The high moisture content in BARF food is an important advantage of raw meat feeding. While our four-legged friends usually only absorb around ten percent moisture from traditional dry food, the moisture content in BARF is often up to 80 percent. Moisture is extremely important for dogs and cats, after all, their organism is made up of around 70 percent water. If our furry companions only absorb ten percent moisture from their food, they automatically become dehydrated and need to be balanced out. The need for pure water for your dogs and cats increases accordingly.
Of course, our four-legged friends also absorb a large amount of moisture when they drink. With BARF, you are simply supporting your animals in this process, so that a bowl full of water is less noticeable. Take a look around our BARF shop . We have provided BARF meat as well as plant-based products, such as fruit and vegetables for dogs , with a percentage of the moisture they contain. With BARF, you can pay attention to how much liquid the products contain. You can also use our BARF calculator to help you put together a balanced meal for your four-legged friend.
