The only nutritionally BALANCED homemade dog food (featuring 5 AAFCO tested recipes)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 тра 2024
- AS SEEN ON TV! While some untested and unproven recipes for making home-made dog food exist, these are the only recipes that are veterinary developed and approved and have undergone humane AAFCO feeding trials at Cal Poly Pomona University. Don't take your chances with you dogs' nutrition - It All Starts with Nutrition. Visit www.justfoodfordogs.com to order what you need to get started right away!
As a nutritionist, I see this video in a far different light. I see a pet food industry that is panicked at the prospect of people making their own dog food and figuring out a way to cash in on it. DIY means Do It Yourself, not Buy It From Us.
Just a few mins into the video I see foods like Mac noodles. Rice, corn, and synthetic vitamins, which is total trash foods and supplements for ur dog on top of the cooking process that destroys vitamins. This food is a big pass for me!
@@michellemooney1460 They yet have to learn
AAFCO also approved Purina Dog Chow, so.....yeah. That's not saying much.
it's nutritionally balanced and meets nutrition requirements for dogs, regardless of how you feel about the ingredient profile.
I agree. AAFCO has extremely low standards, so this isn’t exactly saying much. If “Ol Roy” and “Gravy Train” meet AFFCO standards I would be a tad leery.
Purina goes beyond AAFCO it also meets WSAVA guidelines. It has decades of science behind their formulas.
Hannah Sears Have you read the ingredients in Purina foods? Plenty of them contain artificial colors, sugar, corn syrup, and high fructose corn syrup. None of those are at all heathy for them whatsoever.
@@mercifulrabbit5175 You can't go by ingredient list, alone. Again, I'll go with Science, Board Certified Nutritionists and decades of research over someone's interpretation of ingredients. Also, not every Purina product contains those ingredients you mentioned.
My Bichon and Goldendoodle are super happy with their new food. After a terrible experience with Nutro kibbel we made the change to DIY kits. Thank you!! Now if we could just work on getting legislation passed for safer airplane travel (NO my furry babies are not cargo!)
I’ve been looking for a product like this! Thank you!!
Make sure you cool the food completely before putting it into toxic plastic bags. YES the chemicals from the plastic will leach into the food, even more so when warm. I only store my dogs food in glass.
Excellent point. I was thinking of using my Mason jars, but not sure I want to freeze them. What about BPA free plastic freezer containers?
Great Video! Sorry for the intrusion, I would love your thoughts. Have you heard the talk about - Parlandealey Pets Yummy Process (probably on Google)? It is a smashing one of a kind guide for discovering healthy recipes for dog food without the hard work. Ive heard some amazing things about it and my work colleague finally got excellent success with it.
Good idea! I also think so.
I store my homemade dog food in small Tupperware bowls.
Excellent Video clip! Forgive me for the intrusion, I am interested in your initial thoughts. Have you heard about - Parlandealey Pets Yummy Process (do a search on google)? It is an awesome one off guide for discovering healthy recipes for dog food minus the normal expense. Ive heard some unbelievable things about it and my work buddy got excellent success with it.
What would be the difference between your sache and multi vitamin products for dogs? I have always fed my dogs raw food with some cooked pasta, rice, potatoes and vegetables and added multi vitamin suplements for dogs. Also they get eggs, olive oil, greek yogurth, turmeric, low sodium canned tuna as supplements regulary. So what makes this sache different, what type of ingredients does it have? Thanks for your answer.
Not able to find the supplements on the website i wonder if they stopped making them!
The moment i read Aafco approved in the title i became concerned they approved freaking purina kibble and stuff
Aafco only makes sure the nutrients and minerals are what is necessary to make sure your pet is deficient...they don't control the shitty ingredients that go into most of these foods...as long as the minerals and nutrients are in there at minimum amounts it will be approved
They lost me at potato. Extensive research proved to me that potatoes are not good for dogs. Sweet potatoes are good but not regular. I came here looking for a healthy meal for my dogs especially the one who has perianal fistula and that is one of the main foods they say to avoid is potatoes. I'll stick with the other info that I've researched so far.
Although, I'll play Devil's Advocate, the title for the company does say 'veterinary developed' not holistic, raw or herbal. I love our regular vet but even he has admitted that he doesn't really know anything about herbal healing for pets. It's just not their forte'.
Rene Strantz agree 100% to much carbs
Yeah my new holistic vet says only 10% of the meal can contain carbs. She also says half of the veggies should be greens like kale, spinach or collard greens. My regular vet doesn't know anything either. Just like allopathic doctors, they have no nutrition education.
@@ellesbells902 also leafy greens shouldnt be eaten often by most dog species and some kinds should be avoided all together
I don't know if you have found your healthy dog food choice yet, but I recommend raw.
Most vets get 1 day of nutrition training and usually that will be funded by a particular brand. Kibble (complete) is probably the worst food to feed dogs
Your goal would be met even more if you provided the recipe including the amount and types of added nutrients as opposed to adding your 'nutrient blend'. Some people would still buy your blend for convenience, just like they buy seasoning blends in the store.
