Benefits of BARF feeding
The primary advantage of BARF feeding is that the composition of the food is known exactly. This is particularly helpful for dogs and cats with Food allergies, as it means that the presence of allergenic substances in the food can be ruled out. All ingredients are fresh and as they are not cooked, no valuable vitamins are lost during preparation. Feeding raw meat and bones can strengthen teeth and jaws and support the natural cleaning of teeth . A properly composed BARF diet can also have a positive effect on the digestion of dogs and cats. Raw food contains natural enzymes and probiotics that support digestion and help to keep the intestinal flora in balance.
The risks of BARF feeding
BARF feeding carries the risk of malnutrition, as pet owners often have to compile the food rations themselves and therefore have to ensure a balanced and sufficient supply of all nutrients, vitamins, minerals and trace elements. For a balanced and healthy diet, the food must be precisely adapted to the individual nutritional requirements of the dog or cat. The correct composition of any BARF ration is particularly important for young dogs that are still growing, as errors in feeding during this phase can lead to permanent damage. It is therefore essential that pet owners take a close look at their pet's nutritional requirements. To ensure the optimal composition of a BARF food ration, the feeding plan should be drawn up in close cooperation with a specialist in dog and cat nutrition.
The transmission of pathogens to animals or their owners is another risk associated with BARF feeding. Raw meat can be a carrier of pathogenic bacteria or parasites. Strict kitchen hygiene is therefore very important when feeding raw meat. The meat must be frozen and may only be defrosted slowly in the refrigerator shortly before feeding.
More and more feed manufacturers are offering ready-to-eat meat in fresh, wet or dry form. This not only saves you time when preparing the food, it also contains all the important nutrients your dog needs. And feeding your dog with ready-to-eat products is particularly practical when traveling.
In our store you will find a wide selection of 100% canned meat, wet and dry barf as well as barf supplements to provide your dog with optimal nutrition.
If you are unsure which BARF food is right for your dog or if you have any questions about the optimal composition of the BARF food ration, please contact your vet or our team of vets.
