My experience with BARF diet.
I have a 5 yr old female Brittany who has been on a "fresh" diet for 3 years.
Her diet is fairly simple and made up of the following:
Roo Tails
Chicken Wings
Vegetables (uncooked and mulched)
Fish (once a week and only whiting or garfish or other fine boned fish)
Raw Eggs are mixed in occasionally.
Fairly straightforward, and she has thrived on it. Her coat is glossy and soft and we don't wash her( we let her occasional swim take care of that.)
Her poos are solid and not messy, and her breath is bearable And her teeth are in good nick.
And she has had no health issues at all, so all in all we will never go back to a processed diet, and are lucky that we have a very good Pet Food Supplier who supplies all except the fish at good prices.
And our "new" Toller puppy will go onto a fresh diet when he is between 10-12 months old.I might start earlier but will have to seek advice from my vet as to whether this is a good idea.
