My wife left me a year ago I see my sons weekends . So my dog is my only company and he is helping me going thru this hard time. He doesn't talk but he gives me plenty of love and attention. I don't mind cook for him or spend $ on him he deserves to eat well.
It gets better, but takes time. Just stay busy with things you like to do. It took an entire year to come out of my daze then almost another before dating again. Happily remarried now.
For 8 years it has been a struggle for me to get my picky Yorkie to eat. I found your page last week, went straight to the store and cooked this the same day…my buddy has been eating two meals a day for a whole week now!! HE HAS NEVER DONE THAT!! No more sick on his stomach issues from not eating! THANK YOU!!
@@heatherleelovejoy9690 Well all my recipes are my own creation. I usually do a mixture of a couple types of muscle meat with some organ meat as well. Then I add in the eggs and shells (if you want you can grind the shell is a coffee / herb grinder), some veggies, and some thickening ingredient like rice, oatmeal, tapioca, or quinoa.
@@heatherleelovejoy9690 I made the one in this video: Chicken livers, chicken gizzards, ground turkey, boneless pork chop, sweet potatoes, carrots, brown rice, unsalted red kidney beans, unsalted green beans and unsalted beef broth. (I didn’t do the raw eggs…I was a little nervous he wouldn’t eat it)
I really appreciate that you include storage and shelf life in your videos. Its always such a missed piece of information in a lot of guides. Thankyou so much!
I've made a variation of this today, my boy absolutely wolfed it down. So happy to see him eating a full meal and not just eating because he has to. Thank you for your knowledge!
FYI, bone calcium is much better than egg shell calcium form (which is calcium carbonate and lacks other minerals). The legumes in this recipe are also a no-no as it puts to much non-species appropriate, fermentable fiber into their carnivore GI tract. This recipe would be greatly improved if the beans were eliminated and the liver and egg yolks were not cooked or at least very mildly cooked so as to preserve the vitamins. Also, I would make sure to rotate this recipe with others using human grade bone meal as the calcium source or better yet, giving the dog a raw, edible bone like a duck neck.
@@xXxTimbyxXx And what do you think burnt to a crisp kibble is made out of? You guessed it GMO foods. At least now it is a much healthier meal. If you want to use non gmo organic foods, go for it, it will just cost twice as much. I assume since you left that comment, you never eat any gmo foods? You never eat anything from a restaurant, you never eat anything with any corn product in it (corn starch, corn syrup, etc.). Don't try to talk about something when you don't even follow what you say :p
Imagine if you had to eat dry corn flakes for every meal of your life from a toddler until your death… You would come down with a multitude of illnesses, you would have pain all the time and your life span would be only about a third or less of what it could be. That’s what dry dog food does to your dog. Dog food companies have no legal liability for the health of your dog. They care only about money and could care less about your dog - how sick they get or how miserably they live or die. Under current law animals are only property. They have no more rights or value than a lamp. Dogs nutritional needs are very similar to our own. Vets schools do not teach anything about nutrition. even though they claim to know everything. They don’t.
Thanks for showing your dogs eat at the end it’s such a good way to finish the video seein the target audience enjoy the food. So many people make dog food videos and don’t show if the dogs eat it at the end which I feel like is very important
After more than 2 years of the same homemade food my dog for whatever reason started to waste more than she was eating so I tried a variation of your recipe. She loves it. Well except for the kidney beans which she leaves beside her dish!! Thanks so much for your recipe. It's nice to see her clean her plate again!
My dogs love your recipes! Just tried a couple and they are really enjoying the food. I get so tired of worrying about the canned foods safety and quality. At least, now I know what is in the food I feed them. Keep up the new recipe ideas. Maybe this will help my 15 yo min pin, Tony, will live to be 25 yo or more :)
I’ve been making your recipes for my Pittie and Beagke for about 2 years now! I use them as a meal topper, so they get a some store bought dry food and this together. They LOVE it!
That is a great way to transition them away from commercial food. If you think about it, dry dog food has only been made since WWII here, so not all that long. We can do better!
I had two senior dogs with a few health issues. I cook some meat with veggies and mix it with their dry food. I love to see them drooling when am getting their food ready❤❤❤ it’s worth the money and time invested in the kitchen
You sure have done your research man, this is really cool, I’ll be searching UA-cam for a bit in regards to my dogs diet, he’s a westie mix but I’m definitely taking notes from your videos!
Yes he has. As I because to many dogs ESPECIALLY die at early ages now from messed up don't even know what's in some of dry foods. To the meal etc products by products crap? Lots have changed over the years. Also many of the bigger brands are stating changes to theirs as well. But 1st when I started my research Blue buffalo to the Hills Science which vets highly recommend to try and even Sale. Some bad batches of both of these we're killing dogs. I've yet to use either one. Causes cancer at early ages. Not cool. Yet seems many are trying to step up their game too.
Research what goes into. kibble and I' m sure you'll be horrified....absolutely disgusting. And the extreme high heat that they have to use causes cancer causing end products called A.G.E.'s. Don't remember right now what they stand for but you can research it. There are no good kibble or canned foods. The only healthy way to feed your dogs are raw or lightly cooked fresh whole foods - human grade and organic if you can especially with the blueberries, or other fruits and vegetables. Dogs don't have the digestive enzymes to digest vegetables and fruit. In the wild the fruit and vegetables they ate were already partially digested in the guts of their prey. But in the summer, wolves will eat some wild growing blueberries.
There are some raw freeze dried organic foods that maintain the original nutrients that are OK to feed but they are made by some holistic vets who were looking for something healthy and easy they good feed their dogs and their clients dogs. Their clients were looking for food they could trust.
I enjoyed watching your video and my dog was listening to your dogs making loud noise while eating. LOL Now my dog is ready to get his meal. AWESOME VIDEO! Thank you for such a great recipe!
My Shih Tzu has pancreatitis and I have made her food since she was 8 weeks old. I use only chicken (breasts and thighs skinless cut into 2 inch pieces) because she can't have too much fat. I use 3 1/2 cups of water to simmer the chicken, carrots (I use regular carrots because the "baby" carrots are bleached), celery, sweet peas and Lima beans to season the water (she LOVES the creamy Lima beans). Once the chicken is cooked through, I take it out to cool, and take out the veggies and place them in ice water to stop the cooking and preserve as much vitamins as I can. I add 1 cup of brown rice and 1/3 cup of dried cranberries to the water. I process the chicken, then the veggies when cooled, and the rice is done in about 45 min. The rice is still soupy so I also add 2 pkgs of plain instant oatmeal. This is enough food for about 14 days, being fed 1/3 cup twice a day. Today she is 12 years old and still runs and jumps like a puppy! She had maintained her 14 lb weight all her life and the vet says to keep doing what we are doing because her yearly check ups have been perfect. Next time I am going to add eggs to her mixture as you suggested. Thanks for putting this video out there!
