Barf Diet For Dogs - Not As Gross As It Sounds!
By Tara Pearce, Fri Dec 9th
Are you just starting to research the BARF diet for dogs – alsoknown as “bones and raw food” or the RAW diet? It can beconfusing – I remember asking TONS of questions when I firststarted. How do you know how much to feed? WHAT do you feed? Canyou mix the BARF diet with processed food? How long does it taketo prepare the raw food? How much does it cost to buy all theBARF products necessary? Should you feed raw meat andvegetables? Well, on the last question, only you can decidewhat’s right for your dog, but I’ll answer the rest of yourquestions as best I can. How do you know how much to feed? It really depends on the weight of your dog. Most peoplerecommend 2-5% of their body weight. Just make sure you knowyour dog’s weight before starting, and then watch their weightand adjust depending if they gain/lose/maintain.
WHAT do you feed? Raw meaty bones, like chicken necks and backs for example.Muscle meat which has no bones. Organ meat, like lungs, liver,kidneys, etc. Some people also include raw vegetables.

If you buy pre-prepared BARF for your dog, it only takes thetime to defrost and put in their bowl. If you prefer the (doit yourself) method, this would depend on what you’re servingand to how many dogs. Most people recommend pre-packaging once aweek in the serving sizes necessary for your dog. You couldprobably safely count on a half hour per dog, less if you canget your butcher to do some of the cutting for you. How much does it cost to buy all the BARF products necessary? This would also depend on whether you’re going with the orbuying the packaged food. usually requires hunting forbargains and can be time consuming. What I prefer to do (withonly 2 dogs) is buy my BARF pre-packaged from a reputablecompany and I serve that. It can be more expensive, but with ourbusy lives, I don’t mind paying a few bucks more.
