Want your dog to be around as long as possible ?
B.A.R.F :
BIOLOGICALLY APPROPRIATE RAW FOOD
A Thread 🧵⬇️
First what are my qualification to speak on this? Grew up training schutzhund & ring sport w/some of the best trainers & dog men in the northeast. I’m not a Vet so take that into accounts I’ve also implemented this diet with all my dogs w/ great success

As a kid I worked for a Shepard Breeder & Dog Trainer. What I quickly noticed was that none of his dogs ate dog-food. They ate raw chicken backs, leaf lard, soft bones & occasional puréed vegetables. The result? They lived about twice as long as they were supposed to 🤔

Why 1)Dogs are not designed to eat highly processed dead kibble 2)The lynch pin of a dogs health is their teeth-once this goes they are very susceptible to endocarditis & from here it often goes down hill quickly. Eating a diet high in raw bones keeps dental health optimal

My dog Ike is 6 his teeth look about as good as you can hope for his age. Never had a cleaning.
If your dog has high amounts of tarter you need to get that addressed ASAP
Also f’k greenies and all that plastic teeth cleaning crap (don’t need study to know that poison)
