BARF barf raw food diet for dogs2007-11-25 2:59:06

Of those who feed a BARF diet, what exactly do you feed them.?

I'm interested in examples of actual diets you give your dog.

I have friends that have their dogs on raw, but where I live they don't have the meal packages or they're way too expensive. So we are going to have to do this from scratch. (the veg and fruit part)

I'm not interested in somebody telling me about possibilities of salmonella poisoning, blah blah blah. Go to your local dog food factory and see how much salmonella you can find in the factory. And while you're there ask why most of the food they make is not even absorbed or capable of being absorbed by the dog's system - it's filler and most is bad filler. It's sickening! I've done my research, and I have made up my mind. I've seen results and heard of results.. dogs on their death bed switched to raw and turning 360s. Less vet visits, doctors asking what the flip the people have their dog on because they seem so healthy, etc.

Answers:

Go to www.rawdogranch.com which has some good instructions. Ours were on a raw diet for some months and did great on it. It is a lot of maintenance and we decided to go back to a good commercial food because of travel and where we live.

B.A.R.F? Sounds so appetizing! Hmmm.

The major part of my dog and cats' diet is from poultry, it is easy to locate at stores, ground turkey is easy to make prepared raw meals out of and is about the same price as better dog foods.

I've never had any of my dogs on B.A.R.F. diet, but I've been researching Copper Toxicosis (most dry foods are high in copper) which affects the liver.
