Raw Beef Diet

Pet owners love Steve’s Real Food Beef Diet for the low-fat, nutrient dense, and lean muscle meat we use. Beef is particularly high in zinc and copper--two nutrients that work together to support the metabolism. In addition to the exceptional nutritional benefits of the meat, our Beef Diet contains unique ingredients, such as high-fiber apples, which provide a complete and balanced nutritional profile. One of the differences between Steve’s and other raw meat diets is our meat-to-veggie ratio of 80% to 20%. This gives your dog nutrition that provides the proteins and essential vitamins and minerals that help fight disease and promote strong bones, muscles, and organ function.

If you have never fed raw before, you may be surprised as you watch your dog's health improve while they transition to a healthier diet. It's important to be aware of how much you should be feeding your pet. When you feed your pet a raw food diet, they will often require less food than if you were to feed them a kibble/grain-based diet, because the food has so much more nutritional value. There are a few factors that will affect the recommended amount to feed your pet, such as age, activity level, and weight goals. We use the bodyweight percentage rule, which estimates feeding amounts based on the weight of your pet. For example, if you have a 50-pound adult Australian Shepherd, then you would want to feed them 2.5% of their body weight, which is 1.25 lb (daily).

50lbs x 2.5% = 1.25 lbs

Body Weight Percentage Recommendation: We suggest that you feed your pet the following percentages based on their activity and weight goals.