I also have a mini schnauzer with chronic pancreatitis and use ground turkey rice and vegetable like carrots or sweat potatoe but will be adding egg and pumpkin
This looks really good! Glad the pups love it. In 2005, there were a lot of dogs that died from dog food made in China or with ingredients sourced from China. It prompted me to make their own food. Not only do they love it, I know exactly what ingredients are in their food. I usually just use one type of protein though per cooking and switch it up every week with a different protein. Sometimes I add chicken liver to the protein. For vegetables, I switch it around as well each week: green beans, carrots, zucchini, squash, pumpkin, chards, peas. For carbs, potatoes, sweet potatoes. I also make my own chicken broth. I used to buy them until I discovered it has onions/onions concentrate in it.
Good for you! Happy dogs! Yes you can use whatever store bought or homemade broth you want (or use just water). Some vets say tiny amounts of onion and garlic are actually beneficial. But online, you'll find conflicting info on any topic. In the final meals, the amount of onion is miniscule. My dog is 13 years old now. Never been sick or injured his whole life. Acts like a crazy puppy still. And still has sharp white teeth equal to a 3 or 4 year old dog. I also make homemade healthy treats (see my dog treat playlist).
Just wanted to add. Get those organ meats in there. Livers, tripe, kidneys, etc.. Also bones and calcium are important. My dog will eat half a raw chicken, or whole cornish hen, bones and all. Never feed cooked bones, only raw. If you don't want to feed bones, save all your egg shells. I just smash them up in my meals, but you can dry them and blend them up to a powder to add to the food.
Idk why but the dogs in mexico don't get sick when I was little we gave them anything we can afford and never heard of kibble and the dogs usually sir of old age
Hi no disrepect to anyone here, but should the gogs not have raw veggies. I give raw veggies, as she loves chewing food. I do boil chicken for her. But do not normally give her any cooked veggies. Also we do not normally feed our food as it contains salt and some sort of tasty bits like chillies, onion, garlic etc. We are getting off kibble, that is what the breeder gave. We continued for a while with mixture of fresh meat and veggies eggs, coconut oil, oats, salmon oil. We are gradually getting away from kibble. She is nine months, so by the time she is 11 months, she will hardly have any kibble. She does not seem to mind, as not fussy eater. Just loves all foods. Bur keeping them healthy is our job.
@@vibhaspalding6457 you can feed them raw or cooked veggies. Raw are suppose to have more nutrients but they’re healthy either way garlic is toxic to dogs as well so good call
@@meadowsmama94 i do not feed garlic at all. This is why i said we do NOT feed our food as it has salt, onions, garlic, chillies etc. I cook her special food from boiled chicken and fresh raw veggies. I havevrecently cooked meat with some veggies, like sweet potato and parsnips. She will not eat raw parsnips, cabbage or spinach. But raw carrots, broccoli, sprouts, peas, edame, cauliflour is fine with her. Always learning to keep her healthy.
Thanks so much! Im just now joining this community of feeding my 5 lbs. Chihuahua 😊homemade dog food, and she loves it! Your video was awesome! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for these videos. I’m getting so many good ideas for my dog. During this whole Covid thing we’re having a hard time finding chicken livers hearts and gizzards. Can’t wait to add those into his food to see how he likes those as well. Please keep these videos coming they’re really informative and helpful.
Thanks for the videos you make it look so easy to make. I am going to cook for my dog from now on. I am tired of him getting sick from dog food and I buy good quality ones. No one knows what they put inside! Home cooked food will cost me the same amount of money as a monthly supply of the dog food, so people who say it's expensive it really isn't!
I been making almost the same thing and my doggies love it!! No more stinky gas just happy Doggies.. I boil some chicken breast separately and give as a treat, after they went out, and make what I call "The Golden poop" It's perfect in size and color! May be gross but dog poop is very important..LOL..True..You just gotta love um!!
Exactly, I spent so much money on everything on the market . My dog had diarrhea no matter how expensive the brand . Switched to homage now she's golden . 🤣
Speaking about dog poop...will this help make the poop solid....i have 4 different breed dogs and kibble no matter what kind it is either gives them the runs or is just super wet and mushy....Which is why i'm looking to help make their diet better...thank you in advance
This is awesome. Just a heads up that some dogs are allergic to certain kinds of meat or veggies. My dog can't eat birds (chicken/turkey) or lamb or nightshade veggies - my vet did a simple food test allergy to find this out. Before when she ate those things she was scratching a lot and had inflammation.
I made this today after watching your video. I have always done a mixture of white rice, chicken breast, carrots, white and sweet potatoes. Not so good. Still shedding and inconsistent bathroom habits. Made your recipe, they gobbled it up and we shall see. What I should have done before was research before I made my own combo. I have to get over preparing for my babies and not me. If it looks nasty I automatically assume they won't like it. They loved it!!!!! Thank you my friend.
I really like that you mentioned that in nature dogs dont crack the shell , they just eat it how it is. Ive been trying to find better things to feed my dog
@@3Antimasonicparty3 Eggs are never bleached... Do some research... Eggs come in many different colors. Now, eggs are processed in some places, and less or not at all in others. But, none are bleached or changed in shell color.
I found one of your videos about a year ago and started feeding my dogs a homecooked diet, unfortunately with a husky and my chihuahua mix I was having to cook all the time so I switched to raw and they’ve been on it ever since, I’m glad I found your videos to start me on their raw food journey :)
Raw is great! I feed raw as well. I just like to have some cooked food too. Some things I feed, like sweet potatoes, and some of the other veggies and rice, need to be cooked. But, pretty much any meat (other than pork) can be fed raw. Glad to hear you are feeding your dogs so well!
This is awesome. My dog is having gastro issues with regular dog food and i have been looking for an easy homemade recipe for a while. I am definitly going to try this out!!
I have A 16 month old yorkie that I started cooking his food for. I think I am just trying to get a good balance there are some that use a lot of carbs mid level of meat very little vegetables and fruit. My yorkie has had fevers of unknown origin and we are trying everything with him and charting. How much do you give them and what is for supper .
I make our dog’s (and our cats’) food, too. I do use low glycemic veggies in the recipe, because our last dog died of cancer, and low glycemic vegetables were recommended for her. Thanks for the ideas!
Thank you so much for sharing! I just rescued a dog in Kuwait and there’s not much variety when it comes to dog food, plus it’s pretty pricey! This is so much healthier and very doable! I am definitely going to try this out! Thanks!
So grateful to have found your page. I had no idea I could use unsalted broth for my pup. I have some stew beef in the crock pot now. I can't wait to watch my boy eat this afternoon. Thank you! 💚
Most store bought bore broth have onions in it. Onions are poisonous to dogs. Super easy to make your own. Brown rice and brown rice have arsenic in it. Egg shells should be cooked in the oven preferably not store-bought eggs. I would add another meat source .
Thank you for this. A high end dog food caused massive inflammation in my dog and in a matter of weeks he couldn't even get up and down a small stoop. I don't trust dog food and think the whole industry is a racket. I'm feeding my dog real food from now on.
when i received my dog from a friend, she is my first dog. people told me NEVER feed them human food. i didn't listen. she's 13 1/2, still chasing squirrels.
The general rule for homemade dog food is to feed 2 to 4 percent of the dogs body weight per day. Depends on age, breed, activity level, etc.. 3% is a good starting point. So, a 50lb dog would need about 1.5lbs of food per day.
