I'm getting a Lhasa Apso puppy and I'm wondering how to go about feeding such a small dog. He will probably only be about 5 pounds when I get him. Can I give him a small chicken wing or should I wait until he gets his adult teeth before feeding him any RMBs?

Hi Boyd,

I’m glad to hear you are having success with the diet.

For a small dog, I feed pretty much the same thing as I do a bigger dog. Our corgis have been raised on the raw diet from puppyhood and as adults are less than 20 pounds. Chicken drumsticks are good, or breast quarters or leg quarters from Cornish hens. If the pup can’t eat the whole thing now, as he grows and his jaws get stronger he’ll be able to eat more and more. Chicken wings are ok occasionally, but they are mostly skin, fat and bone so they aren’t something I give a lot of.

If you don’t have these 2 books, I’d highly recommend them. Raw Dog Food and Natural Nutrition for Dogs and Cats. We give both these books to our puppy customers and rarely have questions about the diet

I hope this helps.

Cindy
