What is BARFing?

What is BARFing? – Raw Feeding for Dogs & Cats

🐶 The dog is not a wolf – and that's a good thing!

Many pet food manufacturers try to convince us: "Always feed the same food – variety harms the dog!" The opposite is true. The dog has evolved with humans over thousands of years and is more adaptable than a wolf. Its gastrointestinal tract is designed to process variety – different types of meat, vegetables, oils, and supplements.

A dog that always eats the same food becomes more sensitive, not more robust. Variety in diet keeps the gastrointestinal tract stable, strengthens the immune system, and prevents allergies and intolerances. This is not theory – this is nature.

Our approach at Kallisbest: Combine different types of food – raw feeding, dry food, wet food, Die Tolle Rolle – and give your dog the variety he deserves. This makes him more robust, vital, and less susceptible.

What is BARFing?

BARF stands for Biologically Appropriate Raw Food. The idea behind it: dogs and cats are fed in a way that corresponds to their natural diet – with raw meat, offal, and natural supplements.

🐺 Why BARF?

  • ✅ Species-appropriate nutrition without artificial additives
  • ✅ Better digestion & firmer stools
  • ✅ Healthy coat, skin & teeth
  • ✅ More energy & vitality
  • ✅ Ideal for animals with allergies or intolerances
  • ✅ More robust gastrointestinal tract due to variety

How are your croquettes made?

Our kibble is produced in a carefully controlled process – transparent, natural, and without unnecessary additives. The meat comes exclusively from the animal species indicated on the packaging, is minced, gently dried, ground, and mixed with real ingredients (potatoes, rice, vegetables). Completely free of artificial flavors, colorings, or MSG.

Is "cold-pressed" really better?

No – "cold-pressed" is a marketing term without real added value. Cold-pressed dry food undergoes the exact same manufacturing process as regular dry food. A truly "cold" pressing is not technically possible. At Kallisbest, we work without such semantic tricks.

What's behind the "fresh meat trick" of many manufacturers?

Many manufacturers advertise with "70% or 80% fresh meat!" – but fresh meat consists of approx. 70-75% water. After the drying process, only approx. 17-20% of the actual meat content remains. Kallisbest relies on meat meal: For 1 kg of meat meal, approx. 4-5 kg of fresh raw meat are processed – more honest and more nutritious.
