How to transition your pet to Frontier Pets freeze-dried raw foodUpdated 5 months ago

If your pet has been on a diet of dry kibble and/or processed wet food, it’s important to transition gradually to raw feeding as a complete balanced meal.* Raw food is digested differently from processed food. Transitioning too quickly to raw feeding can cause stomach upset.  

Similarly, if your pet is used to dry kibble or canned food, they may be fussy with raw food at first, so gradually introducing raw food will help their taste buds adjust. 

Start with 20% Frontier Pets Raw Freeze-Dried food and 80% of your pet’s ‘usual’ food. Feed the 20/80 ratio for 2-4 days; if there are no major concerns, adjust the ratio to 40/60 for the next 2-4 days. Increase Frontier Pets by 20% every 2-4 days until you feed 100% Frontier Pets food as a complete balanced meal. 

This guide only follows general Vet advice for transitioning to raw feeding. However, every pet is unique and may transition at a different pace. If you have concerns, it’s best to contact your Vet or Animal Health Specialist. Learn more about how to transition to raw pet food.

*Frontier Pets Freeze-Dried Raw Pet Food can be used as a complete balanced meal for 100% raw feeding, or as a Topper for a raw nutrient boost to their usual meals.
