I add pumpkin purée and it’s really good for the tummy. Thank you so much for this video I have a 17-year-old dog with dementia and kidney disease. God bless my honey.
You are such a Great Papa to Max. My 15 year old Molly was just diagnosed with Stage 2 kidney failure and your recipe reminded me to grind the food to help her digest it easier.
OMG I am sooo sorry for your loss. YOU WERE SUCH AN AWESOME DOG PARENT! GOD BLESS YOU!!! Thank you for loving MAX soooo much and doing your best in caring for him. Thank you for sharing this delicious and nutritious recipe with us. The only thing I'd change is, boiling the veggies. Microwaves are poison. They completely change the anatomical structure of the food to garbage. Again , sorry that Max had to cross the rainbow bridge. He lives forever in your heart. Thanks again ❤️.
Thank you for your helpful video , I'm new to all this as my nearly 15 year old whippet had just been diagnosed with kidney disease so trying to do all I can to help her 😀
Lesley go ahead and use boneless skinless thighs. Easier to break apart when finished and less phosphorus without the boiled bones. Still keep stock for drinking.
My heart goes out to your daughter I know what she's going through! 20 years ago I had a Lhasa also who was 20 she had kidney failure also blind the vet had me put her on an IV of ringers lactate 3 times a day I would shreek every time I had to stick that needle in her back wait for it to drain into her body then every day the medicine a directive to drain the fluids cart is in for the heart amp hotel for the stomach flavor for the intestines she lived 5 months ! Please this recipe is good no peas bad for the kidneys give this dog fiber with her or her food get a good vitamin look it up for kidney failure ! God BLESS AND GOOD LUCK !