For their other meals I feed raw muscle and organ meats, raw bones, homemade dehydrated meats, and homemade healthy treats (see my dog treat playlist).
I started making natural dog food for my dog and she loves it. She's a Jack/CHI mix. I got tired of her eating the food from the stores and realizing it's not really healthy no matter how much you pay. I buy big bags of chicken breast. I'm still new to the whole thing, but my dog is doing well on it.
I’ve made homemade dog food for years but never thought about the egg shells. I grind them into powder first. Also, I give them 2 cups of kibble so they get the necessary vitamins. They are large breed dogs and would never eat canned dog food. I like the looks of all the meats together. Mine avoid the kidney beans unless ground up.
I do the same, 1/2 C kibble 1/2 C non kibble. I usually do ground turkey, ground bison, sweet potatoes, spinach, carrots, gizzards. I’ll try this multi-meat recipe. I have a 70 lb Akita/ chow & 130 lb American Bulldog
He's always been an insane eater lol. Search UA-cam for, "Earthling1984 fastest dog". I have some videos feeding him steaks. He eats a whole steak, larger than I would eat, in like seconds.
Fuck off I care 🤣 did you end up sticking to making food? I feel like for most people it'd be an attempt for a bit until they give up. I'm considering trying.
Thank you. This gives me ideas to feed my dog. My wife bought food from the farmers dog but its expensive. Just trying to find a more cost effective way to feed our dog good quality food. He is a german shepherd/husky mix.
Your videos opened a new world for me going forward prepping my special dogs food. I would take about 30mins cutting up all the vegetables and portioning meat when now I can just buy an entire bag and dump them in lol
Thank you so much for your recipes. My dog was never really interested by his food since I've adopted him almost 3 years ago. He got sick lately (he was a 4.2 pounds chihuahua) and dropped half a pound in 2 months with his sickness and the fact that he wanted nothing to do with his regular food. I've discovered your youtube videos and I think that was the best thing that could've happen. Now he's going nuts when it's time to feed him and I even had to buy him a special bowl to slow him down. Again, thank you for your help, that is really appreciated. Take care and stay safe!
Can I ask....how much food do you give and how many meals? Do you provide additional snacks or dry dog food too? I need some help figuring out food for my darling rescue Chihuahua mix. He should weigh ideally 7 pounds. Thank you! Oh, he is 6 years old too.
I'm so glad I found your video. My dog is a very picky eater and would eat only fresh pet dog food. I'm tired of spending money on things that I know isn't really all that healthy. I will be trying this recipe tomorrow 😊.
Thank you! It is great that you give such clear, simple instructions. And so good that you show the actual packaging…and all of the steps. (We have a metal dog food bowl with a rubber base that stops it from moving around the floor. I have NO idea where I got it from, though, as it’s been many years! Our chihuahua had to chase the food bowl around the kitchen floor-like yours are. But thru don’t seem to mind!)
We're new to making homemade dog food. Out of all the videos, we seem to like yours the best. 2 questions; 1. Our long-haired chihuahua (Zoe) is approx 11-12 lbs., how much do we feed her each day, she usually gets fed anywhere from 3-5 pm? 2. What should we give her to chew for her teeth? Her treat for #2 business outside in a Milk-bone dental chew (cut into small pieces)
For any dog food, 10oz a day per 10-12lbs the dog weighs. We have a dog named Annabelle who weighs 50-55 and we just found out we're supposed to feed her 50oz 😅 that's why I'm here finding a cheaper alternative to what we've been feeding her
OK, will try it, I have been supplementing kibble, use half of what I used to, with cooked meats & rice,carrots, green beans . I make pumpkin biscuits also......pumpkin-egg-oatmeal-almond flour & some unbleached flour...
Thanks for your information. I have been home cooking my dogs food in the last month. No kibble ever again! Your dogs are lovely - such characters and love that food!!👍
So glad I found this video. I've been making dog food for about a year, but is goes on top of some Purina One kibble. Mainly just used the ground turkey chubb, brown rice & carrots. Looking forward to expanding their food options. I feel guilty b/c both my large dogs are 12 yrs old and it never dawned on me in the first decade of their lives that I could make their food so much better!
Wow, this was a wonderful education on what dogs can eat---what they can't. I'm not sure I can find or afford all the items in there, especially the meats, but I really enjoyed watching this with my little Mona (Miniature Dachshund) on my lap watching in between glances at me asking "So ? Why have I not seen this is my bowl .. EVER ? Okay so I'll shape up (And I do thank you}
I just don’t have the time or space to make my dog food so I went the topper route! I use the Orajen dog food which already has frieze dried raw from different parts of the animal and not a lot of carbs vs protein. I use raw goat milk, human grade bone broth, Stella & Chewys freeze dried raw mixers with the kibble. I hydrate the kibble and then my pup is also a fan of raw or gently cooked meat and he will snack on carrots.
@@radthesnake You would be amazed. Some people don't shop, or just pay the total at the checkout without knowing the prices of anything. They're very young, or very rich, or can't be bothered, or a combination.
I want to a whole food store and purchased all the ingredients you suggested. I then used an instant pot and made a full pot of homemade dog food. I did add a multivitamin. You add a little water and the vitamin turns into gravy. My dog loves the food. I will never buy store can or kibble again. Thank you for your videos.
It looks delicious and very healthy! My dogs would scarf that down in a couple bites. I would have to make that stuff up in a giant rubbermaid container to feed my hounds for a week lol
Yeah. You can find all types of info and misinfo online. Some vets even say small amounts of onion or garlic is beneficial. Overall, the tiny amount of onion in the broth and the miniscule amount in each final meal, isn't an issue, and could be beneficial. But, of you are worried you can use some broth with none of that in it (homemade or store bought). Or, just use water.
Thank you for this wonderful recipe. My picky Tibetan Terrier loves it! I went to 4 stores and could not find the heart/gizzard combo so just doubled the gizzards. This made 20 cups for $25.00 and is much more nutritious than the Ceasar individuals I was getting. Most of Cheezie's front teeth are missing but she easily ate through the softened meat after I cut it up to bitesize.. Also, I figured out that for each serving, I will save 42 Cents!!! OVER ONE HALF of what I was paying! Thank you...going to try the budget recipe next time! ONE QUESTION: I will feed her 1/3 cup in the morning and wonder what you suggest for the evening since you mentioned dogs should not have organ meats all the time.
The amount of organ meat in most my meals is not going to be too much. But, I usually feed some raw meat and bones (may be hard for your dog) fresh caught fish when I go fishing, and I make homemade dehydrated muscle and organ meat for treats (also maybe too hard for your dog). You may want to stick to just the soft foods. Just make sure to have a food variety, make food slightly different every batch. I don't use any supplements, but for your dog with missing teeth, you may want to add a little powdered dog vitamins to your home cooked meals for peace of mind.
I've cooked Steve(my great dane) food from scratch several times, and it's honestly a lot of fun, arguably cheaper than store bought(40-80 dollars a bag that he burns through in a week or two), and it makes him super happy. Dog kibble always seemed kinda cruel to me. People will use the hypothetical question to each other, "If you could only eat one food for the rest of your life, what would it be?" I can guarantee no dog would choose kibble. There's a reason dogs have a tendency to beg for "people food", their food isn't very good. I hope it becomes more commonplace to feed dogs actual food, not a bag of dry flavorless pellets.
