Raw Links
A Critique of BARF - www.burns-pet-nutrition.co.uk/BARF_Raw_Food_Diet.htm
An explanation of feeding raw - www.ggbtc.org/ggbtcHealth.html
Pictorial Raw How-To pages
Books www.barfers.com
or www.barfworld.com
 | Give Your Dog A Bone, Dr. Ian Billinghurst - my pick if you are going to
buy one. It's not easy to read, but the information is there. |
| Grow Your Pup With Bones, Dr Ian Billinghurst - my pick for starting a
puppy, also hard to read, not organized, but the raw data is there |
| The BARF Diet, Dr Ian Billinghurst - if you've bought the others, buy this
one. He changes some of the ratios and now is selling his own products
(he's entitled). But my problem with this book is that it doesn't give
you the details of the diet, just the summary. |
| Switching to Raw, Sue Johnson - good if you like workbooks as guidelines |
| The Ultimate Diet, Kymyth Shultz - same as Dr B with too much emphasis on
grains. That may work for your breeds, but mine were bred by people
who didn't have access to grains, they wouldn't have been feeding them to
their dogs. |
| The Veterinarians Guide to Natural Remedies for Dogs, Martin Zucker.
Uses a lot of information for current practicing homeopathic vets.
Emphasis is on cooking and grains -- neither of which I think are
appropriate to sleddogs who evolved in the artic. |
| Volhard - cooking and grains |
| Fats that Kill |
| Raw Feeding Made Easy, dogwise.com -- GREAT starter book |
| Monica Segal's K9 Kitchen, for a detailed spreadsheet approach to feeding
raw |
Email Lists
These are uniformly helpful, informative & GENTLE lists which will help you make the
transition and support you as needed. No stridency, no witch hunts, and no
public lynchings for daring to mention the K word (kibble) or gradually changing
over. Doubts on these lists are not vilified, they are accepted and dealt
with.

Next... no, you're done. Go buy the books, get off your duff, and go to
the grocery store!
