Homemade Dog Food

Basic Diet for Dogs

Some of the ingredients. 

3 large hard boiled eggs (or 1/3lb chicken, beef, turkey, other meat)
2 cups long grain rice (dogs digest white easier than brown)
2 tablespoons sardines in tomato sauce (provides B12 & flavor)
2 tablespoons chicken fat or canola oil
1/4 teaspoon potassium chloride (salt substitute)

This diet provides 964kcal, 34gm of protien & 49gm of fat. Supports the daily calorie needs of a 33lb dog

For vitamins and minerals ad as follows:
I crush the vitamins & bonemeal
  •      4 bonemeal tablets (10 grain or equivalent)  or 1 tsp bonemeal       powder
  •      Multivitan n(dog) per package directions, I like Canine Plus by Vetriscience
  •      Omega 3 & 6
  •      Fresh, raw, or steamed veggies (avoid excess broccoli, no grapes, no onions, no avocados 
The final actual diet along with the amounts to feed and the need for supplementation should be determined by your vet. I am not a vet. This was made to supplement an emaciated foster who did not enjoy regular food. She has since been adopted & transitioned to normal food. 

I use frozen mixed veggies, rinsed VERY well and steamed


Even Betty the cat likes it
