Jono00801 Posted September 23, 2014 Report Share Posted September 23, 2014 I'm rescuing a husky pup on Saturday and he will be 9 weeks old I want to put him on the best diet possible so I have decided on a raw food and veg diet however I need to know roughly the amount I should give him per day meat wise as all the guides say 400-500 gram day raw meat but that's a adult weight so any help would be great thanks for looking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NOBELHOWLUC49 Posted September 23, 2014 Report Share Posted September 23, 2014 Well done for rescuing. I did not feed Noah and Bella a raw diet so I am unable to advise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sarahjng Posted September 23, 2014 Report Share Posted September 23, 2014 Well done you ! First of all, pictures, pictures, pictures !!!! As for the raw diet, I feed both mine raw and its great, there is a raw thread with loads of information, I just don't know how to link to it, sorry. But when you find it there is a link there to a weight calculator, so that should help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarah Posted September 23, 2014 Report Share Posted September 23, 2014 Hi Welcome to the pack - this thread will have a lot of info for you Copied the below from the thread for eas Its really easy really, all dogs are fed the same, regardless of age, sex and weight. You always start off feeding 2% of the ideal adult weight, the only time this changes is for working sibes, when you feed 3%.So for a female sibe puppy, you work out the amount using an average adult weight, lets say 21Kg. You would work out the 2% of 21Kg.21kg / 100 x 2 = 0.42kgconvert it into grams:0.42kg x 100 = 420gThere you have your daily allowance, split that amount into however many meals you want to feed.

Jono00801 Posted September 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2014 I have looked at that but maths isn't my strong point lol so if someone could advise on where a calculator is so I can use that that would be fab thanks again every dog should get a forever home not just be dumped when the owners get board!
