I’ve helped hundreds of people learn how to make DIY raw dog food
Hi, I’m Barbara! 👩💻
I’m the crazy dog mom who found out about raw dog food back in 2015.
Ever since, I’ve been documenting my raw dog food journey here on the blog, paired with my second passion of doggie exercise & travel.
The raw dog food part included trial and error in:
- Figuring out dog allergies
- Learning how to make my own raw meals to keep them affordable
- Becoming raw dog food nutrition certified by Dogs Naturally Magazine
With that said, my Boxer mixes Missy & Buzz introduced me to raw dog food.
If it wasn’t for them and specifically for Missy’s cancer diagnosis back in 2014, I’m not sure I would have made the switch from kibble to raw.
As one of my lovely readers recently put it:
“God bless Missy so much, our teacher, she got this journey rolling, we thank her.”
How You Can Learn From Me
Raw dog food is a powerful tool that can help improve your dog’s health.
But without the right formula and math for your particular pup, you may end up doing it wrong.
💡Use my homemade raw dog food blog section and my ebook store to dive into everything I’ve learned about raw feeding since 2015.
Or book a DIY raw dog food coaching session with me here.
