When I was growing up we fed our dogs leftovers soups, stews, roasts, & eggs from supper with a small amount of dog food. They lived to be 14 & 15 years old & were very active & loved. Glad to see you ( Dr. Jones ) sharing your food with sweet girl Tula.
We feed our dog the same way and she is 12 not a single health problem and still out running the puppies at the park
I haven’t heard the term “ supper” in about forty years.
@@donaldwigglesworth5885 LOL..so your last "supper" was forty years ago....
Same here. I feed our dog leftovers primarily meat that my little boy didn’t eat. I didn’t want to throw it away so I feed it to our dog. I give our dog a variety of foods.
We eat food that is pretty tame. I am diabetic so we try to stay healthy. Our furry boy eats what we eat. He loves his veggies and will eat them until he pops.
I just went to see the vet for my dogs rabies shots and she told me it was best not to feed my dogs table scraps and how bad my free range eggs were for my dogs. I so wanted to show her this video. I didn’t even have my phone with me but if it’s ok to share this on my Facebook page I will. We need to get the word out to pet parents like myself who absolutely love my babies and live to care for them. The dog food industry, which is making a “killing”! is killing our fur babies, and it has to stop. I didn’t feed my kids packaged food and I’m sure the hell not going to feed my fur kid’s packaged food. I didn’t sit and argue with her, but she’s wrong so wrong. Thanks for supporting us and teaching us how to feed our fur babies, because it’s scary. I know I want the best for my two fur babies. I sure hope more people stand up for the ones who don’t have a voice. “ well should I say a voice most humans don’t understand, my fur kids actually talk pretty good.” I understand them better than most humans. 😉
During the pandemic’s supply chain issues, I put my girls on a rotation of about four different dog foods-no corn, wheat or soy-but also no legumes in the first five ingredients. I also started feeding about one-third to half high protein/veggie homemade food. My lab stopped itching; my husky has a better appetite. Both are lean and energetic. I home pressure-can ground meat/carrots/green beans for when we have to travel, kennel or have a dog sitter. Their favorite treat? Splitting a can of sardines in water on top of their food!
Growing up in the 80's and 90's we fed the family dogs (mostly German Shepherds) from the dinner table; they ate what we ate minus the deserts and they lived beyond their mid- teens. My first dog, with a family of my own, died just 2 months shy of his 4th b.d. With our two year old shepherd-border collie mix I've been feeling the need to make him healthy home made meals, and your video just confirmed the need to act on that hunch. When I announced it to my husband and kids there was a big "WHAT?!"... I told them, no more take out, we're eating what the dog eats. Thanks, doc, you're an inspiration.
I've been making up my large dogs food in my crock pot.....parboiled rice, skinless/boneless chicken thighs, sweet potatoe, carrots, green beans.....yes it requires a little more work, but it has become pretty easy. Make a big batch in the crock pot, store in the fridge for 3 days. I also sprinkle in some joint pain glucosamine powder I got from the health store....and my dogs love cod liver oil capsules as their treats. Even my cat eats the same diet and they all love it....each dish is licked clean. Buy whatever meat and veggies that are on sale, same with veggies. As a snack I might feed them some apple. My old boy is 12 1/2 years old and a very large breed, his coat is very shiny which tells me he is eating well and pretty healthy, when I was told he would only live until about 10 yrs old (bonus years), he is worth any extra effort.
No calcium?
Dr. Jones, you are truly a gifted treasure to all pets and pet owners. Peace.
I hope your joking
Peas, beans, pea starch, legumes, potatoes and sweet potatoes have replaced the grains as the carbohydrate in most dog foods. These block the function of taurine. Taurine deficiency and dilated cardiomyopathy

Thank you Dr. Jones. I was waiting for this.
Thank you so much for this!!!! 🐶
Thank you so much for sharing this!!!!!
After adopting a dog with severe food allergies, I am relieved and happy to see a vet that thinks raw is a healthy part of a varied diet for dogs. A raw based diet with a unique protein (llama) pretty much saved my dog from a life of misery and yeast infections. I've been lectured harshly by a couple of vets about raw, when all the reading I did pointed that it would be beneficial. He now has a more varied diet, as we've found more foods he is okay with, and is a completely different pet than when we first got him. I'm impressed with your food and supplement recommendations, keep up the good work!
great Channel Dr Jones. thanks for all the helpful info on holistic pet care.
Thank you for caring so much about the furkids!
