Get The Facts

Veterinarian Approved

Farm Life Blend are veterinarian approved. We regularly work with veterinarians in the development, testing and evaluation of our Farm Life Blends.

It is important to understand however that not all veterinarians are totally familiar with the benefits of the raw diet for dogs and cats. Unfortunately most Veterinarian Colleges offer few if any of their course curriculum in animal nutrition and rather focus primarily on the diagnosis and treatment of medical problems. Once detected the normal protocol is treatment through pharmaceuticals or surgical procedures.

It is a proven fact that over 90% of all disease in animals has to do with a poor diet. Our approach is preventive believing that given a proper nutritional foundation the body is best suited to prevent and heal most medical conditions.

Concerned About Salmonella, E-Coli and Parasites?

The digestive system of dogs and cats are much shorter and far more acidic than that of humans and are well prepared to handle bacteria. This is why dogs and cats are not as susceptible to salmonella, e-coli and parasites in the same way as humans.

Bacteria is not a problem for a pet with a strong immune system

Is Feeding Raw More Expensive?

In order to answer this we must first ask “More Expensive in Comparison to What?”.

Most commercial pet foods available in Grocery and Pet “Super Stores” are focused on price, attractive point of sale packaging and catchy marketing phrases to capture our attention. Most of these pet foods contain a substantial amount of fillers, grains and dyes to enhance their color and appearance. Many of the commercially available raw food diets for pet are made from scraps, trimmings discarded from human grade products. All of this is done to achieve a lower price point or higher profit margins.

We generally find that in comparison to high quality kibble or canned foods, feeding raw is not much more expensive than the way you feed today. In addition due to a healthier diet you will generally find that your pet will require fewer expensive appointments with the vet which is an important factor to be considered.
