HuskyLucy Posted April 9, 2015 Report Share Posted April 9, 2015 Im looking into switching to feeding our dogs a raw diet however i am stuck to a small budget at the moment. Can anyone give me some advice on how to feed two dogs raw for as cheap as possible and can they be fed the same raw meats everyday or do the meats have to be different? I currently pay about 35-40 pound a month feeding kibble to two dogs. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormy Posted April 9, 2015 Report Share Posted April 9, 2015 I feed both mine ready pre packaged raw. Costs me probably around 60 a month that's for both of them. I get a variety of meats as they need some bone and some bone bone meals and offal. It should be 80 percent meat, 10 percent bone and 10 percent offal spread over the week. I do get mine chicken thighs at times also. I get my meat from manifold valley meats but I pick up from a local supplier to save delivery cost.

Stormy Posted April 9, 2015 Report Share Posted April 9, 2015 As in its minced packaged and frozen comes in 480 gram packs and is all frozen I have a big chest freezer because I always get a months worth. There are so many company's that do ready made raw food Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carly Posted April 9, 2015 Report Share Posted April 9, 2015 I don't feed mine a raw diet (just the odd chicken wing) but my other half used to feed his previous husky on raw and got it from Durham animal feeds, they do deliver i believe but i am not sure how they compare on price?

jmscott Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 · Hidden Hidden I just bought about 200lb at about a dollar a #. It lasts about 4 months. Doesn't include the free stuff we pick up along the way. Oh we also stock up on turkey during the thanksgiving sales. Link to comment
Michelle Sopi Posted April 9, 2015 Report Share Posted April 9, 2015 I feed my 3 raw (including Ollie the Springador) the mince and the chunks and chicken wings - I get this from Jolleys pet store (Ashton-uder-Lyne) as it has more choice that Pets at Home - the make is 'Prize Choice', plus they do the meat blocks too.
