Puppy Raw Food Calculator
Calculate daily raw food portions for puppies with age-appropriate bone, meat, and organ ratios for safe healthy growth.
What Is the Puppy Raw Food Calculator?
Calculate daily raw food portions for puppies with age-appropriate bone, meat, and organ ratios for safe healthy growth.
Raw feeding puppies is more complex than feeding adults. Puppies need more food as a percentage of bodyweight, higher bone content for calcium, and more frequent meals. This calculator gives you the correct puppy-specific raw portions at every growth stage.
Every result is based on published veterinary research and breed-size-specific growth data — not generic averages. This tool is completely free, works instantly in your browser, and requires no account or sign-up.

How It Works
Puppy raw feeding uses the same percentage-of-bodyweight approach as adult raw feeding but with key differences. The total percentage is higher — up to 8% of bodyweight for very young puppies versus 2-2.5% for adults. The bone content is also higher at 15% instead of 10%, because puppies are actively building bone and require more calcium relative to bodyweight than adult dogs.
The muscle meat percentage is slightly lower at 65% versus 70% for adults to accommodate the higher bone percentage. Organ meat remains at 10% with liver making up half of that. The other 10% covers eggs, oily fish, and vegetables. These ratios ensure puppies get the calcium-to-phosphorus ratio (ideally 1.2:1 to 1.4:1) critical for healthy bone development.
Veterinary Research
Every formula is derived from peer-reviewed veterinary studies and clinical guidelines, not guesswork or generic rules.
