How do I raw feed correctly?
Our BARF-calculator & guide will help you!

Dear pet owners,

compared to ready-made food, you will always know immediately what you are feeding your four-legged friend, if you start raw feeding according to the BARF-diet. Because, honestly: who can decrypt all feed content declarations without researching the internet for hours and hours?

Certainly it is also necessary for raw feeding to deal with the individual components and to set up a suitable feeding plan for your four-legged friend, so that she or he is optimally supplied. But in the vast majority of cases this is much easier than you might think in the beginning and soon the advantages of species-appropriate raw feeding will dominate.

Tip: If you’re in a hurry or if you are unsure about the composition of the BARF-meals, you can always use our Frostfutter Perleberg BARF-Complete-Menus.

Our BARF-Starter-Packages make it easier for you to start life as a raw feeder.

Also our free requirement calculators will help you at any time to determine the correct fat content, the ideal composition of the fed offal and to dose seaweed meal when compiling healthy and balanced BARF-meals. Simply download the calculators and enter the necessary data.