You have very well educated pups and they are well fed I made dog food for my pups too but add a lot of veggies steamed and also sardines or tuna they eat twice a day and are healthy but old. Thanks for the video
My Yorkie is 14, only eat human food all her meals, I make it twice a month in the instant pot, also try to add turmeric when cooking it dose miracles for older dogs joints, she still runs around the house all the time and barks a storm when she hear the mailman outside
I add a small amount of kibble and one probiotic in with your recipe to ensure they get some vitamins I don't add. One of my dogs has issues with processed poultry by products but now, No more ear infections! Lasts me about two weeks for my three dogs and it's about $10 cheaper than the canned food with mystery meat. Thumbs up!
No one ever mentions how much (how many lbs per day) to feed a Pitbull pup or dog…. Not how many times you feed per day but how much do you really need to feed them per day. Not looking at the recommended feeding on the bags.
There eating fast enough they act like there starving but I know there not I'm saying they like it so much cause anyone who has dogs that like that and r so well behaved and cooks food like that 4 there dog that's how it should be 4 dogs and all animals thank u so much for being such an awesome dog owner those seem to be getting rarer and rarer fast god bless thanks for sharing God bless u and your dogs of course
I like this thanks. Switching my dogs from kibble. I can't imagine eating cereal every meal and snack even if I get to chose different cereal every time. I also can't imagine kibble being healthier than even just feeding my dogs our leftovers so I'm jumping into homemade/raw dog food.
Kibble creates toxins when cooked in high temperatures and kibble gets cooked in high temperatures. After it's packed in bags it sits in the warehouse possibly for months where it can grow mold and fungus. Not very appealing. Please check out, (Pet Fooled). It's a documentary about the pet food industry, kibble and canned. Canned is just as bad.
I recently moved out and got a dog to help my mental health. Its perfect. No matter how tired I am, i know i have my doggie son to feed and walk, so he pushes me just a bit past my limit every day. Im still super poor, so today i used what was in my kitche. To hold me over to payday tomorrow! Awesome video! I have oatmeal, chicken thighs, blueberries, salmon, eggs, and 1 cup of kibble for a 7 month old great pyrenees
I wish my dogs listen to me like yours 😂 I have been cooking for my dogs since 2006. So glad found you and add more recipes for my babies. Would appreciate if you can add ingredients list to your next video. Thank you!
As someone that works in with animals and has a degree in animal nutrition, I’m glad that you stated at the beginning of your video to check with their local vet. I’m tired of random influencers making a video with zero understanding of how to put together a well balanced meal for their dogs. I’m glad to see a video of someone that made a balanced meal for their dogs. The chicken nugget part was cute 😊 This video just popped up and I’m glad I saw it🙂
Thank you for sharing this I'm just about finished cooking it. We will see how my dog likes it . I think she will love it. I also think it will be very good for her. Thank you again. I was having a hard time trying to find something good for her to eat.
I wish you would do a video on the meals for the entire day! You said this is only for breakfast, what about the rest of the day? Thank you for the video
My wife left me a year ago I see my sons weekends .
So my dog is my only company and he is helping me going thru this hard time.
He doesn't talk but he gives me plenty of love and attention.
I don't mind cook for him or spend $ on him he deserves to eat well.
Stay positive man! Glad you got your dog buddy to help you through this tough time. This too shall pass as the good book says.
It gets better, but takes time. Just stay busy with things you like to do. It took an entire year to come out of my daze then almost another before dating again. Happily remarried now.
Man's best friend
Many blessings for you & your doggo. You will be fine & I am sure ur 🐕 LOVES the fresh meals he is getting 😋
For 8 years it has been a struggle for me to get my picky Yorkie to eat. I found your page last week, went straight to the store and cooked this the same day…my buddy has been eating two meals a day for a whole week now!! HE HAS NEVER DONE THAT!! No more sick on his stomach issues from not eating! THANK YOU!!
So happy to hear! Thanks for the comment and good luck with your pup!
❤
Which recipe did you try first?
@@heatherleelovejoy9690 Well all my recipes are my own creation. I usually do a mixture of a couple types of muscle meat with some organ meat as well. Then I add in the eggs and shells (if you want you can grind the shell is a coffee / herb grinder), some veggies, and some thickening ingredient like rice, oatmeal, tapioca, or quinoa.
@@heatherleelovejoy9690 I made the one in this video: Chicken livers, chicken gizzards, ground turkey, boneless pork chop, sweet potatoes, carrots, brown rice, unsalted red kidney beans, unsalted green beans and unsalted beef broth. (I didn’t do the raw eggs…I was a little nervous he wouldn’t eat it)
I really appreciate that you include storage and shelf life in your videos. Its always such a missed piece of information in a lot of guides. Thankyou so much!
You are so welcome!
@Earthling1984 u mentioned in the video that u feed that for breakfast. About the quantity in cups, 1 or 2? Also for dinner what do u feed?
I've made a variation of this today, my boy absolutely wolfed it down. So happy to see him eating a full meal and not just eating because he has to. Thank you for your knowledge!
Nothing more satisfying than hearing your dogs enjoying home-made food. That sound makes me love cooking for mine.
So true. My staffie would burp by me to let me know that he enjoyed his meal 🍽️ 😂
I love it when my baby gobbles her food down. That means she loves what mommy made ❤🎉
Adding the whole eggs your adding calcium in the shells. Excellent. I always use the whole egg with shells in my dogs food .
FYI, bone calcium is much better than egg shell calcium form (which is calcium carbonate and lacks other minerals). The legumes in this recipe are also a no-no as it puts to much non-species appropriate, fermentable fiber into their carnivore GI tract. This recipe would be greatly improved if the beans were eliminated and the liver and egg yolks were not cooked or at least very mildly cooked so as to preserve the vitamins. Also, I would make sure to rotate this recipe with others using human grade bone meal as the calcium source or better yet, giving the dog a raw, edible bone like a duck neck.
Dogs must love this man! That food is way healthier than dry dog food.
Mmmm GMO’s :P
@@xXxTimbyxXx And what do you think burnt to a crisp kibble is made out of? You guessed it GMO foods. At least now it is a much healthier meal. If you want to use non gmo organic foods, go for it, it will just cost twice as much.
I assume since you left that comment, you never eat any gmo foods? You never eat anything from a restaurant, you never eat anything with any corn product in it (corn starch, corn syrup, etc.). Don't try to talk about something when you don't even follow what you say :p
Imagine if you had to eat dry corn flakes for every meal of your life from a toddler until your death… You would come down with a multitude of illnesses, you would have pain all the time and your life span would be only about a third or less of what it could be. That’s what dry dog food does to your dog. Dog food companies have no legal liability for the health of your dog. They care only about money and could care less about your dog - how sick they get or how miserably they live or die. Under current law animals are only property. They have no more rights or value than a lamp. Dogs nutritional needs are very similar to our own. Vets schools do not teach anything about nutrition. even though they claim to know everything. They don’t.

