A person is spreading that raw food is DANGEROUS. Nobody is letting spred the LIE that raw is dangerous. I fed my dog Royal canin at first. Just after a week after that he had lethergic, vommited, was sensitive to cetain types of food and at last he fell down sick, feeding raw was the best thing to do just the next day of feeding raw he is always in the mood to play, b'cause of you my dog is the most happiest dog in the world
I've been binge-watching your videos! Super clear and informative. I also really enjoy the quality of production that goes into your videos! 💕💕
Aw I'm glad you're enjoying them! Thank you!!!
You have the best information on TH-cam thankyou so much.@@PawsofPrey
I finally found a store in my town that sells raw chicken feet! Gave one to my dog and he loved it. I don't currently have the resources to feed raw (currently enhancing kibble with a rotation of egg, fresh cooked ground meat, and oily fish) and because I'm vegan I just never have any animal bones in the house. Thrilled to be able to add raw meaty bone to his diet every few days!
don't cook the meat
🙌 Question: did you freeze the chicken feet for a period of time before feeding?
I’ve been feeding our dogs raw meat/bones since 2006. I’d suggest asking on your fb page or look for a raw feeding group near you. A woman in my neighbourhood makes & sells raw pet food, feet/necks, fish etc
Great information!!
I subscribed after watching this video. Very informative! Thank you

Love your channel. We have 5 cats and 1 dog. Would love to try giving them some raw to try out. Was wondering if chicken thigh or drumstick bones would be safe for cats and medium sized dog?
Your video quality is top notch!
Glad you think so! :)
Good video
Awesome and to the point! Excited to start my two littles on a homemade raw diet.
Yay! You got this!
Thank you!
You're welcome!
thank you very much!
Absolutely!
I have been a raw feeder for over 20 years and I just wanted to say that you do a really great job of your videos! They are very clear and super informative. Well done!!
Thank you so much!
I gave my dog a raw turkey wing and today she vomited and had blood in her diarrhea. I’m not sure what happened but I’m afraid of spending 2k on a vet visit if something goes wrong. She’s been eating raw chicken drum sticks with no problem but I don’t know what went wrong this time.
@@sandracastellanos921. It’s hard to say. Maybe she didn’t chew the bone good enough and she punctured her stomach lining, or maybe she just doesn’t tolerate the new meat. If it doesn’t clear up within a couple of days, I’d go see a vet. My dog is a 20 pound dog, so my meaty bones will be small bones. I plan on starting out on duck and chicken feet, and some little wings and drumettes.
I've been house/dog sitting. And would like to make dog bone treats for him. I realize you specialize in raw meals but what would you suggest? Love your channel ❤.
Awesome Video! Any ideas on how to ground up dense bones like beef bones? Was thinking of using my meat grinder but scared it'll break the machine... Thanks
if you have not solved your problem yet - your butcher can sell you ground bone meal for very cheap.
Your videos have been so helpful. My 8 year old pit bull currently eats a mix of Primal raw products plus high quality canned food or dehydrated food, but I want to transition her to a raw food that looks more along these lines. I’m finding some difficulties, however, because of her allergies. We can’t have any poultry, and beef needs to be feed in moderation otherwise her stomach gets upset. She does best with lamb and rabbit and fish, but these are not as easy (or inexpensive) as poultry products. I’m still hoping I’ll be able to work this out for her though!
How’s it going with your pit? I’m just starting my 6 year old blue nose on this and am curious how you handled the allergies. She has some allergies too but I only noticed with cooked chicken & pork. Haven’t tried raw yet.
Hi, what do you think of giving deer's antler as a chew?
Love the content! On chicken feet: is it advised to freeze them for a period of time before feeding?
Is it ok to freeze the chicken wings thaw out and give to a dog? Does it make a difference ?
Hi, do you think we can mix cooked meat and raw bones together?
