I don't feed BARF but I believe it's the best diet for your dog. (I think I don't have time.)

Dogs have short digestive systems--their guts are about 6-1/2' long. This means food doesn't stay in their systems long, so the chances of them getting ill from food are less than for us (w/ our 15' guts).

Also, BARF uses human-grade meats. BARF people handle the meat they feed their dogs with the same care they handle the meat they eat.

If you have no hesitation nor concerns giving your puppy raw beef marrow bones, why the concern about possible bacteria in BARF???

Ditch the Pedigree--it's not very good food at all.
