How to transition your dog or cat to a raw food diet

We are so excited you want to transition your pet to a raw food diet. There are so many benefits to raw feeding. The first question customers ask is, "how do I make this transition to a new type of food for my pet?" While all the raw foods we provide are ideal for your pet, any sudden changes in food can disrupt your pet's digestive system. A gradual change in foods over 10 days is best because it allows your animal's system time to adjust comfortably without getting upset.
