About

Our hand-made "Give a Dog a Bone" & "Cat of the Day" raw food combines fresh raw meat & bones, veg, fruit, & herbs. Your pets will love it & thrive on it

Description

We are a family who love our animals. We currently own two Bullmastiffs, Mojo and Kaesha.

We have had experience in earlier years of a dog who had continual health problems. Her life was literally saved by switching her from an extremely expensive kibble /pellet dog food to the raw, real food diet.

We became fascinated with this diet, and read everything we could get our hands on. Everything we read confirmed our experience that natural feeding made for happy healthy dogs and cats. So, when we got to getting our dogs, we wanted to start off right.

We have been feeding Kaesha and Mojo on food which combines raw meaty bones, vegetables, fruit, and herbs since we got them. The result is two healthy, happy dogs with silky coats, white teeth, clean breath, and fantastic natures!

Mission

Feeding Your Pet The Natural Way

In the 1930s, the natural pet rearing movement was started by herbalist J. de Bairacli Levy who promoted a diet of raw food for dogs and cats. In 1993 Dr Ian Billinghurst revolutionised the way people were thinking about pet food, taking us back to Nature. Both Billinghurst, and Dr Tom Lonsdale (2001) researched the diet of wolves and wild dogs and showed us that the natural meal plan of our dogs’ ancestors can help us to keep our beloved pets as happy and healthy as they were meant to be.

Biologically Appropriate Raw Food (BARF) is Dr. Billinghurst’s name for the diet he proposed. The basic philosophy is that optimal pet health will only be obtained if we mimic the foods that our pets would eat in nature.

Dogs and cats both feed on whole carcasses -meat, bones, offal, and the stomach contents of the prey (vegetable matter). Wild puppies eat a variety of food including soil, grass, stomach contents of prey, raw meat, bones, offal, vegetables, fruit, berries, insects, bark, roots, faeces. And they never cook!
