Transitioning your border collie puppy to raw
Transitioning your border collie puppy to raw. As a follow up to our awesome live Q/A with Big Country Raw, I have spoken with Linda and we have reviewed these recommendations with Julie, there onsite Nutritionist and she has given her blessing as a solid recommendation to get your puppies started on the raw journey.
If you missed our live Q/A, it is now online on our new YouTube Channel where I hope to continue to add presentations that our families will find value in.

Transitioning your border collie puppy to raw:
To enhance your puppy’s diet, we suggest adding an occasional egg and fish oils for omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids. These little additions don’t disrupt the nutritional balance of the meal and provide additional health benefits for your growing pup.
When it comes to portion sizes, aim for around 200g per meal to start. The beauty of Big Country Raw is that it’s balanced by calorie, not measure or weight. This means you can easily adjust the food amount based on your puppy’s needs. If your puppy starts to look a bit chubby or too thin, simply adjust the portion size accordingly.
For puppies, feeding more often is recommended, especially in the early months. Start with 3 feedings a day and by around 5-6 months of age, your puppy may naturally drop a feeding as they become less hungry throughout the day.
You are encouraged to have Big Country Raw create a meal plan for you, you can do that by requesting one on their website, www.bigcountryraw.ca