Um can you publish a book please your explanation of things are easier to follow
What is the dosage for wheat grass powder for a 10 lbs dog, i wanted to supplement wheat grass powder since i dont have oysters and lipped mussels available in my country
My cat seems to have a lot of trouble trying to eat bones like chicken neck, any tips on how to help them? I was afraid of chopping it up into smaller sizes because he seems to just swallow whole when it’s small instead if chewing.
Keep up the good work! Like it ❤️
Thank you! Will do!
are antlers a good receeational chews?
My dog loves pig trotters, frozen to make them last a bit longer! He eats every part.
love you content! just a heads up 1:57 spelling error :)
LOL, thanks 🤦🏻♀️
Sometimes it's best not to comment like you did. I'd hate to see the mistakes you make.
Your....you made an error.
Thanks for the video! My dogs love raw chicken feet.
Just started getting my puppy on the raw diet. So far 1 chicken foot a day while maintaining his regular kibble diet. Soon I’ll start throwing in more muscle meat and less kibble.
What books do you recommend to study all these information?? Thank you for the video!
Give your dog a bone is a great one
Google
Definitely google instead of books... Some books are awesome! The problem is, once they're printed and sold, that's it! The info can't be changed / updated like it can be online.. with all the new research going on with animal diets these days, things are ALWAYS changing.
I want to start my own raw company any pointers or direction to sharpen my knowlege
Chicken feet means toes and the shank? Some videos only show using the toes. Some also include the shank. Which is which? Need help for my dogs safety.
What about freeze dried raw? Is that safe for dogs to eat, like freeze dried raw duck necks that I found on amazon?
My 4 and 6 pound dogs eat lamb chop bones that I grind and smash myself with the meat about once to twice a week with breakfast. To my knowledge it's safe for them and I've never had any issues of course the bones are chopped into very small pieces for them.
Looking at feeding my dog RMBs for the teeth cleaning benefit. They are currently fed mainly on a 80% meat kibble (Eden Holistic) as sadly we can't feed raw right now so this was the next best option.
Would it be safe to feed bones while still feeding this kibble?
That's exactly what I am planning to do too, but it's kinda difficult to find that info
I fed my two months old kitten chicken raw legs, and my shepherd dog raw turkey legs when he was 5 months old
I'm new here and the content is high quality and amazing! I have a question, can I start raw feeding for my 3 month old beagle or should I wait longer and how long?
Thank you!! If you have the ability to provide your pup with a balanced meal daily, absolutely! If not, I'd suggest feeding a balanced commercial raw. If you can't do that, do the best you can with what you have. Any dog can be transitioned at any age after being weaned from their mother's milk.
@@PawsofPrey hi! Do you know of any good balanced commercial raw blends for ferrets? Also would I have to switch between the commercial raw mixes, or would I just feed one? Also, would I feed it in the morning and night, or just keep their bowl filled? Thanks so much! ❤️
@@ady7695 hi! Hare Today has some great blends as well as Raw Feeding Miami, Darwin's, and We Feed Raw. It's always good to swap proteins to give them variety! If your ferrets are healthy you can feed morning and evening, but it's also ok to leave a decent amount in the cage so they can eat it over the course of a few hours. They will know when it's not ok to eat anymore. If your ferret has insulinoma then they shouldn't be without food for too long.
Thanks, informative. Do you chop chicken wings in smaller pieces before feeding? During chopping, there can be some sharp corners created in bones, are these harmful for cats while eating/ingesting?
You don't have to, but if you're feeding a smaller animal that needs it sectioned, you can cut/chop them. They are fairly small bones, so no worries about the sharp corners. As the commenter mentioned below, I try to cut the flesh around the bone, and then twist the bones and split at the part where they're jointed, if that makes sense. But the main reason I do that is because I don't want to dull my knives LOL
I have whole semi-boneless quail I'd like to incorporate in my dogs diet. Is there any issue with it being frozen and then thawed prior to my dog consuming raw?
Great video. How often can I feed my dog a bone? Is daily okay?
Depends. Are you giving it as a treat with kibble or using it to balance a raw diet? How big is the bone? How big is your dog?
