I worry about the B A R F diet also, my concerns would be the chance of Bella getting Salmonella or E Coli…
Yes,I also read today that E coli is the main responsable of diarrhea of children in our countries, so we just limit the risks here so meat as really to be cooked even for dogs.
If Bella or any other dog have some intestinal trouble give them a piece of burned wood, I learned it from my Mix groenadael, when she was young I saw her eating burned wood when she had some kind of diarrhea, and I also read that it absorbs toxine or poison. I gave a very small piece of it to Daysie when she came for her stomac.
Today I find some dry food for Daysie and her sister, they both taste one of them, Daysie and Maya eat some, but I also put some in their meal and they didn't like it both.
So I will try this evening to leave some in plates ans see how much they 'll eat, my big one use to eat in the night.
If they eat enough I will reduce rice in their meal .I will go on with meat and vegetables.
So I bought some Purina bakers complete 6 weeks 24 months for Daysie
and Maya has the same for adult dog, it's very expensive but if it's good for both of them it's good for me too.
The trouble is that we don't always find the same.