Canned dog food is getting super expensive.
Glad to see this guy still uploads I used to watch him like 6 years ago and his vids helped me get a leopard gecko
I was HUGELY surprised how cheap homemade food could be... I'm soo happy I switched🙂
Me too and it’s better for them and we give them our meal scraps
Thanks for showing your dogs eat at the end it’s such a good way to finish the video seein the target audience enjoy the food. So many people make dog food videos and don’t show if the dogs eat it at the end which I feel like is very important
Used this recipe for my first time making dog food. They loved it! Thank you!
After more than 2 years of the same homemade food my dog for whatever reason started to waste more than she was eating so I tried a variation of your recipe. She loves it. Well except for the kidney beans which she leaves beside her dish!! Thanks so much for your recipe. It's nice to see her clean her plate again!
Glad to hear! I make my dog food different every time. Nobody wants the same food every day for years. Some variety is a good thing!
My dogs love your recipes! Just tried a couple and they are really enjoying the food. I get so tired of worrying about the canned foods safety and quality. At least, now I know what is in the food I feed them. Keep up the new recipe ideas. Maybe this will help my 15 yo min pin, Tony, will live to be 25 yo or more :)
Lu C What were you feeding your dogs before if you don’t mind me asking?
I’ve been making your recipes for my Pittie and Beagke for about 2 years now! I use them as a meal topper, so they get a some store bought dry food and this together. They LOVE it!
Glad to hear!
What a great idea
Can we mix these homecooked food and dry dog food tgt in a same meal?
That is a great way to transition them away from commercial food. If you think about it, dry dog food has only been made since WWII here, so not all that long. We can do better!
@@berviffy30 g GG high phpjppuh photos your LLC
I had two senior dogs with a few health issues. I cook some meat with veggies and mix it with their dry food. I love to see them drooling when am getting their food ready❤❤❤ it’s worth the money and time invested in the kitchen
Maybe they are happy of raw quality food😉👍
You sure have done your research man, this is really cool, I’ll be searching UA-cam for a bit in regards to my dogs diet, he’s a westie mix but I’m definitely taking notes from your videos!
I feed a vast variety of foods. I did also work as a vet tech for years.
Yes he has. As I because to many dogs ESPECIALLY die at early ages now from messed up don't even know what's in some of dry foods. To the meal etc products by products crap? Lots have changed over the years. Also many of the bigger brands are stating changes to theirs as well. But 1st when I started my research Blue buffalo to the Hills Science which vets highly recommend to try and even Sale. Some bad batches of both of these we're killing dogs. I've yet to use either one. Causes cancer at early ages. Not cool. Yet seems many are trying to step up their game too.
@@1antiquejunkietc355 what do you think about natures recipe wet/dry food
Research what goes into. kibble and I' m sure you'll be horrified....absolutely disgusting. And the extreme high heat that they have to use causes cancer causing end products called A.G.E.'s.
Don't remember right now what they stand for but you can research it. There are no good kibble or canned foods. The only healthy way to feed your dogs are raw or lightly cooked fresh whole foods - human grade and organic if you can especially with the blueberries, or other fruits and vegetables. Dogs don't have the digestive enzymes to digest vegetables
and fruit. In the wild the fruit and vegetables they ate were already partially digested in the guts of their prey. But in the summer, wolves will eat some wild growing blueberries.
There are some raw freeze dried organic foods that maintain the original nutrients that are OK to feed but they are made by some holistic vets who were looking for something healthy and easy they good feed their dogs and their clients dogs. Their clients were looking for food they could trust.
I’ve eaten this meal 4 times a week for 2 years now and have gotten the GREATEST GAINS of my life !! Just wanted to say THANKS!!!!!
🤣🤣
Lollll
Gains or losses? 😂
Lmfaoooo 😂😂😂😂
Lol ur username 😢
At first I was surprised that one bag lasted two weeks. But when I saw the dogs, it was clear to me. For me it would only be enough for two days
I enjoyed watching your video and my dog was listening to your dogs making loud noise while eating. LOL Now my dog is ready to get his meal. AWESOME VIDEO! Thank you for such a great recipe!
My Shih Tzu has pancreatitis and I have made her food since she was 8 weeks old. I use only chicken (breasts and thighs skinless cut into 2 inch pieces) because she can't have too much fat. I use 3 1/2 cups of water to simmer the chicken, carrots (I use regular carrots because the "baby" carrots are bleached), celery, sweet peas and Lima beans to season the water (she LOVES the creamy Lima beans). Once the chicken is cooked through, I take it out to cool, and take out the veggies and place them in ice water to stop the cooking and preserve as much vitamins as I can. I add 1 cup of brown rice and 1/3 cup of dried cranberries to the water. I process the chicken, then the veggies when cooled, and the rice is done in about 45 min. The rice is still soupy so I also add 2 pkgs of plain instant oatmeal. This is enough food for about 14 days, being fed 1/3 cup twice a day. Today she is 12 years old and still runs and jumps like a puppy! She had maintained her 14 lb weight all her life and the vet says to keep doing what we are doing because her yearly check ups have been perfect. Next time I am going to add eggs to her mixture as you suggested. Thanks for putting this video out there!
I have a shitzu too. Thank you for letting us know what works for your little dog 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
I also have a mini schnauzer with chronic pancreatitis and use ground turkey rice and vegetable like carrots or sweat potatoe but will be adding egg and pumpkin
Our shih tzu loves chicke, but it seems to cause diarrhea
This looks really good! Glad the pups love it. In 2005, there were a lot of dogs that died from dog food made in China or with ingredients sourced from China. It prompted me to make their own food. Not only do they love it, I know exactly what ingredients are in their food. I usually just use one type of protein though per cooking and switch it up every week with a different protein. Sometimes I add chicken liver to the protein. For vegetables, I switch it around as well each week: green beans, carrots, zucchini, squash, pumpkin, chards, peas. For carbs, potatoes, sweet potatoes.
I also make my own chicken broth. I used to buy them until I discovered it has onions/onions concentrate in it.
Good for you! Happy dogs! Yes you can use whatever store bought or homemade broth you want (or use just water). Some vets say tiny amounts of onion and garlic are actually beneficial. But online, you'll find conflicting info on any topic. In the final meals, the amount of onion is miniscule. My dog is 13 years old now. Never been sick or injured his whole life. Acts like a crazy puppy still. And still has sharp white teeth equal to a 3 or 4 year old dog. I also make homemade healthy treats (see my dog treat playlist).
Just wanted to add. Get those organ meats in there. Livers, tripe, kidneys, etc.. Also bones and calcium are important. My dog will eat half a raw chicken, or whole cornish hen, bones and all. Never feed cooked bones, only raw. If you don't want to feed bones, save all your egg shells. I just smash them up in my meals, but you can dry them and blend them up to a powder to add to the food.
I finally did this today and much to my amazement, my dog completely devoured it! Thanks for the video ! Now I’m a happy doggy dad !
I lived in Mexico as a child, and I NEVER saw anyone feed their dog kibble. Dogs would eat same food as their human owners!