@@PawsofPrey my dog is a working cocker spaniel about 14kg. I'm feeding him raw. He's been getting chicken wings and lamb bones most days for the past couple of weeks.
The chicken feet I have are super hard and I am hesitant to feed them to my small dogs. I cannot cut them with a poultry shears so that makes me think they are too hard.
i live in Turkey, i have a doberman, i can't find chicken feet here, what do you think about raw sheep's feet as a bone (İts very cheap in here and contains high collogen)?Thanks.
Also, thank you for actually describing what the hell a raw meaty bone is lol
I grind up chicken wings for my 8 months old adult male shihtzu, he is not interested in gulping and chewing raw meat and raw bone so I grind and make them into small balls and feed him, I follow the B.A.R.F diet since I cannot find all the ingredients for N.R.C diet. So I balance it over the course of 10 days, that's the best I can do
Thank you this was very helpful. Knuckle bone huh i dont think i have seen this. My sisters small dog has been a challenge to get to chew bones. She only does chicken feet but not enough to clean her teeth. And chicken wings seem to be expensive atm compared to drums.
My dog anything i feed.
Not super easy to find, but I got them from Raw Feeding Miami! Maybe tell her to try holding the bone in her hand while her dog gnaws on it, that way they can't swallow too early.
@@PawsofPrey oh thats a good one. I will def try that.
I have some questions still. This has been a bit intimidating for me but I got my puppy today and started raw immediately... I wanted to take it slow and offer her the kibble the breeder provided for the first meal... but a lot of the day passed by and she would not touch the stuff. I chalked it up to her being in a new environment and having just left her siblings... but the hours kept passing by and I would try to even hand feed her and she would drop it and shake her head. She seems a bit underweight as well and what I figure is that she was still relying on whatever milk she could get from mom and just hated the kibble and wouldn't eat it... So I offered some raw chicken breast and she excitedly gobbled it up. I then decided to just go ahead with feeding raw the rest of the day, and when I got to the bone I just felt a bit anxious. I first offered a wing tip and she knew exactly what to do with it, it seemed. She chewed it up like I have seen your dog do in your videos. Later I offered the middle bone of the wing and I held that one while she chewed as I was afraid of her swallowing it and choking, not that she showed signs she would try to but I was nervous... so I am wondering a few things after this first experience...
1) Do they just crush up the bone and then swallow the piece whole, rather than breaking off bits of bone and swallowing them one at a time?
2) She is 9 weeks old, can I give her the larger bones of the wing? Wing tips are pretty small and I don't stress about it, but should I offer larger bones like the rest of the wing as well as necks?
3) If I am holding the bone to have control over the situation while she chews, should I make sure she breaks off pieces of the larger bones before swallowing? Or will she crush the whole thing and swallow it whole while all the pieces are attached?
Thank you if you take the time to read this, I'm intimidated but I do want to give her her best life and she appears to prefer raw as well.
WOAH HOLD IT THERE MR
How’s your baby doing 🥰and if ever need ‘paws of prey’ & this video made me feel confident giving my 3-6month old kittens chicken wings and between the three ate a whole wing 😮
What about freezer dried ?
For small dogs what do you mean for small under 20,15, or 10 pound??
I could not find chicken backs for my 5 month old kitten anymore so I decided to try giving him chicken wings (flats and drumettes, I can not find wing tips either). His jaw had been trained well enough from chewing on the backs that he can manage to eat the whole wing without much trouble, but I have noticed that he sometimes swallows quite a big chunk of the bone (almost half of the whole drumette) instead of chewing it into smaller pieces.
Today I noticed an undigested part of the bone (maybe around 2cm long) in his stool. Is this a normal occurrence that can happen if given too much bone or should I switch him back to the chicken backs as soon as possible?
It's not a bone problem if he can't digest the bone, it's a digestive issue! Also varying the bones especially for kittens is extremely important so try to switch up with other birds/small animals. A few drops of ACV in the food help making the stomach more acidic so the bones are digested properly :)
my cat is on a premade raw diet (local-made balanced raw grinds). can I still feed 1 chicken feet as a snack twice a week?
