FEEDING
-
Introducing drastic changes to your dog’s diet can cause stomach issues and loose stools especially when transitioning to raw diets. To help your dog’s body adjust to their new diet, you can gradually increase the proportion of GoodWoof in their meals and monitor their stool quality.
If your dog has loose stools during the transition period, retain the proportion of new food until the stools firm up before carrying on.

Storage
When stored and kept frozen below -18 degrees, the food can last for up to 1 year. We recommend using the food within 6 months for optimal quality. Once defrosted, use food within 3 days.Defrosting
Defrost the required amount of food the day before by shifting the food into the fridge from the freezer. For the Value Trays, you may cut and defrost the amount needed.
If you forget to defrost the day before, you can soak the sealed pack or tray in a big bowl of water to defrost the food safely and quickly. Alternatively, you can use the defrost function on your microwave.We strongly discourage leaving the food out at room temperature for extended periods of time especially to defrost as it will lead to rapid bacteria build up on the surface.
Feeding
For maximum convenience, you can feed the defrosted food cold from the fridge. Only Cooked diets can be warmed up before feeding. Raw diets from the BARF or Prey Model range should be fed raw.If you would like to warm up the food, we strongly recommend reheating the food till it is barely warm to the touch only and not piping hot to support nutrient retention.
