Wild Mix

• Venison. Deer meat from New Zealand, in every batch.
• Horse. A red meat many dogs haven’t had before.
• Goat. Another protein that’s new to most dogs.
• Alpaca. One of the least common meats in raw pet food, also in every batch.
• Offal. Organ meat, about 10% of a raw diet on the 80/10/10 rule of thumb.

No beef, chicken, lamb, fish, tripe or grain. Green tripe counts as beef, so leaving it out keeps Wild Mix clear of beef altogether. It’s the only one of our block mixes with no beef or chicken.

Bring it in slowly, mixing a little more Wild Mix into your dog’s current food each day over 7 to 10 days. Most adult dogs eat about 2 to 3% of their body weight a day, and our feed calculator works out how many boxes that means for your dog. Our guides to novel proteins for dogs and horse meat for dogs explain where these meats fit in a raw diet.

Thaw a block or two at a time overnight in the fridge and keep the rest frozen. Thawed, it keeps two to three days in a sealed container. At the calculator’s adult amounts, a 10 kg box lasts a 10 kg dog about 6 weeks, a 20 kg dog about 3 weeks and a 30 kg dog about 2 weeks.

To keep the week free of beef and chicken, add Goat Bones for the bone part of the diet, or rotate in Goat Mince or Lamb & Heart Rolls on other days.

Wild Mix also sits on our raw goat dog food page, next to Goat Mince and Goat Bones. It’s one of our speciality raw dog foods too, with Green Tripe, Tripe Rolls and Balance Mix.

Wild Mix is made to order in the Waikato and delivered chilled across Auckland and the Waikato. Each 10 kg box is cut into blocks, so you only thaw what the day needs. They’re about 500 g each, stacked in a liner inside a 36 × 27 × 18 cm carton.