What about the bones in air dried mackerel?
You mention the importance of supervision when feeding them bones. Is there something we should be watching for?
How about chicken legs? Can I feed them to my Lab or should I grind them up and add them to the raw meat mix only?
so could/should cats eat the bones or only chew on them?
The whole quail includes feet right? If I wanted to feed the feet to a larger dog since she’s more likely to to vacuum it up should I cut the raw quail foot up?
what is the frame?
Hello! I have a 4-month-old shepsky that I've been transitioning to a raw diet. When I introduced chicken necks and wing, she doesn't chew them, instead just swallows them whole! Is this normal? Is there any way I can encourage her to chew the bones? Thanks love your videos !
I would hold onto one side of the neck and let her gnaw on it, that way it will show her this is something to chew!
Is it safe to give beef ox tail to my 12-lbs Doberman puppy when he is 8 weeks?
A bit late so I might not get a reply but how do you get the correct calcium to phosphorus rate? Also, wouldn't bones like chicken wings/feet be a choking hazard for a giant breed?
Not a choking hazard! The small bones crush up nicely when raw. Cooked bones are bad. Raw are perfectly fine. I like raw chicken feet, bones are small and my doberman loves them
My puppy cannot eat the whole wing, is it ok to cut it up？
Are duck necks ok for cats or too big? I can't find chicken necks where I live but duck necks are everywhere, so I'm wondering if they're safe (my 2 cats are on the smaller side...)
Hello! I have a 9-year old Maltese who's been on the raw diet for about a month and half. How do I know if my dog is eating her chicken wings slow enough? Like how do I know if she chews them enough before swallowing? I feel like she doesn't chew them enough. She crunches down like 4 or 5 times and then swallows, so I've been holding bones for her to make sure she breaks away parts of the wings or feet so it doesn't go down whole. But she seems fine the times she has swallowed chicken wings after less crunches than I'm comfortable with.
If she has been fine, she has been chewing it enough! They often swallow way before us humans would.
Can you suggest a cheap and best raw or boiled diet for 7 months pitbull acc. to India? Cause She's thin 😌❤️
Does the chicken wing mean the whole wing or certain parts of the wing? Is it safe for beginners puppy to eat raw chicken wing tips?
hi,how about boiled meaty bone so pet doesn't get worm parasite
Quick question, my gsd is 13 weeks, decided to get chicken feet for him to try it out, gave him one and he struggled for a bit but started to chew on it for a while and he swallowed it, hes been acting fine since but should I be concerned?
sounds like he’s fine but i’m not a vet just another raw feeder. I would just watch his poop other than that he should be fine
If he chewed it and swallowed it fine, no worries!
Turkey legs are fine for large dogs imo. My dogs have an easy time with them
Yep I mentioned they are fine for large breeds 😁
are goose and turkey bones safe?
Hey quick question, do you know the bone content of chicken wingtips and rabbit feet? I can't seem to find either
Small cuts like these are unfortunately hard to find. I've heard rabbit feet are around 50% bone and wing tips are a little altered from the whole wing's percentage (46%)
@@PawsofPrey thank you! I'm trying to plan out meals for my two cats
My cat has a problem with swallowing raw meaty bones whole. Should I just cut them into tiny pieces even if I lose a bit of the dental benefit? I’m at a loss 😞
Hello. What about dehydrated or air dried bones?
I do not recommend them. Any bone dried with heat are very similar to cooked bones and run the risk of splintering.
Can I feed these raw bones to a dog that primarily eat kebble?
Can I feed my two huskies puppies chicken feet at 3/4 months?
what about the cross contamination issue how do you prevent that?
Safe handling skills is all you need. Have one place where you prep raw meat (away from where you prep your food) and wash all surfaces properly once done. Of course wash your hands thoroughly as well.
