for CatsNutrient-Rich Delicacy: Beef Heart
Beef hearts are not only particularly tasty for dogs and cats but also rich in valuable nutrients such as iron, potassium, sodium, and vitamins A, B, and D. As a robust muscle, beef hearts contain many proteins, fats, and vitamins found in muscle meat. However, due to its high purine content and anatomical location, it is considered an organ and should be fed as such in a BARF diet.
Versatile and Easily Digestible for Dogs & Cats
Our ground beef heart is suitable for dogs and cats of all ages and sizes. It is particularly well tolerated – both for active pets and for dogs with sensitive stomachs. The easily digestible proteins and healthy fats provide natural energy and promote vitality.
Beef Heart: An Essential Component of BARF Organs
Organs are an important component of the BARF diet as they contain many essential nutrients. Heart, liver, kidney, lungs, and spleen are among the most important organs and should be fed in a balanced ratio. With our free Organ Calculator, you can easily determine the right composition for the optimal supply of your pet.
Instructions for Using the Organ Calculator

Feeding recommendation
For a balanced BARF diet for adult healthy dogs, we recommend a feeding composition of 80 % animal and 20 % plant-based components. The animal portion should be divided into 50 % muscle meat, 20 % tripe and omasum, 15 % offal, and 15 % raw meaty bones (RMB). The plant-based portion usually consists of 75 % vegetables and 25 % fruit.
Tip: To accurately calculate your dog's BARF rations, you can use our free BARF calculator. Simply enter your dog's data and receive balanced daily and weekly rations within seconds.
For adult healthy cats, the animal portion of BARF rations should be 95 %, consisting of approximately 65 % muscle meat, heart, fat, and blood, as well as 15 % raw meaty bones and offal. The remaining 5 % consists of fiber-rich vegetables such as carrots or pumpkin.
We recommend dividing the total food amount into at least two meals per day and supplementing with essential nutrients such as omega-3-6-9 oil or salmon oil, as well as seaweed meal and, if necessary, cod liver oil.
All our BARF products should be stored at -18 °C in the freezer and thawed in the refrigerator for approx. 12 hours before feeding, either without packaging or with sufficient air holes. Serve at room temperature.

The BARF pyramid
BARF pyramid for dogs
The BARF pyramid shown alongside illustrates how BARF meals can be structured for a healthy, adult dog. As a general rule, rations consist of 80 % animal and 20 % plant-based components, although not all elements need to be fed every single day. Feeding sick dogs or those with intolerances may look completely different. Therefore, the illustration should be seen as a general guideline only. Our nutrition experts are happy to help you with any questions about the right BARF ration for your four-legged friend.
BARF pyramid for cats
The BARF pyramid shown here illustrates how a balanced BARF meal for a healthy, adult cat can be structured. However, it serves only as a rough guideline, as the composition can vary significantly depending on your cat's tolerance, acceptance, and individual needs. A BARF ration typically consists of 95% animal-based and 5% plant-based ingredients. Heart is considered muscle meat and should make up a maximum of 20% of the total ration. Offal includes, among other things, stomach and liver, as well as – depending on the cat's preferences – spleen, kidney, and lung. Suitable meaty bones include, for example, chicken necks, while breastbone is unsuitable for cats.
