We've been feeding raw for 9 years. I cannot recommend Darwin's
We've been feeding raw for 9 years. We recently tried Darwin's with our 12 week old Bernese Mountain Dog puppy. We transitioned to raw immediately at 8 weeks when we brought him home. Was kibble fed by the breeder. Went very smooth! Healthy, firm stools. I've been transitioning to Darwin's for over a week using their chicken. Something to add into his rotations. My puppy has gone from 3-4 stools a day to 12 plus a day! Also the chicken does not smell high quality. Somewhat old and sour. Came frozen so no issue there and I thaw one 4oz package in the fridge overnight. I was feeding 4oz a day to transition. One package thawed per day and 1oz in each of his 4 feedings per day (1/4 of his meal). I started the beef yesterday and continue with only 1oz per meal 4x a day. His diarrhea has gotten worse. UPDATE: Stopped using Darwin's. Returned to only using the other premade raw which he's been eating since 8 weeks old. Diarrhea stopped and he's back to 3 to 4 healthy stools a day. I also emailed Customer Relations and have not received a response from them.
