FAQs
Is this product suitable for all puppy breeds?
Yes, the 80/20 Chicken Mince is balanced to support the growth of all breeds, though feeding amounts should be adjusted based on the puppy's individual weight and metabolism.
What is Diaturm?
Diaturm is a natural supplement blend containing turmeric and food-grade diatomaceous earth, included to support healthy digestion and immune function.
Do I need to add extra supplements?
No, this is a complete and balanced meal that meets FEDIAF standards, so no additional supplements are required unless advised by a veterinarian.
How long can I keep the defrosted mince in the fridge?
Once fully defrosted in the refrigerator, it should be consumed within 48 hours for maximum freshness.
Can I cook this food?
No, this product is intended to be fed raw. Cooking it will compromise the integrity of the bone content and the specific nutrient balance designed for raw absorption.
Troubleshooting
Puppy has loose stools after starting the diet
This is common during transitions. Ensure you are transitioning slowly and consider reducing the portion size slightly until the digestive system adapts.
Mince is taking too long to defrost
Plan ahead by moving the pack from the freezer to the fridge the night before. Do not use a microwave to defrost as it partially cooks the meat and changes the nutritional profile.

Handle the raw mince with the same caution as human-grade poultry. Always wash your hands, utensils, and surfaces thoroughly with hot soapy water immediately after contact. Ensure the feeding bowl is cleaned after every meal.
