The above statement made by the patron Saint of Animals held very true for me. What a huge impossable thing it was going to be to start feeding all these dogs a Raw diet! BUT after doing what was neccesary and getting organized and feeling comfortable with what I was doing - it became obvious to me that I had made the right choice for my dogs and cats.

With the help of several books, friends that were already feeding BARF to their dogs and the internet, I was able to devise a menu that was comfortable for me to feed to my 4 legged friends.
One of the weirdest things I thought I was doing was becoming friendly with several butchers in my area! You see - I don't even eat meat! But knowing that this is what is biologically appropriate for dogs and cats to eat - I learned to adjust!

I can't emphasize enough how important it is to find a Holistic Veterinarian or an open minded Conventional Veterinarian. They will also be able to give you guidance. Holistic Dr's are by far more knowledgable in feeding BARF. Conventional Dr's were taught in Vet school about nutrition from commercial dog food companies. So unless they are feeding their pets BARF -
they may not be of much help.

When discussing BARF with a Conventional Vet, be prepared with as much knowledge as you can find about the BARF diet. The more that Conventional Vet's learn about feeding BARF to companion animals - the better off our companion animals will be! They will learn that we can reverse disease through proper nutrition and without the use of dangerous drugs that only make matters worse in the long run.

Your dogs and cats can be healthy and disease free!
It will just take some old fasioned WORK!
Arn't our friends who give us their all worth it?, I certainly think so.
