Raw feeding,
written by people who actually do it.

How we write these guides

Every article on the site goes through the same process. We start from primary sources: peer-reviewed veterinary nutrition papers, the Raw Feeding Veterinary Society's published positions, the National Research Council nutrient profiles for dogs, and the BARF framework as Dr. Ian Billinghurst originally laid it out. We then check the claim against what raw feeders actually run into in practice, because the academic answer and the kitchen-counter answer do not always line up.

Where the raw feeding community disagrees (vegetables in the bowl, grinding bones for seniors, supplement stacks), we say so and lay out both sides instead of pretending there is one settled answer. Every post carries the date it was published and the date it was last reviewed, so you can see whether the information is current. If you spot a calculation error or a citation that needs updating, the contact page is the fastest way to reach us.
