Fussy Dogs
Some dogs are difficult to please. Don't worry — here are our proven tips to help even the pickiest eaters make the switch to raw.
My Dog is Fussy
Some dogs are difficult to please and will take some time to adjust to a new raw diet. Don't worry, your dog is not the only one. We have come across many picky ones and successfully helped their owners make the switch.
Even for those dogs who have successfully transitioned to raw, sometimes they stop eating after a few months. We noticed this especially in dogs who have been fed kibble their entire life.
We compiled a list of tips that we hope will help your dog make the switch and boost his appetite.
Tips to Boost Your Dog's Appetite
Try one or more of these appetite boosters to help your fussy dog enjoy their raw food.
Add Bone Broth
Add bone broth to make a soupy texture your dog can't resist. Raw Cut RC Bone Broth is a great choice and packed with nutrients.
Sardine in Olive Oil
Sardine in olive oil can do the trick. Mix a small sardine with the food and pour some of the oil into the mix — irresistible for most dogs.
Warm the Food Slightly
Using a hot pan, fry the food using water for a maximum of 10 seconds and serve. Do not over-fry — this will destroy the food's natural enzymes.
Chia Seeds Pudding
Top the food with chia seeds pudding. Mix 80ml goat milk, 20ml yoghurt, 30g organic chia seeds and coconut flour. The pudding should coat the food so they cannot eat around it.
Add a Raw Egg or Fish Oil
Add a raw egg or organic fish oil to the food. Both are natural appetite boosters and packed with nutrients your dog needs.
No Snacks Between Meals
Don't feed your dog snacks or treats between meals. Once the dog finishes the meal, reward with a treat. Hunger is the best appetite booster.
