Louise Chapman, the company\’s Director of Product Management, is confident the new range will be a hit with dog owners throughout the UK. Louise says,” As more pet owners are moving away from overly processed foods and finding out about grain free alternatives a great deal stumble across raw feeding but really don\’t know where to start or how to feed the diet safely.”

That\’s where West Fife Raw Feeds come in. They have been raw feeding their own cats and dogs BARF for quite some time and have fully researched the benefits and drawbacks of the diet. “We know the importance of ensuring a varied and balanced diet is fed to make sure that your dogs are getting all the nutrients needed from their food and the health risks that can arise if they don\’t.” states Louise

The company are very keen to dispel the myths surrounding raw food and some current advice that home-made pet foods aren\’t as nutritionally balanced as the complete foods available in pet shops and veterinary surgeries. “It is true that by not feeding a balanced diet that nutritional deficiencies can happen, which can cause long term health issues,” Louise admits,” however ensuring that wide range of food is given, a good mix of different meats along with offal and bones provides more than enough protein, fat, vitamins and minerals to keep your dog healthy.”

“That is why we developed our starter boxes,”Louise continues, ”some people just aren\’t sure of the best way to start feeding raw and can find the information out there to be conflicting and confusing.”

West Fife Raw Feeds have done all the hard work for you. They\’ve developed a transition menu that introduces new foods slowly over 5 weeks and each starter box will have enough food to cover the transition period. In addition to this every person that orders a starter box is emailed a PDF copy of their e-book, A Quick Start Guide to Raw Feeding written by Louise, along with their transition menu plan and a monitoring sheet so owners can keep check of their dogs health and the foods their dog likes and can eat.

“Our BARF Starter Boxes are the perfect combination of food and knowledge to get even the most nervous of dog owners feeding a wholesome, fresh and natural diet.”
