What is raw feeding?

Raw feeding – otherwise known as biologically appropriate raw feeding (BARF) – is an approach to animal nutrition that involves feeding dogs and cats according to what is naturally beneficial to their health. This means raw, biologically appropriate ingredients without a grain or pellet in sight.

At Nutriment, we wholeheartedly believe that raw feeding is the absolute best way to support your dog’s health. By feeding your dog what they are naturally designed to consume, you are optimising their bodily functions which has a great impact on their well-being and vitality.

Is raw dog food better than kibble?

At Nutriment, we believe that fresh, real, whole raw ingredients are always going to be better than highly processed and preserved foods. This applies to humans and dogs alike. Your dog will surely love to eat our recipes.

Do vets recommend a raw diet for dogs?

Some vets may be against a raw diet, however, there are also many vets who recommend raw diets. This is due to the fact that they can help control weight, tackle allergies, improve oral health, aid in digestive issue management and much more. The Raw Feeding Veterinary Society has many resources for vets and owners, if you wish to know more.
