Fresh meat contains highly digestible nutrients and a significant biological value. The dog energy level is improved due to the proper digestion of raw ingredients. Stools will likely be smaller and firmer, since fresh and unprocessed food is far better absorbed by their organism. Hence, discharges tend to be decreased.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Even though this may involve a certain amount of time and energy (especially if you\u2019re preparing portions for several weeks), this fresh food diet offers you more freedom (compared to commercial premade formulas). But don\u2019t you worry, they are simpler to prepare than you think!<\/p>\n

Here is the list of ingredients that we can find in certain fresh dog diets. However, you must know that most homemade rations often lead to nutritional deficiencies, namely in terms of vitamin D, vitamin E, choline, zinc, copper, manganese, and more. Hence, it is essential to add supplements, such as the\u00a0Karbur dog powder supplement<\/strong>, that contains all the essential nutrients, vitamins, and minerals, and developed to meet the specific needs of each dog life stage and correct the deficiencies often found in\u00a0 homemade dog rations.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” background_image=”https:\/\/www.karburnation.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/cru2-scaled_carre.png” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_divider show_divider=”off” _builder_version=”4.16″ height=”400px” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_divider][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ custom_padding_last_edited=”on|phone” _builder_version=”4.17.3″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding_tablet=”” custom_padding_phone=”0px||0px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” header_2_font=”|700|||||||” header_2_text_align=”center” custom_margin_tablet=”” custom_margin_phone=”60px||||false|false” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|phone” custom_padding=”||2px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

We recommend you to feed your puppy twice a day (morning & night) (even three times a day, if you\u2019re in the position to do so) until your puppy is at least 6 months old. By doing so, it will protect them as much as possible from any episode of hypoglycemia.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Should your dog have a sensitive digestive system, you may fast them for about 12 hours before introducing the new diet.<\/p>\n

Before initiating the transition, we recommend you to book an appointment with your vet to check on your dog\u2019s health. Furthermore, puppies (regardless of their age) should not fast more than 12 hours.<\/p>\n

We recommend first trying an easily digestible protein, such as chicken, turkey, or duck, and slightly cooking it (if possible). After a few days, you can slowly introduce raw food (if you wish) until the transition process is completed (which normally lasts 7-10 days). Then, you can include other types of meat. Otherwise, your dog may remain on a cooked-meat homemade dog diet, if you prefer.<\/p>\n

When introduced to fresh food, some dogs may go through a transition phase and experience certain symptoms, especially for the dogs with a sensitive digestive system or that were previously fed with\u00a0 commercial food. Puppies and younger dogs generally adapt more easily to dietary changes.[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”46px|||||” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n
