Cottage cheese can be a reliable source of protein when feeding a BARF diet. Among other things, this protein supports muscle building in your four-legged friend's body. Cottage cheese also contains calcium, which can have a positive effect on bones, cartilage and joints. Cottage cheese is also suitable as a low-calorie supplement to the food when feeding a BARF diet.
So do you spread a little cottage cheese on every portion of your BARF dog food ? Not really. Better to use dog chews or small snacks that your four-legged friends receive as a reward. This way you can complement the benefits of cottage cheese in BARF with the benefits of chews. Due to the longer chewing process, the cheese sticks stimulate saliva flow, which in turn can have a positive effect on the mouth and digestion. In addition, the relatively hard food can partially remove food residue between the teeth.
Dairy products are very popular in BARF because they are a natural source of calcium and protein. The grainy cottage cheese fits perfectly into our BARF shop - at least in the form of the cottage cheese sticks and the cottage cheese dental power crackers. Just make sure that your animal is not lactose intolerant. In that case, you will obviously have to avoid dairy products in BARF. Otherwise, your furry friend can enjoy all the benefits without any worries.
