Raw feeding, otherwise known as BARF stands for Biologically Appropriate Raw Food. It’s a method of feeding raw meat and vegetables to your dog or cat.
Raw feeding has become increasingly popular in recent years. Because of poor pet food production and allergies, intolerances and modern diseases, many pet owners have been switching to fresh food preparation for their dogs.
Why add supplements?
Meat, bones, and offal contain most of the nutrients the dog or cat needs. However, compared to “fresh” prey, your pet will not get them in sufficient quantities if you buy the base ingredients frozen or even fresh from the butchers. Blood, for example, is almost completely absent in meat you can buy.
If you start comparing the many suppliers of supplements for raw feeding, you will notice quickly that not all of these products are 100% natural or in line with the ideals of raw feeding, many are synthetic.
At AniForte, we believe that nature has the answers to many health problems in our pets. That’s why we specialise in developing supplements for raw feeding that are 100% natural and without any addition of synthetic ingredients or flavours. They all adhere to the latest scientific standards.
Here are the basic supplements for raw feeding we offer:
For your dog:
Barf Complete for Dogs - Assures alongside a balanced diet all nutritional needs are met
Eggshell Powder or Ground Beef Bones - Can be added if your dogs doesn't have or can't have bone in their diet

Adding the right supplements to a raw feeding diet can be highly beneficial—or even essential—for your pet’s health. These supplements support a balanced metabolism and help prevent potential nutrient deficiencies, especially during times when your dog has higher nutritional needs. In fact, a targeted diet can help manage specific symptoms and even prevent secondary health issues from arising. Supplements are also a proactive measure to keep your pet in top health.
Key situations when your dog may benefit from extra nutrients include:
- High activity levels
- Illness or recovery
- Seasonal coat changes
- Growth stages in puppies
- Pregnancy or lactation
- Increased stress (e.g., moving or travel)
- Food or diet changes
