The Truth of Harmful Bacteria In Raw Dog Food
As a Raw Pet Food Specialist, I often hear the misconception that feeding a raw meat diet can be potentially harmful to pets. This is actually a very common myth in the raw pet food industry. This is especially true for BARF® World products.
The Truth of Harmful Bacteria In Raw Dog Food
As a Raw Pet Food Specialist, I often hear the misconception that feeding a raw meat diet can be potentially harmful to pets. This is actually a very common myth in the raw pet food industry. This is especially true for BARF® World products.
All of BARF® Worlds diets go through an HPP process to eliminate these harmful bacterias, making it safe to feed your pet. Believe it or not, our raw meat diets contain less bacteria then the meat you would find at your local butcher. It also does not alter the taste or smell, to ensure the highest quality of raw meat for your pet.
Some of the harmful bacterias that this process helps eliminate includes:
- E. Coli
- Salmonella
- Listeria
- Yersinia
When handling raw meat, we recommend handling this just like you would handle raw meat you get at the grocery store. All of our raw meat is the same quality meat that we consume and is USDA grade.
We also have had customers address their concerns about feeding raw around small children in their household. We recommend washing your hands and kitchen surfaces to avoid the spread of bacteria. Remember to clean cutting boards, counter tops and utensils with hot soapy water after feeding,handling or preparing raw food. We also offer Freeze-Dried Nuggets that are easier to handle in comparison to the frozen. They are also shelf-stable and will not need to be stored in your freezer.

The HPP process has been extremely beneficial to providing the best quality raw diets on the market. Here at BARF® World we strive to carry the best quality raw meat for pets that meets FDA and AAFCO standards. To read this full article visit:
