Dr. Tom Lonsdale, along with two other Australian Veterinarians, have been promoting the benefits of raw, meaty bones in a pet's diet since the early 90s. This site contains many articles explaining those benefits, as well as information on switching your pet to raw food.

Interesting articles and newsletters reviewing the BARF diet, who many think is synonymous with raw dog food diets. Dr. Lonsdale's Raw Meaty Bones diet differs from the BARF in a basic way. Raw Meaty Bones is based on dogs, cats, and ferrets being carnivores (meat eaters) while the BARF diet is based on those animals being Omnivores (meat, vegetables and fruit).
