	As a breeder of German Shepherd dogs I sought out a better healthier way to avoid the common ailments plaguing many dogs, not just the pure bred dogs. Complaints from owners with dogs troubled with allergies, such issues I never saw in my dogs. I have been 'old school' for a long time, always feeding raw chicken and beef hearts, liver, kidneys and green tripe to my dogs. Learned that from my father. Not only raw, but supplementing with raw in addition to a quality kibble. Whenever you feed a dog raw, their enthusiasm rises tremendously. Its like they're saying "Hey you ARE getting it eh!" The quality of the pups coming from litters where the dam's are fed a raw diet is substantial. The pups devour their food when given raw instead of kibble. Their nose is not lying! The cost of canned green tripe has gone sky rocketing. Though they are excellent canned products, they are still processed foods, with much water added as well as filler products. Moisture, it refers to, is at approximately 80%!!! For a dog 50-80 lbs it recommends 2.3/4 to 3 3/4 cans PER DAY at $2.30 per can that is $8.00 per day! Thus I HAD to find a better way. Not just for my dogs, but for the people who come to me and purchase a pup. I shopped for some time to find a person whom I could collaborate with. We are what we eat, & so are our dogs...! How much should I feed my adult dog? Adult dogs can be fed between 2-3% of the their body weight. We recommend starting with 1/2 pound of food per 25 lbs of body weight daily and make adjustments according to your dog's age and activity. We also suggest that the daily ration be split to feed morning and night. Remember that a healthy dog is not overweight. How much do I feed my puppy? feed puppies up to 10 % of their body weight. Therefore, if your pup weighs 10 lbs you should feed 1 lb of food divided between 3 or 4 feedings per day. Growing puppies, especially the large breeds, should be kept lean so adjustments to feeding amounts will have to be monitored closely. Can I feed processed foods with the Species Appropriate Diet™? We do NOT recommend combining a raw food diet in the same meal as processed foods. The digestive rate for dry processed food is much longer than for raw foods which can cause digestive disturbances. While acknowledging wholesome foods as basic to their own health, many people still believe their pets will be healthiest when fed processed junk food. Not surprisingly, this simply isn't so. While not optimal, you can feed kibble and raw to pets as long as they are fed in separate meals ie kibble in the morning and raw at night. Some customers also ad our BARF supplements to kibble. diet and hunting behavior of the Canis lupus (wolve) Wolves hunt as a unit, each one performing a specific task to help accomplish the kill. Wolves are opportunistic feeders, and will eat just about anything they can catch within their territory. Wolves will eat moose, deer, caribou, beavers, elk, bighorn sheep, oxen, rabbits, squirrels, waterfowl, mice, mountain goats, and fruit and vegetation. Vegetation is important to all wolves diets as they add important nutrients and roughage to their systems. They usually get enough vegetation from eating the stomach contents of its prey, but sometimes it is necessary to supplement this with grass, fruits, berries, or leaves. They usually the sick, weak, and old ungulates (hoofed mammals), as they are easier to catch, so they are an essential part of the ecosystem, as they cull the weak and allow the strong to survive. Wolves can and do take healthy prey, but they normally only take weak animals. From this website
