raw feeding, less poop??

class3204 · 02-05-2012, 02:41 PM

I have changed my 3 year old GSD from kibble to raw...she has been on it for about 4 days now....i have been giving her just chicken breasts because on day 1 i gave her chicken thighs and quarters and she threw up the bone 4-6 hours later, so i have been hesitant in giving bones just yet. When she was on kibble she went poo about 2x a day and it was a huge pile. now she goes only once a day and much smaller and firmer. is this normal??

Very normal and one of the side benefits of feeding raw!!

You'll probably also notice that it smells less, too!!

I have got odd looks when I said AND his poop doesn't smell as bad, but it's true!
