Someone once asked me, “Why don’t I make my own BARF type meals for my dogs?”. That’s a good question, and time permitting, I probably would. But this is also not so cheap. One still has to buy fresh raw meats from the butchers, fresh vegetables and fruits, that one would have to sacrifice toward the dogs, and set aside extra time in putting it altogether. Buying BARF patties ends up still being a cheaper alternative, at least for me anyway, and yet still not cheap.
