While I agree with the content I do not feel this diet is for everyone. It does take wok, it does make more mess and you do have to think, these are things I also feel, are within everyones caperbility. I don't like the attitude that as educated people we as dog owners will suddenly start wiping the blood and viscera of animals over work tops and not bother to clean it. Clean means clean, not germ free. At the raw feeding groups there are thousands of people feeding dogs a raw diet of some kind or other, and thety are not replacing their animals very 2 years due to some devistating infection.
I cannot answer if the actual content of the diet is any better, I know what my beliefs are and I also see many many beautiful dogs doing well on a variety of comercial food. That debate will go on for many moons to come but using the scare tactic of bacteria is as usefull as finding out what they spray on the kibble to get dogs to eat it.
The prey model suit us, and more inportantly our pets in our house, however if they had never had a prey model and continued on there quality kibble I would not have beat myself up over it .
Now when you say BARF do you mean BARF as it is meant of Raw feed. There is a huge difference that you may wish to read up on.