Idk why but the dogs in mexico don't get sick when I was little we gave them anything we can afford and never heard of kibble and the dogs usually sir of old age
Hi no disrepect to anyone here, but should the gogs not have raw veggies. I give raw veggies, as she loves chewing food. I do boil chicken for her. But do not normally give her any cooked veggies. Also we do not normally feed our food as it contains salt and some sort of tasty bits like chillies, onion, garlic etc. We are getting off kibble, that is what the breeder gave. We continued for a while with mixture of fresh meat and veggies eggs, coconut oil, oats, salmon oil. We are gradually getting away from kibble. She is nine months, so by the time she is 11 months, she will hardly have any kibble. She does not seem to mind, as not fussy eater. Just loves all foods. Bur keeping them healthy is our job.
The same thing happens in INDIA bro here people feed milk,youghart,bread especially in North INDIA
@@vibhaspalding6457 you can feed them raw or cooked veggies. Raw are suppose to have more nutrients but they’re healthy either way garlic is toxic to dogs as well so good call
@@meadowsmama94 i do not feed garlic at all. This is why i said we do NOT feed our food as it has salt, onions, garlic, chillies etc. I cook her special food from boiled chicken and fresh raw veggies. I havevrecently cooked meat with some veggies, like sweet potato and parsnips. She will not eat raw parsnips, cabbage or spinach. But raw carrots, broccoli, sprouts, peas, edame, cauliflour is fine with her. Always learning to keep her healthy.
Thanks so much! Im just now joining this community of feeding my 5 lbs. Chihuahua 😊homemade dog food, and she loves it! Your video was awesome! Thanks for sharing!
I cook for my dog almost the same way you do but in a slow cooker. No kibble food for my doggy thank you
Thank you for these videos. I’m getting so many good ideas for my dog. During this whole Covid thing we’re having a hard time finding chicken livers hearts and gizzards. Can’t wait to add those into his food to see how he likes those as well. Please keep these videos coming they’re really informative and helpful.
where can I find the recipe with ingredients and instructions?
In the video. And you don't have to worry about exact amounts.
About to try this now. Thanks for the recipe easy cheap and simple. Most of all healthy.
I just love Jack that little wiggling and anticipation in his eyes. Jack your a good boy much love
Thanks for the videos you make it look so easy to make. I am going to cook for my dog from now on. I am tired of him getting sick from dog food and I buy good quality ones. No one knows what they put inside! Home cooked food will cost me the same amount of money as a monthly supply of the dog food, so people who say it's expensive it really isn't!
I been making almost the same thing and my doggies love it!! No more stinky gas just happy Doggies.. I boil some chicken breast separately and give as a treat, after they went out, and make what I call "The Golden poop" It's perfect in size and color! May be gross but dog poop is very important..LOL..True..You just gotta love um!!
Exactly, I spent so much money on everything on the market . My dog had diarrhea no matter how expensive the brand . Switched to homage now she's golden . 🤣
Speaking about dog poop...will this help make the poop solid....i have 4 different breed dogs and kibble no matter what kind it is either gives them the runs or is just super wet and mushy....Which is why i'm looking to help make their diet better...thank you in advance
@@hope-thru-faith9109 yes it will. Solid, not as stinky, perfect poop size and shape too😁
This is awesome. Just a heads up that some dogs are allergic to certain kinds of meat or veggies. My dog can't eat birds (chicken/turkey) or lamb or nightshade veggies - my vet did a simple food test allergy to find this out. Before when she ate those things she was scratching a lot and had inflammation.
I made this today after watching your video. I have always done a mixture of white rice, chicken breast, carrots, white and sweet potatoes. Not so good. Still shedding and inconsistent bathroom habits. Made your recipe, they gobbled it up and we shall see. What I should have done before was research before I made my own combo. I have to get over preparing for my babies and not me. If it looks nasty I automatically assume they won't like it. They loved it!!!!! Thank you my friend.
I really like that you mentioned that in nature dogs dont crack the shell , they just eat it how it is. Ive been trying to find better things to feed my dog
@@3Antimasonicparty3 Eggs are never bleached... Do some research... Eggs come in many different colors. Now, eggs are processed in some places, and less or not at all in others. But, none are bleached or changed in shell color.
Some eggs ARE bleached and it's not to charge the color it's to kill any bacteria or things like salmonella.
I found one of your videos about a year ago and started feeding my dogs a homecooked diet, unfortunately with a husky and my chihuahua mix I was having to cook all the time so I switched to raw and they’ve been on it ever since, I’m glad I found your videos to start me on their raw food journey :)
Raw is great! I feed raw as well. I just like to have some cooked food too. Some things I feed, like sweet potatoes, and some of the other veggies and rice, need to be cooked. But, pretty much any meat (other than pork) can be fed raw. Glad to hear you are feeding your dogs so well!
Thank you for this, I've been a big advocate for a natural foods diet for my dog.
Hurry up and stop talking dad, we are soooooo hungry!
I'm so happy I found these videos, my dog loves variety in his diet and I'm always struggling to come up with something new for him.
I love to see doggies healthy and well fed! 😊
This is awesome. My dog is having gastro issues with regular dog food and i have been looking for an easy homemade recipe for a while. I am definitly going to try this out!!
Same with my dog. She is a picky golden. I’m going to try this
If this is for breakfast, what do you give them for dinner?
I have the same question I’m a new mom and I don’t understand why this is only breakfast someone plz help me
I think Earthling once said that he fed his dog raw food and bones for dinner.
I have A 16 month old yorkie that I started cooking his food for. I think I am just trying to get a good balance there are some that use a lot of carbs mid level of meat very little vegetables and fruit. My yorkie has had fevers of unknown origin and we are trying everything with him and charting. How much do you give them and what is for supper .
5:20 “squishen up” yes! Love the vocab😝😊🙏🏼
I make our dog’s (and our cats’) food, too. I do use low glycemic veggies in the recipe, because our last dog died of cancer, and low glycemic vegetables were recommended for her.
Thanks for the ideas!
Which ones are they? Which veg?
Thank you so much for sharing! I just rescued a dog in Kuwait and there’s not much variety when it comes to dog food, plus it’s pretty pricey! This is so much healthier and very doable! I am definitely going to try this out! Thanks!
So grateful to have found your page. I had no idea I could use unsalted broth for my pup. I have some stew beef in the crock pot now. I can't wait to watch my boy eat this afternoon. Thank you! 💚
Most store bought bore broth have onions in it. Onions are poisonous to dogs. Super easy to make your own. Brown rice and brown rice have arsenic in it. Egg shells should be cooked in the oven preferably not store-bought eggs. I would add another meat source .
I’ve never seen a dog so excited about his food lol he was shaking so it must be great.
Thank you for this. A high end dog food caused massive inflammation in my dog and in a matter of weeks he couldn't even get up and down a small stoop.
I don't trust dog food and think the whole industry is a racket. I'm feeding my dog real food from now on.
Yes... because we have no clue what's really in it smh
when i received my dog from a friend, she is my first dog. people told me NEVER feed them human food. i didn't listen. she's 13 1/2, still chasing squirrels.
