WreckitWhippet Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 I've raised a few Stafford litters and beyond on raw. Keep it simple, which is a variety of red and white meats on consumable bone. Chicken wings, necks, frames, turkey necks and wing tips, rabbit, roo tails, duck, lamb, beef. Alternate between the meats and a little offal. You can buy raw salmon heads and the smaller oily fish at the supermarkets and add some once or twice a week. Keep the veg to a minimum. If you want to feed fruit and veg content, carrot and apple peels are great or turf a little veg off your kitchen bench as you are preparing dinner. I wouldn't bother with a feeding guide for amounts. For a 9 week old SBT two or three chicken wings depending on the size will constitute a meal. Judge the pup by its condition. You will be adjusting the amounts you feed as the pup has growth spurts. Here's a litter enjoying their wings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have done quite a lot of research and I'm fairly confident in making the switch, I think I'm just overestimating it and second guessing myself. Thanks for the assurance, i'll start off easy and continue the research as he develops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WreckitWhippet Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 My only other tip is to avoid hard bone, weight bearing bone is the quick way to wear down teeth and also fracture them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
