- He is the author of Give Your Dog a Bone, Grow Your Pup With Bones, and The BARF Diet. The BARF diet consists of raw meaty bones (such as chicken necks and backs, pork neck bones, turkey necks, and others), eggs, certain dairy products such as cottage cheese or yogurt note that some dogs are allergic to dairy products , raw minced fruits and vegetables, a few supplemental items (such as apple cider vinegar and certain types of oils), and very few if any grains. ...

- Feeding a raw diet can be pretty overwhelming at first. Many do so out of desperation because of their animal’s ongoing health issues, and experience a gamut of emotions about what will happen when they starting feed their animal companions raw food. ... will they die? Will they get really sick? How will I know if they’re doing okay on this diet? What signs do I look for which mean their health is improving? I feed my two Weimaraners a raw food diet, and they are doing great! It was scary, yes -- but when I got sick of seeing Max constantly battling allergies and illnesses, and getting no relief from allopathic medication and kibble (including several of the higher quality kibbles carried at pet stores – I never did try a premium kibble because I switched directly to the raw food diet), I began looking for alternatives. ...
- Dogs' stomach acid is much stronger than ours (for instance, they can digest/dissolve raw – not cooked – bone down to a powder); and food does not stay in their stomachs very long; their digestive tract is much shorter than ours. For these and other reasons, a healthy dog can handle the bacteria in raw food with no problem; even an ill one can under the right conditions and with the right supplement support. This assumes you are transitioning the dog in the proper manner (see one of the recommended books for doing so) and supporting their digestive system at the beginning to minimize changeover responses such as diarrhea. I started Barney (my second Weimaraner, a very ill stray I fostered and then adopted) on raw food at the height of his pneumonia and battle with hookworms. (NOTE: Be sure to research at length or consult with a seasoned raw feeder before attempting this with an ill, debilitated, immune system compromised or older animal. ... I started with very lightly cooked (simmered in water, not fried) turkey and chicken for a few days, with a bit of rice or oatmeal, then added a bit of green beans, then other veggies, and slowly transitioned to completely raw/uncooked food over 7-8 days (meat and minced vegetables, eggs, cottage cheese; with cooked legumes, oatmeal, brown rice, millet, quinoa, barley and/or oat bran for fiber to help cleanse his gastrointestinal tract). And I supported his body with special supplements, probiotics (beneficial intestinal bacteria), food enzymes, and a vitamin/mineral product. Probiotics help the intestinal system reestablish a good colony of the beneficial bacteria, necessary for proper breakdown of food in the intestinal tract. Digestive enzymes (such as amylase, protease, lipase, lactase, and others) break down the food in their stomachs. If your dog or cat has trouble transitioning from one kibble to another, or from kibble to cooked or raw food, feeding supplemental enzymes for a period of time can help their bodies readjust to producing the enzymes needed to digest real food (they can lose that ability when on kibble), and helps all body systems function better. Usually a few weeks of the probiotics and food enzymes is all that’s needed for a healthy dog, then just the probiotic 2 or 3 times a week.