I'm surprised no one asked this, and you do mention it at 2:49 , but my cat is small, elderly, and sick with kidney disease, I don't feel comfortable feeding her bone that is not ground up into a fine powder. Can you feed her the bone ground up in the food? Is that unsafe? Like food-grade bone meal?? Or just grind/grate up the bone/frame of the meat-supporting-bone? As a human, I don't eat bones so I am having trouble understanding cats and dogs eating and digesting the whole/powdered bone process. Please answer.
I've been watching a lot of your other videos and, for my cat, I've found scientific research that proves you can substitute bones for calcium carbonate or eggshells, like you mentioned in your video about kidney problems in pets, and I will be doing more research and looking into that for my cat. Other studies say don't use calcium carbonate, so I need to learn a lot more. For that reason the original question is now moot it seems, unless I'm not going to use the calcium carbonate. It's tricky.
I'd highly recommend getting a meal plan created by Perfeclyrawsome.com or rawpetsrule.com ! They can help formulate your kitty a KD friendly diet!
@@PawsofPrey Thanks for your answer! I am already perusing. Nature provides the answer, we just need to understand her.
im reading an article on catcentric called 'Whole Bone Alternatives: When and How to Use Them in a Raw Fed Cat’s Diet', finding it helpful as well

Are meaty lamb necks safe for giant breed dogs?
Can we give boiled chicken feets and heads to semi adult Pitbull ? And what's the nutritional value of these per 100g ?
I’ve watched a lot of your videos now, and I haven’t seen anything mentioned about squirrel. Is it ok to feed squirrel flesh, bone, or organ?
I suppose you could. I would be worried about parasites etc. that the squirrel would have because it is wild. But maybe if you froze it for a couple months and then gave it to your dog it might be safe
Should I remove the nail from chicken feed
Thank you for this video! I am currently feeding my dog his very first raw chicken wing and even tho ive been doing so much research, i cant shake the feeling that it COULD be dangerous 😢 your video helped me calm down! My dog seems to love it 😂
Question: I gave my chihuahua a raw chicken finger. He was chewing it for a few minutes and then swallowed the whole finger! Rather than incrementally.
Is this normal? Is this dangerous??
I have a 60 pound black mouth cur want to switch to a raw diet . Can I give chicken quarter s every day . Should cut or smash the bone to make it easier to eat . Tyvm for your time

Can I feed my large dog chicken drumsticks everyday as the meaty bone ?
this is a lot of damn work to feed raw
Is it alarming that my puppy swallowing the chicken neck, and he did not chew or crunched it
My bully is 4 months old. Is he allowed to eat raw chicken leg/drumstick?
Are pork necks ok? That seems to be the only raw bone my dog will eat 😩I have tried chicken wings, chicken feet he won't even try it. He loves the pork necks
I can't find what the bone percentage is for chicken wing tips. Do you know? I think that it's higher than the chicken wing percentage but can't find a number.
Are turkey necks ok for a 16 pound Doberman Pinscher puppy?
Those are a tad bit too big in my opinion, but you can always monitor. I just worry about if it is too thick and you try to take it away, it will cause resource guarding issues down the line. That's a whole other issue though! Is there anything a little smaller you can find?
I'm looking into switching to a raw diet for my dog, but I'm worried about raw chicken. I've seen it recommended a lot, how do I know what kind of raw chicken is good for my dog?
Most commercial dog foods contain chicken. If your pet isn’t showing signs of allergies now, chicken is most likely safe for your dog. I am learning to transition also. I plan on giving my dog something new every day as a snack to see what she likes and if she has an intolerance. Once I discover something is good, I’ll add it to her bowl, and keep offering Kibble, decreasing it as I continue to add raw. To get the variety I need, I will check out the Asian market and the Hispanic market, as my local Kroger doesn’t have many of the organic meat choices.
Can they eat raw lamb bone femur?
Does thawing chicken make the bones brittle in any way?
is it okay to remove the bone from the meal and feed it a few seconds after the rest of the meal
I think it'll be advisable to not remove the meal, because once the dog is chewing on the raw bone, it is also eating something, not just chewing on a bone.
