How To Transition Your Dog & Cat To A Raw Food Diet - Dr. Katie Woodley | Holistic Veterinarian

[@edschulhof6303]

Informative video. When one of my two cats got sick, the vet I used was useless. He didn't even ask about food or diet. I started feeding them raw ground beef. It was all the one cat could eat. There was no transition. A few weeks later, she was fine. Now they eat chicken thigh meat, boiled six minutes and raw ground beef. I make broth from the chicken bones. I use TC Feline with beef liver to balance their meals. Once a week they get a tin of sardines. There has been no more throwing up. No hairballs. No bad odors from the litter boxes.

I hope you are supplementing their diet with iodine and vitamin e and adding taurine lost due to cooking and other organs besides liver

[@user-po3mh4dy9r]

One problem that many people face, is that they never learned how to cook for themselves, much less a pet

You are a breathe of fresh air. Thank you for advocating for natural raw feeding. I pray for a day when everyone wakes up so these poor pets dont have to be sick anymore.

Very informative video. Also, thank you for your excellent downloadable pet food guide - so useful as I transition my fussy cat to real ancestral food. I encourage everyone to have a look at the guide.

My dog, a rescue with poor dental health, lost a lot of teeth. What do about bone supplement?

Hi Dr. Woodley! I am in the process of transitioning my dog (6yr old German Shep) to a raw diet. He has typically only been able to tolerate duck as animal protein. We rescued him and he was over vaccinated before we got him. He has suffered from food, seasonal allergies and yeast since then. We feed him raw free range duck now, but I am nervous about trying other animal proteins because of his allergies . I would love to give him some variety. Any suggestions on how I should go about doing this or what other meats I should try first? Thank you so much for any advise! I love your videos!

Hi Dr. Kate, which brand of taurine do you recommend for a cat? I’m searching and want to make sure I purchase the correct brand and where it’s sourced from etc. thank you in advance.

[@nogames8982]

I've always transitioned my dogs cold turkey. Kibble, one night raw the next morning and never looked back. It took me two weeks to transition. My cats from free fed kibble to twice a day Raw. You can't do the Toughlove or cold turkey method with a cat usually.

[@Queenlaurensky]

It took you two weeks to transition what? Sorry , dogs or cats or just from them feeling better

My dog is a senior and has sensitive stomach, can I still introduce him to raw meat?

I'm sorry that your dog is going through this. Definitely check out our free gut health guide so that you can start figuring out the root cause of why he's sensitive. Here's the link: bit.ly/free-pet-gut-health-guide

I also wanted to share our blog post on tips for sensitive pets to help guide you also: thenaturalpetdoctor.com/tips-for-dogs-with-sensitive-gut-health/ I hope that helps!

Dogs are wild derivatives. Feed them what nature intended and 98% of the problems go away and they thrive. We’ve replaced their natural diet with some hyper processed, inorganic chemical replacement with low quality, high carb ingredients. Meat, fish, organs, bone, tripe, organic grass fed dairy, bone broth, etc. watch your pet thrive. Good luck!

[@kimmy3608]

help, leaky gut. I gave my cat probiotics, and he started throwing up 6 months ago and has not stopped.

[@dalebailey754]

My dog has transitioned, but suddenly, she seems less interested and n her food.

[@Daisy45320]

Makes them more vicious?!? 🤣 People are so silly.
