How to transition to raw pet food
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 to 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 20/80 ratio for 2-4 days, and 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 are feeding 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 they may transition at a different pace. If you have any concerns, contact us at or consult your Vet or Animal Health Specialist.
*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. See our Feeding Guide for details.
*FEEDING TIP: You can wait for all the water to be absorbed, or you can give your pet the bowl while there is still some water remaining. It makes no difference to the nutritional quality of the meal. And your pet will still get the right hydration as they will usually drink up any delicious excess water whilst eating their dog food or cat food.

When selecting dog food, several factors should be taken into consideration to ensure you're providing your furry friend with a balanced and nutritious diet:
1. Ingredients: Opt for foods with real meats listed first and minimal artificial additives or fillers.
2. Nutritional Balance: Ensure the food meets AAFCO guidelines for essential nutrients suitable for your dog's life stage and size. Frontier Pets food is formulated to meet and exceed the nutritional levels established by the Association of American Feed Control Officials (AAFCO) and the National Research Council (NRC) UK to be a complete and balanced food for adult dogs, puppies, and adult cats.
3. Special Dietary Needs: Consider protein carefully if your dog has allergies or sensitivities.
4. Free-Range & Organic: Look for options with free-range protein and organic ingredients for higher quality and potential health benefits.
By prioritising these factors, you can select a quality dog food that supports your pet's health and wellbeing in Australia.
Dogs, being omnivorous scavengers, necessitate a protein-rich diet, with roughly 80% of their food originating from animal sources to adequately fulfill their nutritional requirements. This underscores the significance of protein for dogs, as it facilitates muscle development, supplies energy, enhances immune function, preserves skin and coat health, assists in tissue repair, and sustains vital organ function. Thus, protein intake is pivotal for ensuring their overall health and well-being.
"Complete and balanced" on a dog food label signifies that the product meets the nutritional requirements established by regulatory authorities like the Association of American Feed Control Officials (AAFCO) or similar organisations. For dogs, this means the food provides all the essential nutrients in the right proportions to support their health at their specific life stage.
This includes proteins, fats, carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals. For dogs, who are omnivorous scavengers, a balanced diet typically consists of around 80% animal-derived ingredients to fulfill their protein needs adequately. This protein content supports muscle development, energy production, immune function, and overall well-being.
Therefore, when a dog food label claims to be "complete and balanced," it means the formulation meets the nutritional standards necessary for dogs' well-being, considering their omnivorous nature and specific dietary requirements.
To determine your dog's daily caloric needs, you may use our feeding calculator or daily feeding guide and bypass the manual calculations.
