The raw food diet is becoming more and more popular these days, as there are more dog food recalls released every time you turn around, so when you opt to feed your dog a raw diet, you know what your dog is eating.
The BARF diet, is a Bones And Raw Food Diet, that essentially brings dogs back to their roots of raw meats. The problem is that domestic dogs are not like wild wolves and wild canines; their dietary needs have changed a little.
If you opt to feed your dog on a raw diet, you want to make sure that you follow the components of a raw food diet carefully, so that you ensure that your dog is getting all of the nutrients that he/she needs.
BARF: Bones And Raw Food Diet
Components of a Raw Food Diet (BARF Diet)
I have seen Pit Bull owners use the BARF diet and swear that their dogs are healthier than any other dog on the block. But, those that I've met are in denial, as their dogs are super skinny and malnourished. The raw diet can be very healthy and nutritious, but only if you do it right.
If your dog is losing weight, you need to evaluate the situation.
Don't let your Pit Bull become skin and bones because you're in denial that there's anything wrong. Just because you think you're doing good by getting the bones and leftovers from the butchers, that doesn't mean that is going to be sufficient for your dog's daily needs.
