Why nervous? Has your vet said he's underweight or can you see ribs?

No need to worry. Each dog has an individual metabolism like we do. Some need little food (raw or otherwise) compared to other dogs.

Go by feel and look of the dog and increase / decrease accordingly. Raw isn't an exact diet.

That was probably just a 'changeover' period while his digestive system adapted to the raw.
