Raw Inspiration

“Start where you are. Use what you have. Do what “Start where you are. Use what you have. Do what you can.” - Arthur Ashe American Tennis Player . . . . . . There is no better quote to clearly communicate what we, at Perfectly Rawsome, believe when it comes to embarking on your raw feeding journey. Whether you feed a balanced diet or a mixed diet, we are here to support you and your pets on this journey and provide assistance where we can. Try not to get caught up in worrying over not knowing everything, not having cabinets full of supplements like “everyone else,” not being able to source novelty proteins, and not having 10 chest freezers...if you get stuck in this cycle, it’ll never be the “right” time and you’ll never have “everything you need” to get started. Just do the best you can with what’s in front of you! . . . . . . How many of you feel like your fear of not doing everything “perfectly” kept you from starting your raw feeding journey sooner? 🌍 PerfectlyRawsome.com (link in bio): 🥩 Custom Meal Plans ☎️ Phone Consultations ⚖️ Recipe Analysis & Adjustments 📊 Diet Spreadsheets 🛒 Perfectly Rawsome Merch 🐾 Free Raw Feeding Guides #PerfectlyRawsome #RawFeedingUniversity #RawFeeding #RawFeedingCommunity #RawFeedingMiami #FreshFood #CanineNutrition #BarfModel #RawFedDog #RawDogFood #DogFood #DogDiet #FelineNutrition #RawFedCats #InpirationalQuote #QuoteOfTheDay #ArthurAshe

Frequently treats can be overlooked. Whether it’s a snack for coming inside or used for training sessions, even the quality of treats matters! 🐕 Training uses lots of treats to lure, reward, reset, and more. This means your dog is getting a good quantity of treats over its lifetime. 🔪 Homemade treats are super easy and fun to make, plus they take out all the worry of sketchy ingredients or sourcing from store-bought treats. 👉 Make sure to visit the link in our bio to learn how to make your very own homemade treats!

👉 Many photos of raw meals look too "perfect" o 👉 Many photos of raw meals look too "perfect" or "pretty" which can overwhelm pet parents who are considering a raw diet for their pet. Although these photos are a great example to show individual ingredients in a meal, it is an unrealistic view of everyday life for the majority of raw feeders. Therefore we are creating Messy Bowl Monday as a way to showcase real life examples of raw meals for dogs and cats! 🐾 Messy Bowl Monday for Ronny's German Shorthaired Pointer, Quest. Quest is 77lbs and eats 2500kcal a day which is roughly 47-50oz (1300-1400g). 🐶 Quest is a sport performance dog with a primary focus in tracking and scent detection. His diet is strategically formulated to promote olfactory cooling to enhance his scenting ability. This means his diet is higher in essential fatty acids and minerals than typically used in an average pet dog diet. 📆 September 13th, 2021 Messy Bowl Monday Menu: 🥩 @purepheasant 80/10/10 🦙 @rawfeedingmiami Alpaca Fat 🐄 @texastripe Beef Organ Blend 🥛 Homemade Kefir 🥬 Green Beans, steamed 🌰 Flax Seeds, fresh ground 🌱 Nutritional Yeast 🐟 @nordicnaturals Fish Oil 💊 Joint Supplement 💊 Zinc 💊 Manganese 💊 Vitamin E 💊 Vitamin D 🔖 We want to encourage pet parent who feed their dogs and cats raw to share their messy bowls in addition to their beautifully plated raw meals.

🧑‍⚕️ Many pet parents feel overwhelmed wh 🧑‍⚕️ Many pet parents feel overwhelmed when discussing their pet’s homemade diet with their vet. It can be difficult to navigate these conversations with an anti-raw veterinarian, but it doesn’t need to be stressful! It is often possible to cultivate a positive working relationship with your veterinarian and their staff. In order to accomplish this it is important to understand their perspective. 🔹 There are several considerations that should be taken into account in order to foster a respectful and productive discussion with an anti-raw veterinarian: ⭐️ Respect Always remain respectful when interacting with a veterinarian, vet tech, and their administrative staff. ⭐️ Transparency Never withhold information from a veterinarian. This includes all details about a home prepared diet. ⭐️ Communication Maintain an open line of communication with a veterinarian to discuss their concerns about the home prepared diet. ⭐️ Boundaries Pet parents are allowed to have personal boundaries about their pet’s diet. However, the veterinarian may have boundaries as well. ⭐️ Collaboration Ask the veterinarian for their suggestions on changes to the diet – their recommendations may be useful. ⭐️ Patience Time is one of the best teachers and patience is a necessary virtue. It can take time for vets to gain perspective that a raw or fresh diet is the ideal choice. ⭐️ Acceptance Some veterinarians will not change their opinions about raw diets – and that's ok! 📰 Read the full article (link in bio): https://perfectlyrawsome.com/raw-feeding-knowledgebase/seven-tips-when-encountering-an-anti-raw-veterinarian/ #PerfectlyRawsome #RawFeedingUniversity #RawFeeding #RawFeedingCommunity #RawFeedingMiami #FreshFood #CanineNutrition #BarfModel #RawFedDog #RawDogFood #DogFood #DogDiet #FelineNutrition #RawFedCats #CatFood #CatDiet #DVM #Veterinarian
