The Truth About Pet Food: Why (And How) I Feed My Pets Raw

In this episode of  The Gubba Podcast , we’re tackling a hot topic in the pet world— raw feeding!  I’m sharing my journey of switching my pets to a  Biologically Appropriate Raw Food (BARF) diet  and how it has completely transformed their health. We’ll explore the  history of kibble  and why it became the go-to pet food despite its harmful effects, plus the  corporate ties between big pet food brands and the veterinary industry  that keep raw feeding from going mainstream. I’ll also break down the  benefits of raw diets , how to transition your pets safely, and tips on sourcing  affordable, high-quality raw ingredients  (including my best butcher hacks!). If you’ve ever wondered:🐾 Is kibble really bad for pets?🐾 What exactly is the BARF model of raw feeding?🐾 How do I start feeding raw without breaking the bank?🐾 Are raw bones safe?🐾 Why don’t vets recommend raw diets? Then this episode is for you! I’ll also share my  personal experience , what’s worked for my pets, and how you can  ditch the processed junk  for a more natural, nourishing way of feeding. Tune in and let’s talk about why our pets deserve  better than kibble!  🐕🐾 Read and learn more about this episode and others at Gubba Homestead Podcast Follow Gubba Homestead on Instagram | Facebook | X | Pinterest Shop Gubba Homestead Products