Thank you for getting the word out. My little girl was becoming so lethargic that I was beginning to worry. I saw the uc Davis study. Switched her diet to a lamb and rice kibble and 2 weeks later she's back to her old self
Yes I do the same, I feed my Dog what I eat and also a high quality dry food. He loves beef, chicken, pork, shrimp and crab. He also loves fruits such as watermelon peaches, pears and flesh from cherries. His poops are perfect. Just like us whole foods and low carbs are also good for dogs, but they should have mostly meat. Blessings to you and your pets.
Thank you for your presentation, I’ve been trying different ways to make food for my dogs.
Thank you so very much I have been so stressed I really appreciate all you have told me Love your videos this has settled my ♡
I have been making my dogs their own food for years. Beef, mutton, venison or chicken mixed with wild rice, roasted carrot and squash. My last two dogs (a Shih Tsu and a Doxie) lived 17 & 18 years. I now have adopted a Black Lab and a Rhodesian Ridgeback / English Mastiff cross. Both are doing wonderful. I also make them jerky treats and peanut butter oatmeal cookies made with just oatmeal, peanut butter and honey. I make big batches of their food and treats and freeze them. I love your channel and I use many of the remedies you teach.
Wanda, if I give you my email would you give me more detail on your recipe. Much appreciated. Thank you!
Would you be willing to give the recipe here. I have a 15 week out Shih Tzu who I am struggling to get to eat right, has become very picky.
I make chicken, brown rice , carrot 🥕
My dog got bored of them. She doesn’t want to eat them any more . So I mix wet food as lamb brown rice with boiled chicken , and vegetables, fruit smoothies
@@beautiful20106 Oh yes the boredom usually is on the 2nd day here. I do struggle with what am I going to make her today and there is no guarantee she will eat it if it's not her flavor for the day. It's pretty darn frustrating.
@@beckiwildeman600
If you have a puppy esp important in a homemade diet to balance the phosphorous in protein with calcium ( plain calcium carbonate is best absorbed)so that their bones develop strong.
The ratio is 250mg calcium per 4 oz of animal protein or 1Gram per pound of animal protein.
Dr Jones has,a supplement to add to homemade food to balance it
Also Dr Karen Becker is ex excellent from MercolaPets.com and yoi can find her on UA-cam.
I love the excitement doc gets when he was feeding Tula😄
Thanks doc brought me smile while im sad about my sick dog hes more than my son
Thanks for the informative video
Thank you so much God bless you♥️♥️
Great info! Thanks!
Yes the only kibble I would sell was nature's variety their kibble and raw was great and my biggest seller. Thank you for this
Thank you so much for taking the time to post this beautiful video and letting us know what you feed to your dogs.
GOD a bless you and your beautiful family.
Thank you for sharing this information.. !😃
Welcome
We love your channel & admire what you do & what you’ve done to stand up for what’s right. Are there any recommended foods for dogs that you know of in Australia or what to look for on the label?
I love and very much appreciate all of the tutorials you provide for us. I follow your channel exclusively. Thank you.
Me too! I stopped bringing my animals to the vet and do it all at home with good natural everything! Absolutely love Doc Jones and his truths.
Aloha Dr Jones, just found you on UA-cam and I just love all your videos. I stumbled across the 10 healthy dog foods and was wondering if you have a suggestion for a food without chicken. I currently feed my boxers Taste of the Wild Venison and legume formula. Mahalo!
Awesome! I am on the right track, at least. Thank you!
Great video very well said. Thanks
You're most welcome!
Thank you for sharing. I have a bison farm near me and they sell raw dog food. The ingredients are
Bison, chicken, pork, carrot, squash, cabbage, broccoli, raw egg, fish oil, kelp, alfalfa.
Funny question do u know if they ship and if they do Can u share The link thanks
@@billiepembor7707 I'll be ck'g back! Looking for a good raw food source, too!
Thank you for your content! So mixing or switching from raw to kibble doesn’t mess anything up? Like ph levels or digestion issues?
Thank you Doc, I needed this information.
Happy to help! Please feel free to share this video.

@@niteblaster1which dry dog is healthy? With out all that
Appreciate the info and your efforts Doc!
Cheers for this, I been tryin to find out about "is hill's science diet aafco approved?" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Ever heard of - Sonannah Curious Smasher - (do a google search ) ? It is a good exclusive guide for discovering how to unlock the secret the dog food industry is hiding minus the hard work. Ive heard some super things about it and my brother in law got amazing results with it.
Oh my goodness thank you for this video! I've been trying to do my research but I felt like I was still at a lost.
Thank you for the information, Doctors!
Welcome
OMG, Tula is adorable.
Thank you for all your good information. My dog is named Howard, a 10 year-old bullterrier.
She sure is! You're most welcome!
I’ve always fed my Boston chicken as the exclusive protein, brown rice as the only grain, and an assortment of veggies. Kibble, with fresh toppings. He’ll be 11 next month. He’s totally fit, and runs around like a puppy. People are always asking me how old my puppy is!
He spent his first 7 years running free in a rural life. The proper diet and plenty of exercise, like in humans, are the keys.
Great video!! Thank you very much for helping us feed our animals better!
Thank you for the info and for your e-book.
You’re welcome! Hope you find them helpful!
Thank you for giving us options that aren’t Hill’s Science Diet, Royal Canin, and Purina Pro Plan. I understand why vets like these options as they’re formulated for different pet stages. But they have corn and other fillers.
Your the BEST VET I HAVE EVER SEEN OR LISTEN TO ! GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY, AND GODS CREATURES.
Thanks Louise
@@VeterinarySecrets Your respected, admired, and the apple of Gods eye. Bless you and your family.
Thank you....Enjoyed .
Sadly my beautiful Aussie passed on only a week after turning 11. He had a heart attack just as we started our nightly walk, not even 300 yards from the house. I'm convinced he had DCM or it was a contributing factor. I always varied the brands of dog food and cooked for him occasionally and fed him table leftovers, but nearly always bought him grain free kibble or grain free canned. He had a sensitive stomach and had problems with regular kibble. Sadly the report linking grain free food came out 5 months after his death. Sure enough nearly all the brands he ate had peas and/or lentils. We have a new dog (almost out of puppyhood) and I really appreciate that you took the time to make this list. She and I both thank you.
Sorry for your loss, J.P.
Thank you so much for this important information! I felt clueless as to what to feed my dog and started cooking my own food for her but I don't think I am doing a good job with the recipes. She eats it, but her stool has a LOT of rice in it and she was becoming constipated on just beef and rice. It is nice to know I have some dry food options for my pup!
Aren't you cooking the rice? Add vegetables
Any vet I have ever taken my dogs to ask me what I feed them. The first time I was asked this, It concerned me because I thought I was doing something wrong!
The vet said “ No, no, no, I was asking because your dogs are healthy. Their eyes are bright, no redness around the white of the eyes, their bloodwork is great, and they seem so vibrant in their coats! “
I have followed the same regime since day one in February of 2006, when I got my oldest one, who was 3 months old at the time. I fed purina puppy chow( dry), and also gave every other day or so, one pouch of pedigree puppy ( wet), and a small portion of meat and/ or vegetables from our dinner table after we ate . I boil chicken, shred and give occassionally. As adult dogs , I have given Purina Dog chow ( dry), and pedigree canned adult (wet). My oldest is now about to turn 14 years, and he woke up at 6:30 this morning all bouncy and playful! Ready to “ tour” the yard to get his morning exercise, and he is a miniature Schnauzer, salt/pepper in color! Most all owners of schnauzers have lost theirs at or around age 11-12 years! Even the lady who got her schnauzer from the same breeder I did!
Consistancy, I think has been the best thing for my dogs diet! He loves steak, rice, vegetables , chicken , and dairy products from the table, my husband has ALWAYS shared toast and butter with them almost every weekend morning! Moderation, is the key!
I also give rawhide chews with chicken jerky for their teeth, they get beggin strips for a softer treat, and this is not a daily thing always!
Growing up, our outside dogs only had table scraps, leftover scraps, NEVER did my parents purchase dogfood from a store, and we had the healthiest dogs in the neighborhood, who lived LONG productive lives!
I rarely give shots, or deworm mine, and unless absolutely necessary, they never get rabies shots! My Schnauzer has lost a few teeth, and now has one fatty tumor at age 13 1/2 yrs old! But, he gets around like he is a puppy! 😊
Vaniecia Ferguson I don’t hunt where cannI get Venison?
Yuck!
Good for you, you happened to get a dog who can very well tolerate the trash food you feed them.
