Grow Your Pups with Bones
By Dr Ian Billinghurst 405 Pages - Paperback Grow Your Pups With Bones is the second book in a series dealing with feeding companion animals for maximum health.
The basic theme of this book, the BARF diet, has been inspired by the continuing observation that companion animals ate much better when fed their biologically appropriate diet based on Bone and Raw Foods.
The first book in this series – Give your Dog a Bone – contains important background material and where possible should be read first. The mission of Grow Your Pups With Bones is firstly, to show the dog owning fraternity how easy it is to produce healthy pups without the losses, headaches, and heartaches so many breeders experience, and secondly, how easy it is to grow those pups into healthy adults with a sound skeletal system.
Grow Your Pups with Bones is divided into three parts. The first part introduces the Bones and Raw Food (BARF) diet for feeding dogs. This method of feeding dogs is the very heart of Grow Your Pups With Bone. It is based on the dietary needs of dogs as shaped by several hundred thousand years of evolution. Contents of Part 1 - The bones and Raw Food (‘BARF’) Programme: What is the ‘BARF’ diet? Is the ‘BARF’ diet suitable for growing and breeding dogs?

It details the practical common sense approach to producing an optimum number of healthy pups with a minimum of fuss. The BARF diet is central to this pup-producing programme.

Central to this third part of the book is the BARF programme of diet and exercise.

Dr. Billinghurst's most important and internationally influential piece of writing is the book “Give Your Dog a Bone.” Because cats and dogs have different food requirements, (cats are obligate carnivores while dogs are omnivores with a carnivorous background), he decided they each needed their own book, and that he would write the dog book first. Thus was born “Give Your Dog a Bone.” Launched 15 years ago at a 3 day Bichon Frise conference in western Sydney on the 17th November 1993 and was advertised in all the canine breeder magazines throughout Australia. “Give Your Dog a Bone” proved an instant hit, with many breeders adopting its ideas. Since that time it has been making steady inroads into the minds of breeders and dog owners throughout Australia and overseas. To date nearly fifty thousand copies of this book have been sold. “Give Your Dog a Bone” is the book that began the worldwide BARF dietary revolution for pets and remains 'the book' to read on the subject of BARF. It remains the practical common sense way to feed any dog for a long healthy life. Some say that “Give Your Dog a Bone” has become their “Bible.” "Give Your Dog a Bone" is essential background reading for Dr. Billinghurst's second book “Grow Your Pups With Bones.”
