Your pet needs protein, fat, and carbohydrates. They also need calcium and essential fatty acids. Your pet needs protein, animal meat, seafood, dairy, or eggs, fat from meat or oil and carbohydrates, grains or vegetables. They also need calcium from dairy or an ingredient such as egg shells, and essential fatty acids from certain plant oils, egg yolks, oatmeal, and other foods. Cook all animal products to kill bacteria that could make your pooch sick. Cook grains, beans, and starchy vegetables to make them easier to digest. Never add foods that are toxic to dogs. These include chocolate, grapes, raisins, onions, garlic, avocados, and Macadamia nuts. Even the best recipes often don’t provide enough of certain nutrients, such as calcium. Your pup needs supplements if you’re feeding them from scratch.

Homemade dog food is easy to make with ground turkey, rice, and vegetables. You can also add it to their kibble. The original recipe yields 5 servings and includes 1 pound ground turkey, 6 cups water, 2 cups brown rice, 1 teaspoon dried rosemary, and ½ (16 ounce) package frozen broccoli, carrots and cauliflower combination. Place ground turkey, water, rice, and rosemary into a large Dutch oven. Add frozen vegetables, and cook for an additional 5 minutes. My dogs are large breed so they get 2 cups in the a.m. and p.m.

Dogs have different nutrient requirements than humans for their proportional body size, such as: High-quality protein (meat, seafood, dairy or eggs) Fat (meat or oil) Carbohydrates (grains or vegetables) Calcium (dairy) Essential fatty acids (egg yolks or oatmeal). This recipe here has a balance of 50% protein, 25% veggies and 25% grains, but the ratios can easily be adjusted to suit your pup’s breed and/or needs. I have been so amazed as to how many different kinds of vegetables dogs can have. High-quality protein can come from meat, seafood, dairy or eggs. Essential fatty acids can be found in egg yolks or oatmeal. Carbohydrates can come from grains or vegetables. Calcium can be obtained from dairy.
