Disclaimer and affiliate disclosure
Two things to be clear about: the calculator is general guidance, not veterinary advice, and some links on this site earn a commission.
- Updated 31 October 2026
Feeding guidance
The calculator and guides on Raw Dog Foods give general information based on percent of body weight feeding, a method widely used by raw food manufacturers and raw feeders. It is a starting point. It does not account for your dog's health, breed, metabolism, neutering status or medical history.
Always consult a vet or a qualified canine nutritionist before changing your dog's diet, and in particular before raw feeding a puppy, a pregnant or nursing dog, an elderly dog or a dog with any medical condition. Monitor body condition and adjust. If your dog is unwell, see a vet. Nothing on this site is a diagnosis, a treatment or a claim that raw food prevents or cures any condition.
Raw meat carries bacteria that can affect people as well as dogs. Follow the hygiene steps in the transition guide and government food safety guidance.
Affiliate disclosure
Raw Dog Foods takes part in the Awin affiliate network. Links to Bella + Duke, Pure Pet Food, Tuggs are affiliate links, or will be once each brand's programme has approved us; until then they go direct to the brand. If you click an affiliate link and make a purchase, we receive a commission from the brand. The price you pay is the same.
How this is handled on the site:
- Every block of affiliate links has a disclosure line directly above it.
- Affiliate links are marked for search engines as sponsored and do not pass ranking signals.
- Commission does not affect the calculator results, which brands are listed, or the order they appear in.
- Links go through our own redirect at /go/ so that we can count clicks. No personal data is stored by us in the process. See the privacy policy.
- Brands that are not raw (Pure Pet Food, Tuggs) are labelled as not raw wherever they appear.
Links to other brands (Natures Menu, Nutriment, Durham Animal Feeds, Paleo Ridge) are not affiliate links at the time of writing. If that changes this page will be updated.
Prices
Prices are checked by hand and shown with the date they were checked. They will drift. Always confirm the current price with the seller before buying. Where a price could not be confirmed, the site says so rather than estimating.
Liability
The information on this site is provided in good faith and as is. Raw Dog Foods accepts no liability for any loss, injury or illness arising from use of the calculator, the guides or any product bought through a link on this site.
