Edible bone (10%) (g)
โ€”
Organ โ€” half liver (10%) (g)

The 80/10/10 ratio is the popular BARF/PMR starting framework. Important caveats vets stress: home-prepared raw diets are frequently nutritionally unbalanced (calcium, taurine, trace minerals) and carry salmonella/parasite risks for pets and the household โ€” AVMA discourages raw feeding for these reasons. If feeding raw, work with a veterinary nutritionist on a complete-and-balanced recipe. This tool is for portion math, not endorsement.
