Most vets do not agree with raw feeding based on a number of reasons: 1) Raw food is made from poor quality ingredients like meat dust. 2) They are worried about bacteria in raw food. 3) There is no nutritional testing. 4) They are worried about Trichinosis and also pork Tapeworms. Coco & Joe BARF diet is made from the freshest human grade ingredients. We do not use meat dust or low quality meat. This will lower the chances of any bacteria contamination. Moreover, we freeze our raw diet at negative 20 degrees celcius to kill off live bacteria and parasites. Dogs’ stomach acids can deal with the residue bacteria. Other than that, we do not use raw pork in our recipes as pork may contain pork tapeworms. Coco & Joe BARF diet is nutritionally tested and we have tested our recipes on many dogs and cats over the past 20 years.