@@pegasus514 AWWWWW WHAT BREED IS YOUR BABY?
No it didn’t
I don"t trust anything in U.S. especially food. The Germans I work with are thin and energetic and smart, Americans are fat and lazy and whine alot.
How many cups per weight of dog?
Can you tell me what you make them for dinner?
Thank you.
The general rule for homemade dog food is to feed 2 to 4 percent of the dogs body weight per day. Depends on age, breed, activity level, etc.. 3% is a good starting point. So, a 50lb dog would need about 1.5lbs of food per day.
For their other meals I feed raw muscle and organ meats, raw bones, homemade dehydrated meats, and homemade healthy treats (see my dog treat playlist).
TY. I feel better now knowing I can use pork and egg shells, plus how to use oatmeal to thicken the batch. Awesome
I started making natural dog food for my dog and she loves it. She's a Jack/CHI mix. I got tired of her eating the food from the stores and realizing it's not really healthy no matter how much you pay. I buy big bags of chicken breast. I'm still new to the whole thing, but my dog is doing well on it.
Loved your dog food alternative, we are changing what we feed our dog. Thank you for the informative video to get us started, Holmes family
Happy to help! Check out my dog food and also treat playlists too! Good luck!
I love to see them so excited for food
I’ve made homemade dog food for years but never thought about the egg shells. I grind them into powder first. Also, I give them 2 cups of kibble so they get the necessary vitamins. They are large breed dogs and would never eat canned dog food. I like the looks of all the meats together. Mine avoid the kidney beans unless ground up.
I do the same, 1/2 C kibble 1/2 C non kibble. I usually do ground turkey, ground bison, sweet potatoes, spinach, carrots, gizzards. I’ll try this multi-meat recipe. I have a 70 lb Akita/ chow & 130 lb American Bulldog
Most people in Cuba do not get that amount of food in a year and I wish i was just kidding. Both your dogs are adorable,,so well behaved.
I love the end, when you feed the dogs and they both attack their meal with such gusto!
The egg shells are a good source of calcium. Flax seed is also good to add.
Just be careful with Flax....it gets rancid very fast. A doctor once told me to keep it in the freezer to prevent that.
This will be my daughter's 3 dogs THANKSGIVING meal. Thank you for the recipe.
My god jack must have been starving!!! He doesn’t play with his food haha love the vid bro 💯
He's always been an insane eater lol. Search UA-cam for, "Earthling1984 fastest dog". I have some videos feeding him steaks. He eats a whole steak, larger than I would eat, in like seconds.
I was going to wait until my dog food was out but at this point I can't. Heading to the grocery store now.
Nobody cares
@@pg4221 ABOUT YOU OR YOUR IDIOTIC COMMENT!
Fuck off I care 🤣 did you end up sticking to making food? I feel like for most people it'd be an attempt for a bit until they give up. I'm considering trying.
@@pg4221don't be mean
Thank you. This gives me ideas to feed my dog. My wife bought food from the farmers dog but its expensive. Just trying to find a more cost effective way to feed our dog good quality food. He is a german shepherd/husky mix.
Awesome!!! My Rotts have such terrible skin issues...can't wait to try this!
💗rotties God bless their hearts and cure their skin issues xo
jack was so excited 😂🥺 he’s like “Pls dad is it time i’ve been good boy pls 🥺”
Your videos opened a new world for me going forward prepping my special dogs food. I would take about 30mins cutting up all the vegetables and portioning meat when now I can just buy an entire bag and dump them in lol
Yeah, don't over complicate it. People get too crazy trying to find and follow information online. Much of which is nonsense.
@@earthling1984 Agreed! Thanks for keeping it basic and budget
They loved. I cook for my dog too. He just love to eat.
Thank you so much for your recipes. My dog was never really interested by his food since I've adopted him almost 3 years ago. He got sick lately (he was a 4.2 pounds chihuahua) and dropped half a pound in 2 months with his sickness and the fact that he wanted nothing to do with his regular food. I've discovered your youtube videos and I think that was the best thing that could've happen. Now he's going nuts when it's time to feed him and I even had to buy him a special bowl to slow him down. Again, thank you for your help, that is really appreciated. Take care and stay safe!
So glad to hear!
Can I ask....how much food do you give and how many meals? Do you provide additional snacks or dry dog food too? I need some help figuring out food for my darling rescue Chihuahua mix. He should weigh ideally 7 pounds. Thank you! Oh, he is 6 years old too.
Best dog food video I have ever seen. Thanks
I'm so glad I found your video. My dog is a very picky eater and would eat only fresh pet dog food. I'm tired of spending money on things that I know isn't really all that healthy. I will be trying this recipe tomorrow 😊.
It’s so cute how much they enjoy their meals.
Thank you! It is great that you give such clear, simple instructions. And so good that you show the actual packaging…and all of the steps. (We have a metal dog food bowl with a rubber base that stops it from moving around the floor. I have NO idea where I got it from, though, as it’s been many years! Our chihuahua had to chase the food bowl around the kitchen floor-like yours are. But thru don’t seem to mind!)
His do you know how much to feed them each, per meal/day?
I’d like to know that as well. My dog is a healthy 40 lbs!!
I have a German Shepard dog and I want to know how much food should I give him , he is 1 year old and weighs 75 pounds
We're new to making homemade dog food. Out of all the videos, we seem to like yours the best. 2 questions; 1. Our long-haired chihuahua (Zoe) is approx 11-12 lbs., how much do we feed her each day, she usually gets fed anywhere from 3-5 pm? 2. What should we give her to chew for her teeth? Her treat for #2 business outside in a Milk-bone dental chew (cut into small pieces)
For any dog food, 10oz a day per 10-12lbs the dog weighs. We have a dog named Annabelle who weighs 50-55 and we just found out we're supposed to feed her 50oz 😅 that's why I'm here finding a cheaper alternative to what we've been feeding her
OK, will try it, I have been supplementing kibble, use half of what I used to, with cooked meats & rice,carrots, green beans . I make pumpkin biscuits also......pumpkin-egg-oatmeal-almond flour & some unbleached flour...
Could you make some vet videos explaining various medicine and treatments an owner can do at home?
Thanks for your information. I have been home cooking my dogs food in the last month. No kibble ever again! Your dogs are lovely - such characters and love that food!!👍
This is the best reasonable homemade recipe I’ve seen yet!
So glad I found this video. I've been making dog food for about a year, but is goes on top of some Purina One kibble. Mainly just used the ground turkey chubb, brown rice & carrots. Looking forward to expanding their food options. I feel guilty b/c both my large dogs are 12 yrs old and it never dawned on me in the first decade of their lives that I could make their food so much better!
better late than never - and they love you no less 🙂
Wow, this was a wonderful education on what dogs can eat---what they can't. I'm not sure I can find or afford all the items in there, especially the meats, but I really enjoyed watching this with my little Mona (Miniature Dachshund) on my lap watching in between glances at me asking "So ? Why have I not seen this is my bowl .. EVER ?