I am 52 yrs old and as long as I can remember my parents and I both gave all our dogs Purina Dog Chow and our dogs lived healthy long lives. I recently listened to people about the feeding craze of feeding "Grain Free" foods to our two Boxers. Well since then we have given our two boxers 4-Health grain free and one of them collapsed in the back yard while playing with our other dog, we ran to him, I picked him up in my arms and as he drept over my arms Limp (Dead) we were crying and my wife started patting his chest and he came back to life with his eyes wide open and couldn't stand up but slowly regained consciousness. Then we switched to Nutro and just a week ago he almost done it again so no more of the So Called "Good Healthy Food" BS.... This never happened before on that "Trash Food" as some say.... But ironically some of the foods mentioned in this video as SAFE are mentioned in the FDA list of foods...Here is the list along with the cases of each food: Acanna 67 -- Zignature 64 -- Taste of the wild 53 -- 4Health 32 -- Earthborn Holistic 32 -- Blue Buffalo 31 -- Natures Domain 29 -- Fromm 24 -- Merrick 16 -- California Natural 15 -- Natural Balance 15 -- Orijen 12 -- Natures Variety 11 -- Nutrisource 10 -- Nutro 10 -- Rachael Ray Nutrish 10 Now people can say don't trust the FDA and all that but I for one am not going to take a chance of my dogs dropping in our back yard over this shit... Ask yourself this one very question: "How come that "Trash Food" Purina Dog Chow isn't on that list?
@@GNSperformance Damn... dude, I think you have a z-z-zombie dog! I've never heard of dogs coming back to life after dying -- but it's probably all the Purina, yeah? Apparently, it can resurrect the dead.
Tula is ADORABLE! The way she is looking at the camera at the end is too much cuteness! Thank you for this information.💗
Thanks
Thanks Andrew great information I'm going to save this video👍 I switched Chloe to Nutro but it doesn't say Ultra
Thank you for this. I lost my Rottie/Pit mix due to something and we never got to find out what happened. He was eating Nutro grain free. It’s scary nowadays to know what to feed.
My dog's itching was crazy at 2 years old. My vet said switch to grain free. I tried several. When I hit upon Nutro Grain Free, all itching stopped. He did great for years. Now he's 11-/12, lethargic, takes much-shortened walks and breathes loud and heavy all night. Just returned from the vet and initial diagnosis is grade 3 heart murmur, without any testing, just listening to his heart with the stethoscope. He also took blood and I'll get results today. He's a border collie.
@@goanniegirl I'm sorry for your pup's health struggles. Was his diet exclusively the Nutro Grain Free kibble? Or did he also eat other foods on a regular basis? May I ask, Does your vet contribute the heart condition to the grain free diet?
I'm trying to make a decision for my own 2 year old GSD with regard to which and how much, kibble should be in her diet.
Taurine is the missing ingredient that has resulted in this with cats and dogs!
Meat and or fish, supplement
I feed raw/homemade myself, but your videos have greatly cleared up the heart disease issue with some commercial feeds. Even my vet sent an email about the issue. But only your videos made the issue clear enough to make a better choice. Glad I feed raw for lots of reasons, and this issue is yet another one.
Hello, I have a 5 months GSD puppy and want to know about feeding raw, I have heard that it is best to feed the dog cooked food because in case he is used to raw he'll in case of attack , won't hesitate to eat a human! This is the culture for raising a dog in my town, hope you can tell me what are the reasons you know about raw food
@@xavi9933
Raw food is inferior
It has less protein much harder to digest
It's just an idle way of feeding your dog
If you have children your dog will have rancid blood around its mouth especially dangerous if it's chicken, The only reason human jumped several hundred thousand years in evolution is because we started cooking food
This is what David Attenborough said,
I've noticed my dogs are skinnier when I used to feed raw, And I had to feed 40% more food
Thank you fir clarifying
Thank You Tula 😚🤗
Thanks for this list.
Both of my girls seem to do best on Salmon. One of my dogs has a history of colitis and seems to benefit from rice and from fiber. I’ve been feeding them Instinct salmon and rice, which does have peas, but they’re in the 7th position. I top it with Stella and chewy’s beef and salmon patties. It’s always hard to know what’s ideal, but they seem to be doing well and I think this is a decent balance for them.
@bags: of all the fresh food, my dog loves salmon. But even salmon must be investigated.
We love giving spirulina to our poodle and mix it with different raw foods and some kibbles. Thanks for the list and super nice meeting you!
Thanks so much @The Flute Channel - Great meeting you as well :-)

The FDA did the same study in cats decades ago and the conclusion was there was low amounts of taurine in their food. Taurine comes from meats, US standards don’t have enough taurine in a feeding. Go with a food from Europe (farmina is one of them), and do a taurine supplement such as chicken heart or beef heart! ❤️🐶
Your dog is beautiful, what face precious 🐾🐾😘
She is so cute. Thanks for the guide.
thank u so much for the info im gona be able to give my dogs the best foods so far. im so happy i get to give them this they deserve the best of everything their really nice dogs who are really happy to be around me and they love to be around me they care so much about me they make me so happy and ill give it everything i have to give them the best life ever.

