Fish heads

BARF refers to Biologically Appropriate Raw food or Bones and Raw Food. It is where owners have decided to feed their Schnauzer a natural diet of raw meat, bones, and organs. If you are considering this for your Schnauzer, you will find lots of handy tips here.

Fish heads

Post by Wagsie »

H/b just came home with a whole fresh salmon from the supermarket, complete with head :ymsick: he's cut that off and cut it into two, read on here you can give fish heads, do we just give it to them as a meal? Should we give anything else with it?

Boy this is a learning curve lol

Just weigh it so you have an idea of how much of a meal it is whether they need anything else. If it hasn't been gutted they can have all that as well. They need 2-3% of their body weight per day. Give them it outside to avoid fishy smell everywhere. I made the mistake of letting Barney have a raw sardine in the kitchen once and only once :ymsick:
