We have been raw feeding our team of dogs for close to 30 years. The benefits include health and longevity as well as keeping the costs down compared to a diet consisting of commercially prepared dog food. More about us below.
A Biologically Appropriate Raw Foods diet (BARF) diet is a raw diet including vegetables and fruits. A BARF diet for dogs consists of 70% muscle meat, 10% raw edible bone, 5% liver, 5% other secreting organ, 7% vegetables, and 3% fruit.
A Prey Model Raw (PMR) diet for dogs consists of 80% muscle meat, 10% raw edible bone, 5% liver, and 5% other secreting organ.
It is a good idea to feed a variety of food. A balanced diet can be achieved by averaging out the meat/bone etc ratio over a week.
Benefits of feeding your pets raw food include: No preservatives, colours or artificial additives. Highly digestible. Improved teeth, oral health & breath . Improved digestion. Stronger immune system. Leaner body mass. Shinier coats. Increased vitality. Smaller stools. Less smell. Stronger immune systems
Biologically available calcium in the form of bone helps with the dogโs bone and tooth health.
Diets high in appropriate Omega-3s and Omega-6s nourish the brain
A natural, fresh meaty diet has very digestible nutrients that are readily absorbed by petsโ intestines. Natural meat contains raw enzymes that aid digestive health.
Protein is an essential building-block of healthy tissue. A natural meaty diet contains a wealth of high-quality proteins to support vitality and premium nutrition that promotes optimal muscle growth and efficient tissue repair.
Commercial pet diets can contain fillers that are not needed by cats or dogs. A digestible, nutritious raw diet high in moisture instead of unnecessary fillers are digested more efficiently.
You can custom make your dogsโ diets to suit their activity level, age, health problems and specific nutritional requirements.

About us...
We've always had a keen interest in feeding our family healthy food. This extends to our 4 legged family so we started experimenting with raw feeding our dogs around 1986 when we got the first of our Bull Terriers.
Back then we โtook onโ a bitch that had terrible skin issues as a result of a systemic secondary infection to see if we could help. It was a tall order although we eventually got her down to minimal veterinary intervention with the help of a natural diet, a controlled environment (cotton bedding etc) and regular washes.
It was the start of our mission to look after the dogs as naturally as possible, and since that time weโve tried all sorts of raw food in all sorts of different combinations. The adults were always fed raw only, but it took a little longer to make a weaning mix that we were happy would be a complete food for our baby puppies.
Our dogs maintain prime condition on their raw diet (along with regular exercise) and we can boast that we have our 50th show champion on the way as well as 50 Bull Terrier Club Best in show awards over the years. If you are interested in our dogs, this is the website dedicated to them www.bullterrier.co.nz
We are selling product that has been sourced from trusted suppliers at MPI approved facilities and Hydeโs Pet Food is listed with MPI.
