Is the BARF Diet concept the "return your pet to nature" diet?
NO - The BARF Diet is NOT suggesting or attempting to suggest that you return your pets to nature!
The natural environment can be dangerous. It includes lack of shelter, lack of medical and surgical intervention, the possibility of starvation and the danger of injury or death from many quarters, particularly from other animals, including those animals hunted for food.We will continue to keep our pets in an artificial environment, that includes regular bathing and grooming, training, shelter, love, regular flea and worming treatments, vaccination and medical and surgical intervention when required.
The only part of the environment we wish to become more natural is the food, though of course we shouldn't expect our pets to hunt for it. We shall begin to provide our pets with the type of food for which their body was designed. Food that is raw and whole and in the same form, balance and amount, as they would have received in their natural environment.
