Great new RAW food for Weaning puppies

Aw puppy squeaks, can't resist them, Evie was nearly twisting her head off to see where the noise was coming from. Looks good food, I have always started my pups off on a similar beef and bone mix from my butcher. Evie has it sometimes on her raw days and just started Pickle on it, and the good thing is it is 25p a pound. :p
 
It looks ok but it is would be a very unbalanced diet if this were fed as more than a small proportion of the puppies diet.
I'm old enough to remember scraping beef as a first food for puppies and having them on mince by 4 weeks.

Why would it be an unbalanced diet?

These prepacked raw food companies tend to sell exactly what you need meat to bone ratio and is a really good way for people to introduce raw feed into their dog's life :-)
 
It is just chicken meat & bone - no offal, no herbage (gut contents).

It would lack minerals and vitamins. It is designed as a complementary food to bitches milk and is not a complete diet although no doubt some people will try to use it as such. If you look at the adult diets they are not just muscle meat & bone.