Okay so I'll shape up (And I do thank you}
I just don’t have the time or space to make my dog food so I went the topper route! I use the Orajen dog food which already has frieze dried raw from different parts of the animal and not a lot of carbs vs protein. I use raw goat milk, human grade bone broth, Stella & Chewys freeze dried raw mixers with the kibble. I hydrate the kibble and then my pup is also a fan of raw or gently cooked meat and he will snack on carrots.
Thank you for this video, I enjoyed it. Jack and Prince enjoyed their meal thoroughly ;))
$20 is so much cheaper than paying $20 for one small can of wet dog food. Thanks so much dude!!!
where tf are you buying 20$ cans of wet dog food at?????
@@radthesnake You would be amazed. Some people don't shop, or just pay the total at the checkout without knowing the prices of anything. They're very young, or very rich, or can't be bothered, or a combination.
@@akrenwinkle still there is no can of dog food that is 20$. Yes they can be expensive even up to 6-8$ for a can but that’s as high as it goes.
don't lie. there are no $20 for one small can of wet dog food. don't give false information
That food looks great I at the store right now getting the ingredients now. Can't wait see the results with my dog Sarge.
I want to a whole food store and purchased all the ingredients you suggested. I then used an instant pot and made a full pot of homemade dog food. I did add a multivitamin. You add a little water and the vitamin turns into gravy. My dog loves the food. I will never buy store can or kibble again. Thank you for your videos.
They really enjoyed it. You're so caring to prep that meal for them.
:) Thanks
"Okay" and it's on. Love this guy
It looks delicious and very healthy! My dogs would scarf that down in a couple bites. I would have to make that stuff up in a giant rubbermaid container to feed my hounds for a week lol
Doesn’t broth usually have onions in it? I read somewhere that dogs aren’t supposed to have onion.
Yeah. You can find all types of info and misinfo online. Some vets even say small amounts of onion or garlic is beneficial. Overall, the tiny amount of onion in the broth and the miniscule amount in each final meal, isn't an issue, and could be beneficial.
But, of you are worried you can use some broth with none of that in it (homemade or store bought). Or, just use water.
You’re right no onion garlic and others
Thank you for this wonderful recipe. My picky Tibetan Terrier loves it! I went to 4 stores and could not find the heart/gizzard combo so just doubled the gizzards. This made 20 cups for $25.00 and is much more nutritious than the Ceasar individuals I was getting. Most of Cheezie's front teeth are missing but she easily ate through the softened meat after I cut it up to bitesize.. Also, I figured out that for each serving, I will save 42 Cents!!! OVER ONE HALF of what I was paying! Thank you...going to try the budget recipe next time! ONE QUESTION: I will feed her 1/3 cup in the morning and wonder what you suggest for the evening since you mentioned dogs should not have organ meats all the time.
The amount of organ meat in most my meals is not going to be too much. But, I usually feed some raw meat and bones (may be hard for your dog) fresh caught fish when I go fishing, and I make homemade dehydrated muscle and organ meat for treats (also maybe too hard for your dog). You may want to stick to just the soft foods. Just make sure to have a food variety, make food slightly different every batch. I don't use any supplements, but for your dog with missing teeth, you may want to add a little powdered dog vitamins to your home cooked meals for peace of mind.
I've cooked Steve(my great dane) food from scratch several times, and it's honestly a lot of fun, arguably cheaper than store bought(40-80 dollars a bag that he burns through in a week or two), and it makes him super happy. Dog kibble always seemed kinda cruel to me. People will use the hypothetical question to each other, "If you could only eat one food for the rest of your life, what would it be?" I can guarantee no dog would choose kibble. There's a reason dogs have a tendency to beg for "people food", their food isn't very good. I hope it becomes more commonplace to feed dogs actual food, not a bag of dry flavorless pellets.
You have very well educated pups and they are well fed I made dog food for my pups too but add a lot of veggies steamed and also sardines or tuna they eat twice a day and are healthy but old. Thanks for the video
My Yorkie is 14, only eat human food all her meals, I make it twice a month in the instant pot, also try to add turmeric when cooking it dose miracles for older dogs joints, she still runs around the house all the time and barks a storm when she hear the mailman outside
Thanks sharing this homemake for dog everything very delicious and yummy
Food for dog your dog are so lucky
Somebody giving HEALTHY food
I add a small amount of kibble and one probiotic in with your recipe to ensure they get some vitamins I don't add. One of my dogs has issues with processed poultry by products but now, No more ear infections! Lasts me about two weeks for my three dogs and it's about $10 cheaper than the canned food with mystery meat. Thumbs up!
Glad to hear!
I love these videos please continue making them
Thank you for this recipe for my boy Max… I’m amazed how good they were waiting for you to say OK 👍
They both devoured their dinner lol 🐶
No one ever mentions how much (how many lbs per day) to feed a Pitbull pup or dog…. Not how many times you feed per day but how much do you really need to feed them per day. Not looking at the recommended feeding on the bags.
General rule os 2 to 4 percent of dogs body weight per day. Depends on age, breed, activity level, etc.. 3 percent is good starting point.
There eating fast enough they act like there starving but I know there not I'm saying they like it so much cause anyone who has dogs that like that and r so well behaved and cooks food like that 4 there dog that's how it should be 4 dogs and all animals thank u so much for being such an awesome dog owner those seem to be getting rarer and rarer fast god bless thanks for sharing God bless u and your dogs of course
I like this thanks. Switching my dogs from kibble. I can't imagine eating cereal every meal and snack even if I get to chose different cereal every time. I also can't imagine kibble being healthier than even just feeding my dogs our leftovers so I'm jumping into homemade/raw dog food.
Kibble creates toxins when cooked in high temperatures and kibble gets cooked in high temperatures. After it's packed in bags it sits in the warehouse possibly for months where it can grow mold and fungus. Not very appealing. Please check out, (Pet Fooled). It's a documentary about the pet food industry, kibble and canned. Canned is just as bad.
I recently moved out and got a dog to help my mental health. Its perfect. No matter how tired I am, i know i have my doggie son to feed and walk, so he pushes me just a bit past my limit every day. Im still super poor, so today i used what was in my kitche. To hold me over to payday tomorrow! Awesome video!
I have oatmeal, chicken thighs, blueberries, salmon, eggs, and 1 cup of kibble for a 7 month old great pyrenees
I wish my dogs listen to me like yours 😂 I have been cooking for my dogs since 2006. So glad found you and add more recipes for my babies. Would appreciate if you can add ingredients list to your next video. Thank you!
As someone that works in with animals and has a degree in animal nutrition, I’m glad that you stated at the beginning of your video to check with their local vet. I’m tired of random influencers making a video with zero understanding of how to put together a well balanced meal for their dogs. I’m glad to see a video of someone that made a balanced meal for their dogs. The chicken nugget part was cute 😊
This video just popped up and I’m glad I saw it🙂
The problem with vets though is most don't have proper education in nutrition. Instead they push horrible ingredient prescription food.
Thank you for sharing this I'm just about finished cooking it. We will see how my dog likes it . I think she will love it. I also think it will be very good for her. Thank you again. I was having a hard time trying to find something good for her to eat.
I wish you would do a video on the meals for the entire day! You said this is only for breakfast, what about the rest of the day?
Thank you for the video