That is a good question. I am speculating at this time. I have not made this recipe since just before thanksgiving when he crossed over. I would estimate around 1/2 lbs for a 4 1/2 - 5 lbs package. 20 % meat protean ratio is good.
Because my moms dog maxx only had two teeth. Same with his soft chew peanut butter pumpkin cookies. Also ground down the food breaks down easier for the nutrients in it.
My 15 year old shih tzu has been diagnosed with kidney disease stage 3, and he didn't like the prescription canned diet. I am going to make this for him.
I've been reading and trying to learn as much as I can about canine nutrition. Is over cooking the chicken bad? The vet I visited said to only cook it 15 minutes.
Dogs system can handle raw chicken. I cook it to death for several reasons. 1st Maxx has 2 teeth. Second I want all the nutrition from the bones for his chicken bone stock i give him 3 times a day. third it is easier to work with and grinds better as well as flakes apart. However doing it the way the vet says is not wrong. I have been feeding this to him for over a year and it works better then anything on the market. without the preservatives. Thank you for viewing, as well as your comment and concern. I do hope this video helps you and gives your pet a long extended comfortable life. I also feed him half his food. then 1 - 2 hrs later give him the other half. twice a day 12 hrs apart. This helps with stomach discomfort if that is something you notice your dog experiencing.
@@AnthonyBreschini I am very grateful for your detailed response. 🙏 it helps me understand how we can best understand the needs of our dogs. I have just subscribed and will be a regular viewer so that my dogs can enjoy healthy meals with safe health. Pls keep doing what you do, it is a great source of learning for so many of us. I recently started reading Judy Morgan's yin and yang, if there are any literature recommendations, would love to see a video on it.
Thank you for watching and the kind words. It is hard to go threw the experiences of getting old. Maxx is almost 115 yrs old. He monopolizes my time these days and I am glad for each one of them. He struggles with his daily routines, and now I assist him in his day. One thing is he sleeps long hours these days. He struggles to stand and stabilize his hind legs. knees and hips riddled in arthritis. Being a dachshund I can carry and hold him pretty easy. These days I get something called udder cream from the pharmacy and rub into the pads of his paws several times a day. Deep into the sides and base of the pads. I did not realize how dried and tender they get with age. I have seen a big improvement in the softness of them.
Thank you for sharing this recipe. My dog was diagnosed about 5 years ago with kidney disease and high blood pressure. He takes medication for both but the vet put him on Hills k/d kibble and we also buy the wet hills canned food. I always give him filtered water after he eats. He does not want to eat the kibble anymore, who can blame him? I am going to try your recipe, I like the idea of drinking chicken stock with water for him. He has been on the Hills diet for five years. He was only two when he got diagnosed. He’s a rescue and my husband and me adore him. We have another rescue who got diabetes and as soon as I get my other dog adjusted to this new diet I will search out one for my diabetic dog. She has to get insulin shots twice a day and eat Royal Canine Kibble and canned. I want my dogs to feel good, but I’m beginning to think this special kibble thing is not working. My dogs I had as a kid ate what my family ate and they were happy and active. God bless you!
This is not a complete and balanced food… Peace are not good for dogs with kidney disease they contain purines… A better choice would be broccoli or green beans and carrots of course.
I know this is a old video hoping to get a response. Recipe in comments says 2 cups but you mention 4 cups in the video. Is it 2 cups of dry rice = 4 cups of cooked rice? Or 4 cups of dried rice?
The FDA issued a warning about legumes and heart disease risk. Should I be worried about that is there something I could substitute the green beans and peas with?
I researched and fed Maxx the dish for over a year and a half. He loved it. As far as heart disease. That was not what was taking him down. Kidneys and liver. It was 20% of the total ingredients added. So small in the grand scheme of things. He ate till the very end. The hardest part is the fine grind. So it could help his body to break it down. as well as his timetable. fed him meals 12 hrs apart for maximum digestion. He also got 1/2 C. Chicken Bone Broth Soup 3 times a day to curb his hunger pains. Also would give him a couple soft chew Peanut butter pumpkin treats.
It wasn't legumes alone as the culprit from what I remember. It's GRAIN FREE diets which are heavy in legumes. Legumes themselves were not suspected to cause heart disease, it was only when grains were not included they found some kind of correlation with heart disease.
@@jasras5003 Grain free the best you could feed your animals but the big companies add a lot of legumes and other fillers ,so they could make up for the protein and that’s what’s not good for our animals,not the grain free food.They don’t need grain especially if you’re feeding cats…
I lost Maxx on 11 - 19 - 21. He was 117 dog yrs old. He passed away laying on my chest looking into my eyes. If your making the dog food. use boneless skinless thighs and boil till pull apart tender.
I'm sorry for your loss. Was a beautiful gesture to be holding and comforting your precious boy in his final hours.. I wish I could say I did the same for my beautiful furbaby Charlie ❤ I now have one 15yo with KD and need to learn all I can to help him in the time left. Thank you for this recipe, I think using the fatless broth the most useful and something I wouldn't have thought to do.
My 18 y.o. pup was recently diagnosed with stage 3 kidney disease. The vet recommended a very pricey prescription diet that would cost over $225 for my 60lbs girl. I've decided to try homemade instead. My question is how much rice is added for each batch? I wasn't as precise with my first batch and I think I added too much rice. I want to be more accurate to develop a more balanced meal. Anybody know of a specific chicken to veggie to rice ratio?
I would avoid coking veggies in plastic bags. I thought fat isn’t really a problem for kidney disease. Why not use whole egg. Much of the vitamins and minerals in the yolk.
I have a 14 yr old just found out about kidney problem. Dog food they want me to get cost 4 dollars a can can't afford it I'm on SSI . This is my mom's dogs my mom passed two yrs ago and took them in 1 passed 2 month ago . Now this one got this problem. Do u heat food up before feeding . Thank u very much for ur show.
I do heat it up. I also use the bone broth soup after boiling the chicken for soup for them. With my Mom's dog Maxx before he passed. I would give 1/2 cup soup 3 times a day heated. Bone broth soup is good nutrition. Substance without substenance. I also fed him half cup portions of the dog food twice a day. I actually spaced them 12 hrs apart for Max digestive. Was rough because he likes to eat around 3:30 and the am took a few months for me to adjust. Spacing the solid food apart for his body time to digest the previous. I hope this helps and wish you the best. Keep them comfortable in-between. Maxx was a small 🐕
Funny that’s what I thought to and the other day i bought some kidney bladder wellness stuff for my chihuahua and it’s got salt in it which I’m confused about cuz I thought anyone with kidney issues shouldn’t have salt?
Ive got the PICKIEST eater EVER…he would NEVER eat that…he turns up his nose to steak and bacon. I do home cook but he won’t eat anything mucky and must be in pieces of a very certain size and likes things cooked more then I want them to be. He’ll eat broccoli and cauliflower if i put butter on it but that’s it for veggies and won’t eat eggs no matter how I cook them if even tried the butter thing with them and nope.
Peas are no good for the kidneys neither are potatoes ! I had a old girl 20 years old with kidney failure !They must have fiber in there diet the recipe is good he's making but you need fiber !please they have so many new vitamins and minerals that are good for a dog with kidney failure ! Please look it up on the internet ! My dog died 25 years ago I did what the vet told me to do but there was a lot of IV s boxes of ringer lactate heart medicine diuretics amp hotel flagle ! My God she live 5 months with complete kidney failure ! That was25 years ago ! There are many things on the internet that I didn't have like vitamins and minerals that are available for dogs with kidney failure ! God help all those who have a dog with kidney failure its no easy task !
I add pumpkin purée and it’s really good for the tummy. Thank you so much for this video I have a 17-year-old dog with dementia and kidney disease. God bless my honey.

Next time I bow my head I will talk with the man upstairs, I'll fondly ask for his grace to be bestowed upon you and your darling Honey.

how many pounds of pressure cooked chicken do you end up with after debone and removing fat?
That is a good question. I am speculating at this time. I have not made this recipe since just before thanksgiving when he crossed over. I would estimate around 1/2 lbs for a 4 1/2 - 5 lbs package. 20 % meat protean ratio is good.
So sorry for your loss. Thank you for this video. I just wonder why this food need to be grind ?
Because my moms dog maxx only had two teeth. Same with his soft chew peanut butter pumpkin cookies. Also ground down the food breaks down easier for the nutrients in it.
What type of paper to filter the fats from the chicken stock? Are there other ways to filter it?
Paper towels all I used.
@@AnthonyBreschini I see. Thank you.
W
Why do you grind it?
Because he has two teeth

2 cups dry

You should ONLY be adding sodium free veggies. My Scotty and I both have CKD and sodium is always a big NO NO for dogs.

Good recipe but eliminate the peas they are very bad for a dog !So are potatoes I know your not using potatoes but my vet says no peas no potatoes !
I noticed that Hills Science diet has peas in their stew canned food
