German Shepherd/Labrador cross puppy which food to give?

nowayout1

Hey we've a 6 month old GSD/Lab cross and we're feeding him Beta Large Breed puppy which the vet recommended to us. We feed him 2-3 times a day with 2 cups of food in his bowl. When eating he hurry's it down, I've noticed his poop sometimes is loose & others they're solid. I was thinking of putting him on a raw feed diet as I've read online that its beneficial for certain breeds to be on a raw feed. I've found a place online that sell raw feed & are based in Clondalkin.

I'm open to hear what people recommend & if anyone else who raw feeds their dog any places that they get them from that are good value for money & any pointers to doing it.

My 9 month old German Shepherd is on Markus Muhle NatureNah from zooplus.ie and is doing really well on it. His poo has gone from difficult to pick up to easy to pick up since I changed him over.

A lot of people recommend feeding raw, I'd be tempted to try it myself but I find the cost and the smell of it off putting, you also need a lot of storage space for their food. I know people who have bought chest freezers just to store their raw dog food.

I raw feed 3 with just one drawer in the freezer, my 3 in total eat about 1.2kg a day. I have taken the salad drawer out of the bottom of the fridge and i store about 3 days worth there and using the chubbs and minces from Carnivore Kellys ( the place in Clondalkin) I can fit about 3 weeks worth into my freezer - i'm really good at tetris

My youngest dog is a collie cross - possibly husky, or shepherd and she has thrived on the raw diet
