How to Switch to Raw - HELP!

[sarahk12]

Hi all, so quick summary: my baby turns 1 years old this Sunday! We have changed his kibble several times with no success. He still has: diarrhea, itchy skin, lots of shedding hair and dandruff. The symptoms seem to come and go, but there is no fix! So....I want to move him to a Raw Diet as of TODAY. I live in Italy, and I haven't seen any pre-made/frozen Raw Diet food anywhere, so I want to do it by myself.

I have looked through the forums but I don't see anyone sharing a recipe of exactly how much of what to make for each meal. If this thread already exists, please could you point me in the right direction?

FYI - we are currently feeding him 150g total per day split across 3 meals. Since he is turning 1 years old this weekend, can we switch to just 2 meals a day on Raw?

Thanks for your help!! :w00t:

You can definitely switch to two meals a day by now.

I would recommend that you join a raw feeding Facebook group. They will have several documents in the "files" section to help those who want to do DIY raw, and one that I'm in can even hook you up with a mentor, if you want. If you don't want a mentor, you can still ask questions and such. If you want a recommendation for one, you can PM me. Otherwise, I would just join several, look through their files to get the info you need to start, and just see which one suits your personality/feeding style the best. Good luck!!
