BARF ..... again!
« on: July 05, 2006, 09:20:47 PM »
I know there's been a lot of debate on here recently (some heated!!!) about the pros and cons of a BARF or home prepared diet, so just thought I'd mention that Dogs Today magazine are doing a 2 part feature on natural feeding -vs- commercial foods.  I've read the first part of the feature and it's pretty informative and covers a lot of the points that have recently been discussed.  It (so far) isn't biased one way or the other and their features are normally really interesting.  Starts with the current (August) issue.

There's also a letter in the postbag from a certain Gill with Disney...... :shades:

 It (so far) isn't biased one way or the other

That's most unusual for Beverley Cuddy & co  :-\


Good for you Gill getting Disney's photo printed, but I won't be buying it, as you can probably tell I can't stand the woman. >:(