Instinct is just about the best brand out there. For some reason, they discontinued the Ultimate Protein for dogs, which was the best; they still make it for cats. The cat formula is the same as for dogs. I have 4 cats and 3 ferrets and the Ultimate Protein is my #1 choice, the Go! my second.
I wonder sometimes if the problem with dog and cat food is that we have a tendency to buy a particular kind and then feed them the exact same thing for years. We are taught as humans to eat a wide variety of healthy foods. Not the same thing, prepared the same way, the same ingredients, day after day.
Love your videos. Thank you.
Glad you like them!
My dog was diagnosed with MC lymphoma in his stomach he was only 4 years old, we rescued him three years ago, we are perplexed to why he developed this form of cancer. Although the vet thought it was an abcess that was causing peritonitis, when she opened him up she determined it was cancer within his stomach that was too large to remove and suggested euthanasia. We are so sad and were so surprised with the many diagnosis that lead to this one. Would this be a congenital type of cancer. He ate raw, cooked meat and dry food, he preferred homemade food. He was a terrier mix, Schnauzer possibly. He was the sweetest natured dog, I am still in shock. 💔

There are some of us who do not have time to make dog food. My dog is allergic to chicken, salmon, beef, all grains and turkey. We have been feeding her Orijen and Acana that do not have the ingredients to which she’s allergic. To be honest her health improved immensely after we switched her to these foods. She is 12.5 years old and walks 2 miles 4-5 days per weeks and sometimes even longer on the weekend. I hate to see anyone lose their pets because it is heart breaking. I have been there. I get it. However, IMHO 500 cases out of the millions of people using these dog foods doesn’t seem like enough to make a definitive correlation that the food is the culprit. If I read the report correctly, they can’t say for sure. What do you suggest for folks with dogs that have multiple allergies .
kylasbibi: the question I would want solved is why my dog has so many allergies.
Find the cause, find the cure.
Could it possibly be from vaccines? Allergies are a reaction of the immune system, meaning the immune system is not functioning properly.
Could you plz share the name of the pre-packaged frozen raw food in the video? Thank you!
I have a GSD and a Westy that has allergies don’t know exactly what from, the Westy is on row meat no chicken or beef the GSD is on half raw meat & beef tripe and dry food I always thought tripe is very nutritious can you comment on that please
@@ellensteiger2199 2 different dogs with allergies sound environmental. Don't stop looking at food but look at other things too, for example; Swifter the dust mop.

How do you know that all of your dogs dietary needs are met. Are you a qualified vet or canine nutritionist? I barely manage to feed myself with varying success. I'd be concerned not getting it right and causing issues in the long run.
@@angelfoodcake1979 - You can use NRC guidelines, build a spread sheet on Excel and then use a nutrient tracker like Cronometer. Even most vets would have zero idea how to make sure a pet was getting all their macros without that process.
@@KrystalessR very true. But from speaking to people who do cook for their dog, I see no such thing happening. It's internet recipes from random blogs all the way and then see whatever happens. I find that concerning more so than the fresh food. My dog gets fresh food, but I order it from a local company that does exactly all that checking and lab analysis on the food. It's customisable by needs of the individual animal. I don't think I'd feel confident to do all this properly by myself.
@@angelfoodcake1979 - For the prices those companies charge you could feed a premade raw. Following NRC guidelines isn't as hard as you think. The hardest part is if you ever want the full micronutrient profile on a premade food you may be using. None of them seem to have all of it available, which is slightly worrisome. The Honest Kitchen is the only company I've ever found all the info I was looking for.
I do understand though that not everyone would feel confident doing it themselves.
@@KrystalessR probably right about the price to value. But no, I don't feel confident to do it myself. I'm also not US based, so I'm not aware of the company you mention. I'm aware of the global AFFCO and our FEDIAF. I guess the standard you mentioned is similar.
Thank you for this very helpful guidance. What do you think of Zignature single source protein brand?
Thank you Dr Jones, always appreciate the care and wisdom
You're most welcome, Steve!
Not sure if you’ve already answered this in another video but can you explain the ingredients and specific foods dogs should have in their diet? When you are making homemade food, how do you know Tula is getting adequate nutrients?
Hi- I will follow up with another video highlighting key ingredients. Rule of 1/3 protein, 1/3 veggies, 1/3 healthy carb. What needs to be added is Calcium and healthy fat ( ie sunflower oil and omega 3 supplement)
