Pignut 4 Posted June 14, 2008 Report Share Posted June 14, 2008 (edited) I have three dogs:- 1. Patt bitch (spayed 2 yr old) prone to put on weight - 1 meal a day 2. Patt dog (castrated ? yr old) always thin and hard - 1 meal a day 3. Lurcher dog (castrated 13 yr old) prone to losing weight - on 2 meals a day and... 4. 2 x Cats (castrated boys) who hunt in the summer and want food in the winter! I have access to slaughtered sheep and sometimes cow and mackerel and herring and my freezer is full of lamb necks, ribs, lights. etc. So, I have read the Barf site and like the idea - it all makes good sense really. What ratio of veg to meat? Is the vet cut up and raw or pre-cooked. What about cereals - do you use rice (cooked)? Fish ? raw with bones? Any help appreciated. Cheers Pignut Edited to say I have just found out abit more about this BARF thing and answered my own questions!! Doesn't cover fish really - can you give that raw?
