A basic raw feeding ratio typically follows the 80:10:10, mimicking the “Prey Model”:
• 80% muscle meat
• 10% organs
• 10% raw meaty bones
Muscle meat is easy to identify—it includes boneless cuts, raw animal fat, tongue, and connective tissue. Raw meaty bones are also straightforward.
But what about organs? Are all offals considered organs in raw feeding? Not exactly.
Certain organs, like the heart, gizzards, lungs, and tripe, are actually muscular organs and are fed as muscle meat. These provide essential protein for our best friends.
Secreting organs, on the other hand—such as liver, eyeballs, spleen, kidneys, brain, and testicles—are highly nutrient-dense.
Since they make up 10% of the diet, I usually feed a mix of 5% liver and 5% other secreting organs to make sure that my dogs get the full range of nutrients they need to thrive.
** Their meals will be balanced over time. These pictures might not show a fully balanced raw meal. Please do your own research before feeding your pup a raw diet. **
** Not a dog nutritionist or expert—just a dog mom doing her best to provide her pups with proper nutrition. **
