320]

Tysm! I am finally embarking on a full raw personal diet. I’ve been doing Darwin’s but it’s just too pricey. Also you’re the only professional channel I can find showing raw with a small breed dog! (I have pugs 🥰)

[@angeladangela500]

What a great video!! Thank you for making this content. I'm sorry if you already covered this question I'm about to ask: I understand that you prepare seven containers (one for each day of the week). But do you divide each day's container into multiple portions to feed multiple times in the day (i.e.: half of one container for breakfast and the other half for dinner), or do you feed the entirety of each container at one single serving time in the day?

[@mamabear9389]

My dogs both glare at me in anticipation when I prep their food.

[@PawsofPrey]

lol I know that feeling

[@shae8343]

[@maisonlebeck7683]

I've heard to freeze pork before feeding raw to kill any potential parasites. Thoughts?

[@zeppelinl6275]

Wow, at first I'm like ok this can't be that bad right? Then she kept adding, and adding, and adding. That's a little discouraging. Necessary but maybe too time consuming for my daily schedule. Thank you so much for the insightful and fun video!

[@relaxbay5660]

The food that you put away for the week in the containers do you freezer that back as well or ?

[@katsmns519]

Hey! I have a question! I’m starting a raw transition for my malinois, but I was planning to vac seal his meals so it’s easier to store and thaw out, would this still be good? Or would you recommend storing raw in the fridge and using it as you go? I’ve just had bad experiences of trying raw and it going bad from being out for an entire week which leads to me throwing away certain things I don’t freeze in time..

[@comovocepensalhedefine1464]

Your dog's eating better than I am. Congrats

[@tugcesen3108]

Thank you for the video😊. Could you also share how you keep them in fridge or freezer? I am thinking to switch to raw diet for my dog. I am curious that you are preparing them for a week and you freeze them all? To heat them before serve, do you use microwave and how? Thank you in advance

[@psyk0mgnt]

I was wondering the same thing!

[@roekinn]

I wish I could get my miniature pinscher/staffy mix to eat raw. He liked it at 4 months old and now literally gags if he tries a bite of raw ANYTHING. He hates the texture. Refuses to eat bones. Soooo we partially cook the meat. Has not been an easy road by any means. We've not been able to afford or get access to organ meats consistently so we've been forced to only feed alternating muscle meats with a veggie and a Meal Mix packet from Dr. Mercola. Trying to expand the nutrition here. You're information is so thorough and well studied. Just feel truly overwhelming.Not to mention the cost is far, far beyond what is affordable for us in "clean" meats. Now that pork are injected with mrna whackzines ( no thanks), it's more important than ever to be mindful of how the meat is raised and if it's injected with anything. Got to do our best, but I know it isn't good enough..

[@rigi2007]

My min pin and pitty ❤️ chicken bones. Just started the raw diet and it took about 10 days to convert. Keep trying. I know for the hearts and gizzards I cut then down a little for the mini

[@ModestMountainBiker]

Awesome channel! Thanks for sharing!

[@Naqeeb2002]

Hi, I have a quick question, for the spreadsheet you made can you please have it tell us when we go over the maximum allowance. This is just as important as under balancing and defeats the purpose of the spreadsheet if we have to figure the max ourselves. Btw your videos are amazing and have helped me so much with balancing my pets raw food!

[@PawsofPrey]

Yes, it does tell you that! But the safer upper limits for most nutrients are all quite high, so you're most likely not going to hit a dangerously high intake unless you're supplementing with synthetic nutrients (or just feeding a crazy amount of something). Regardless, you should always try to stay in your pet's daily range as much as possible. Nutrients like protein, fat, sodium, and vitamin A will often appear much higher, but that's fine as long as it's not an astronomical amount.

[@Naqeeb2002]

@@PawsofPrey oh, i didn’t realise it shows when over the max! That’s awesome! Thank you for replying!

[@anonperson3972]

I have committed to raw feeding my dog. She doesn't like tinned food and won't go near kibble, but she has always loved proper meat and organs. I measured her first set of meals yesterday using what was available at the supermarket. Chicken legs, ground beef, sardines and liver mainly (they were out of kidney. I have ordered a BARF supplement that fills the gaps with iodine and manganese, etc. And for the next prep and going to the butcher abbatior where we get our meat a couple of times a year. They do ground organ meat for dogs really cheap. This consists of the tripe, intestine, liver, kidney, brain, heart etc. and will form the base (with added chicken heads, wings or drumsticks for bone).

[@frenchustube]

Have a question. After you do the meal prep for the whole week, do you put back the containers into the freezer and use them as you go?

I'm new to raw feeding and I usually prep bigger containers with 3 days worth of meals. Then I freeze everything and thaw one container at a time which I will have in the fridge for three days and I will take out what I need for each meal. I started doing it because you can keep the meat in the fridge for 3 days but I'm always a bit worried that it won't be so fresh on day 3. Is it ok to do it that way or should I do daily containers and thaw one each day? Also thank you for your videos! I discovered them when I started raw feeding and they helped a lot!

[@HeyNelly13]

Also I was wondering if there is a specific reason to why you buy the meats from different places instead of ordering everything you need online and having it delivered? Is it because of quality or price or because you enjoy the shopping?

I recently have gone carnivore myself, it has changed my life. I have emerged myself into the carnivore eating groups and learned that organ meat is not necessary for everyday consumption. Once a week is fine for humans and dogs. It’s actually filled with so much nutrients you can over do it. Also in the wild they would have not been getting organ meat everyday either. I love your videos but it’s a lot simpler to feed your dog raw meat than this.

Great meal prep. Unfortunately, I don't live in a metropolitan area, so most of those ingredients (so far) are not available to me. We only have 2 *very* small asian stores and they don't carry the wide variety you seem to be able to find. At my grocery store I'm able to find chicken liver, gizzards and feet and beef liver. I am in contact with a local person that raises chickens and he will sell me hearts and livers (at $4 lb) and feet ($3 lb). He keeps the necks with the bird for cooking so those are unavailable. I still need to make contact with some butchers, and maybe I'll be able to source some things there. ~ I did want to ask one question since I have not seen anyone address it, can I give my senior 60 lb GSD one drop of Lugol's 2% Iodine Solution since I take that myself and have it available? I'd rather use what I have than buy a Kelp supplement. Thank you!
