Recommend Supplements for Added Nutrients

The most common way of feeding a prey model raw food diet is called “80/10/10”. This means that 80% of will consist of muscle meat, 10% bone, and 5% liver, and 5% other secreting organs. This method of feeding originated from trying to mimic a predators whole prey diet in the wild. An 80/10/10 may fall short if you’re not feeding a full mixture of various secreting organ and animal parts this may include sea creatures as well as feathers or fur.

  • Magnesium
  • Iodine
  • Vitamin E
  • Vitamin D
  • Omega-3s

Recommend Natural Prey Based Add-ons:

- Zinc: Eggs, Chicken, Turkey, Lamb, Duck, Oysters or Mussels (15mg of zinc per 1000kcal​ per day's feeding)

Sample serving amounts - dehydrated /steamed / boiled:
  •  Small dogs: .5 - 1 oyster 
  •  Medium dogs: 1 -2 oysters
  •  Large dogs: 2 - 3 oysters
    - Manganese: Blue Lipped Mussels, Green Tripe, Fur, Feathers (1.2mg per 1000Kcal per day's feeding). Feeding guideline for blue-lipped mussels:
    • Small dogs: 1-2 mussels
    • Medium dogs: 3-4 mussels
    • Large dogs: 5-6 mussels

        Note: There are two types of vitamin D: Vitamin D3 (Cholecalciferol) & Vitamin D2 (Ergocalciferol) Vitamin D3 is derived from animals and is more absorbable in canines. Whereas, D2 is found in plants so is less effective in dogs.
        - Vitamin E: Beef Liver, Chicken Liver, Lamb, Salmon, Pork (7.5 mg​ per 1000Kcal for healthy adults & puppies).
        - Iodine: Cod, Egg Yolk (incorporating any foods with iodine should be efficient enough as long as you’re not over or under feeding).
