Helping You Nurture Your Furry Loved Ones From The Inside Out
Hi, I’m Barbara! 👩💻
It’s nice to e-meet you!
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 Do You Learn As Much As Possible About Raw Feeding?
You’ve probably heard that raw dog food is a powerful tool that can drastically improve your dog’s health and cut your vet bills in half.
And that’s true.
I mean, dogs are born with sharp teeth and acidic stomach juices for a reason:
To eat and digest raw meat.
Including pliable bones.
Not dry pieces of boring, baked dog food.
Sounds like a pretty straight-forward concept, right?
But raw feeding involves a bit more than just tossing your dog a steak and some liver.
So I went ahead and created my free newsletter where I share all things raw dog food related in bite-sized, weekly pieces.
As a newsletter reader, that means you get to peek into my raw dog food bowls for recipe inspiration, learn about ingredient rotation, and pick up helpful tips & hacks on your journey to nourishing your pup from the inside out.
You also get personal access to my raw dog food brain with any questions that keep you up at night…
…and yea, I know, I should probably start charging for that service at some point.
