Hints, tips, tricks – What to expect when transitioning your pet to the Naturally Wild raw food diet

First things first – transitioning your beloved furry friend to a new diet does not happen overnight, it is a process that allows for a gentle change that will ease their digestive systems into their new and improved diet. 

Keep in mind – once your pet begins the transition, some weight loss is to be expected, this is due to their bodies releasing retained water. 

Trial and error – Just like us, our pets’ bodies are all built differently. There is no one set rule for your pets’ new diet, feeding them a raw diet can be a bit of trial and error. If you notice them gaining weight, simply reduce their intake and vice versa if they are losing weight, increase their intake.

Let’s look at the timeline**

Ideally, transitioning your dog should take 1 – 2 weeks. Be sure to monitor their stools throughout this process, these are the biggest indicator of how your pets’ digestive system is adapting to the change.

Day 1

For the first day, Naturally Wild raw food should be introduced as a treat throughout the day, otherwise remaining on their “normal” diet.

Day 2 - 4

The amount of raw food treats should be gradually increased over each day. It is important to observe the condition of their stools to check they are normal, if that is not the case then be sure to reduce their portion sizes of Naturally Wild raw food for a few days, this will help support their digestive systems through this change.

Day 5

If stools are normal at this stage, replace their evening meal with their new Naturally Wild raw food. If your dog is only fed once a day, consider the option of splitting their meal into halves, with their original food in the mornings and the Naturally Wild raw food in the evening. If their stools continue to be consistent, then continue replacing their night-time feeds with raw food for the next few days.

After 1 Week

If everything is still looking good in the stools department, then you can take the leap and completely replace their old food with their new and improved raw food Naturally Wild diet! Ensure you carry on monitoring their stools for the next week to be certain that your pet has adjusted to their new diet. If they develop diarrhoea at any time, then we recommend you go back to replacing one meal for a few more days to allow their stomach to settle down, before entirely replacing their diet with raw food. 

Follow the feeding guide and recommendations to support your success while transitioning to the Naturally Wild raw feeding diet for your pet.
