My dog and the BARF diet.

in life •  7 years ago 

That post is great. I didn’t expect to see raw diets and content on Steemit. I have been raw feeding my animals, particularly my dogs for over 5 years. Great to see the BARF diet catching on. Few suggestions, the BARF diet is based on percentages of bone, meat, offal, fruit, vegetables and supplementation. The percentages are there to ensure a dog gets what it needs. Perhaps refer Dr Ian Billinghurst’s (founder of BARF) book as a reference when making your recipe. I look forward to seeing more!

Thanks for the suggestion. I already know about the complete diet using percentage of fruits, bones and offal. But i use a basic concept fo short words. The supplementation is optional, and depends of the requeriment made by the veterinarian. And i did not use a whole diet has said many expert on BARF diet because i slowly cook the food and it ruin the fruits and the cooked bones are dangerous. Im really glad you share with me. :)

Thanks for the reply. Have you considered researching into why the food is scientifically preferred to be raw as opposed to being cooked? Supplementation is used to compensate for inherently deficient modern soil conditions and also to optimise gut health, which would normally have been catered for far more effectively in more primal dog diets.

All you just said is true and im not opossed to that, but remember than choises are individuals and the supplements not always has to be a rule. And i already make a research of the scientific preference of raw food than the cooked few times ago. I choose to cook a little the raw food because i choose to storage it and save my money by the economic issue in my country. But also i give a complete raw food sometimes to my dog for dont lose the habit. :)
