The most important thing for your new puppy, and throughout the rest of his entire life, will be his diet. commercial dog foods are not natural for a dog. The best thing you can feed your dog is a prey model diet, which consists of meat, organ meat, and bone. (ex- cheapest/easiest thing to feed are chicken quarters) dogs are virtually identical to wolves genetically, and need the same diet as a wolf eats in nature to retain optimal health.
the 2 main types of raw fed diets are barf and prey model. barf is basically meat and bones with added fruits/veggies. in my opinion, this is unnatural, for dogs cannot properly digest and use nutri3ents in fruits/veggies. wolves dont need them in the wild, and neither does your dog. with fresh meat, organ meat, and bones, your dog will have all the nutrients it needs.
