I recently purchased a French bulldog puppy<\/a> named Blue. He\u2019s full of energy and has a healthy appetite. But when researching the best diet for a French Bulldog<\/em>, I quickly learned that this breed is prone to several health issues\u2014just like many purebred dogs. Doing proper research on your Frenchie\u2019s nutrition is essential.<\/p>\n

Why High-End Kibble Didn’t Work for Us<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Initially, I wanted to find a high-quality kibble that would meet all of Blue\u2019s nutritional needs. I chose Orijen, a premium dog food with impressive ingredients and a high price tag. Despite this, Blue showed signs of digestive discomfort: bloating, diarrhea, and lack of appetite. Even when I left the food out for him, he refused to eat it. That\u2019s when I decided to try something different\u2014cooking his meals myself using fresh, organic meat and vegetables.\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Switching to a Homemade and Raw Diet<\/strong><\/h2>\n

So in blue enjoying his food I did not see any health benefits. I just realize that he was full and happy. Then I started to think what about raw? Because when you cook your food all of the nutritional value is gone is dead it\u2019s cooked out of the food. Raw food which is uncooked has all of the nutritional value in the food it\u2019s alive and it has all of the living enzymes and organisms needed to heal.<\/strong><\/em> That\u2019s a no-brainer. So I switched from kibble which is dead food to Raw food which is alive. In the four months that my French bulldog puppy blue has been raw his health is amazing. He\u2019s very lean intergenic happy solid, shiny coat smaller stools improve digestion better weight management great dental health pink gums white teeth. For dogs who don\u2019t suffer from health issues feeding a top-quality raw diet can enhance energy level behavior and a general good mood in any animal. Just think how do you feel after you eat a good healthy meal?<\/p>\n

\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The truth about Raw…<\/h2>\n

Is this dangerous for your pet? Of course not! It\u2019s their natural diet in the wild<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Since they are not in the wild but in our homes it\u2019s still up to the owners that\u2019s me and you to supply a well balanced Raw meal that will only enhance their bodies and wellbeing the correct way\u00a0raw food goes directly where it\u2019s needed and the body uses it all.<\/p>\n

Do the research. I use all meats and organs some exotic meats too as well as all icky things fishnheads antioxidants pre and probiotics different oils and herbs the list goes on. The fun part for me is making my own raw dog food for my pets. I invested in a commercial meat grinder it weighs about 50 pounds and it does what I needed to do and that’s ground up meat and chicken bones to give to the babies. I really enjoyed creating healthy meals that they enjoy eating that\u2019s nutritious and healing to their bodies.<\/strong> I will be posting videos of how I grind and prepare the foods that I get my animals. All of this can be quite frightening in the beginning but as time goes along it becomes really simple. Well, you\u2019re asking what should dogs be eating a raw diet well your dog needs RAM muscle meet organs fatty tissue and bones.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Now the fun part begins how much raw food do I feed my dog?<\/h2>\n

You start off by writing down your dogs wait for example my French bulldog weighs 40 pounds so you calculate 2 to 3% of that number that would equal to a range of 0.8 to 1.2 pounds of food per day. So i feed blue one and a half pounds of food per day. If the dog weighed more weight it would be more food. OK now we\u2019re in business now that we have determined how much dog food to feed your dog now we must determine your dog’s activity level…<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Is your dog inactive?<\/li>\n
  • Is your dog active?<\/li>\n
  • Is your dog average?<\/li>\n
  • Is your dog a working dog?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Where does your dog fall when it comes to considering activity level but let\u2019s not get too hung up on that. Most dogs fall with the inactive or average categories starting with 2% of their body weight is a good course of action if you believe your dog is more active consider bumping their starting percentage up to 2.5 to 3% of your bodyweight.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
