Well I'm treading a toe in the BARF direction too.
I bought a bag of the Natures Menu minced lamb.
Since Wednesday dinner time, I've been feeding Vahri and Ruffy the raw mince with a kinda carrot, brocolli, cauliflower soup (raw ofcourse) for dinner with kibble for brekkie.
I just wanted to introduce it gradually - bearing in mind Ruffy's dodgy digestive system.
I can say this - so far - it's gone down a storm, the dinner bowls are licked from one end of the house to the other, and with the risk of too much detail - Ruffy's poohs are the firmest they have ever been.
Think we will be going the whole hog very shortly.