Helping people to have the ability to further self reliance would make you a more trusted company. When I see 'proprietary blend' on any label, it automatically creates distrust for me. I don't see that as an attempt to help people, I see that as an attempt to make money and I see fear that your customer might come more educated than you like.
I wander how dogs in the wild survive without assorted supplements, Hmm
Lol ikr
Wolves have different dietary needs than dogs. And through the thousands of years of evolving with humans, dogs have become omnivorous and can digest many of the same enzymes as humans. This is because for most of dog history they simple ate the extra food off of human plates.
Dogs in the wild dont survive on just kibble either
Dogs in the wild don’t live very long so I’m not sure if we should be incorporating the “homeless” dog diet for our beloved pooches. They provably run into deficiencies that cause shorter lifespans.
Lovely Video! Excuse me for chiming in, I would love your opinion. Have you ever tried - Parlandealey Pets Yummy Process (Sure I saw it on Google)? It is a smashing one of a kind product for discovering healthy recipes for dog food without the hard work. Ive heard some awesome things about it and my close friend Aubrey after a lifetime of fighting got astronomical results with it.
Approximately how many cups are in the full 30 pound batch
i live in toronto canada did you sell the diy packet outside usa when i can find the home number if any body know i will apreciated thank
whats inside the sachet?
I live in India & am eager to seek ur advice regarding the food I prepare :or my pet beagle which is 23 months of age & weighs 13 kgs.
No actual recipes are shown, just ingredients.
Go to a holistic vet and you will be given a diet for your dog which is based on their specific nature and issues. Best $150 I EVER spent.
Uh I think that would give their recipes away..would you? Didn't think so.
Check out the just food for dogs website they have a DIY section
@@flowersflowers5070
They actually do Give the recipe away in the DIY section
I'm on the website now looking at the recipes :)
TY for sharing
Awesome clip! I have the good thing for all of the dog owners: It is possible to make your puppy live more time to 8.3 years by changing the food they take in.
You can go to my website beneath to learn why:
bit.ly/secrets-about-dog-food
If you find your dogs end up getting skin issues from this food take them off it for a few weeks. Our dogs developed major yeast issues and had hair on their face fall out. Waaaay too much sweet potato in the beef recipe. Also, the issue with not making food yourself is that you can't control that actual quality of the beef. I was never able to get certainty from the Just Food for Dogs people regarding hormones etc in the food. Certainly the veggies are not organic so pesticides are also an influence.
I have been through the DIY dog food phase with a nearly identical recipe and have now graduated my dogs to a combination between (raw) bone, meat and organ meats and occasional high quality kibble for vitamins and minerals.
I have a dog with sever allergies. He is allergic to EVERYTHING! Would this company be able to provide recipes that cater to his specific needs?
Tell me where to get it
I love the idea... But $20 is way too much for a recipe and some nutrient powder. I might pay $8
if we are going to add powders and crap to the recipe, we might as well go back to buying commercial dog food.
@@LoriFahy that's where your wrong. They put all kinds of fillers and meals that can include road kill and euthanized animals! Plus fat content is much too high that lead to health issues for my little one. This is why pets are not living the longer years compared to decades ago and they say 90% of dogs get cancer in today's world. I just recently began cooking for my little Yorkie who came down with IBD and that lead to a pancreatitis attack that put her in the hospital for 2 days. Since I started cooking for her she is like a new puppy. She's 8. I have her on a very low fat diet and she hasn't had one bout of IBD. She is happy and so am I. Just need to make sure she gets the calcium and vitamins she needs.
U not will pay for your dog, I think u not suppose to have one, will you pay it for your self or your families for their food? you should treat your dog like they are are also lives
What happened to the raw food diet, especially meats?
To answer Zchu, I believe wild dogs like wolves are evolved to be able to live in the wild without the help of humans to give them supplements. However, domesticated dogs need supplements to live a long and happy life
Sharon Kwan WRONG.True dogs have become domesticated.But their digestive system is not.
What science do you rely on to state that domesticated dogs need supplements?
I didn't see the Yorkie eating. Some Yorkies including mine are real picky - so I was watching for that.
my 83lbs goldendoodle got his frot limb amputated on may 28th about a week ago due to osteosarcome in front wrist. I dont give him any more kibble. I been feeding dr harveys paradigm food for about a week and he loves it but its too expensive cause I still have to add protein and fats. its costing me about $300 a month. I was looking into sundays and if I read right it will be about $179 for a 144oz box that will last him a whole month. Just dont know about nutritional value.? does my cancer dog needs about one gram of protien per pound of body wight?
This is just an advert, not informative. People dont need to take supplements.
Margo O' Mahony most don’t. You’re right
Appreciate Video clip! Apologies for chiming in, I would appreciate your opinion. Have you thought about - Parlandealey Pets Yummy Process (just google it)? It is a smashing one off product for discovering healthy recipes for dog food minus the normal expense. Ive heard some incredible things about it and my friend finally got astronomical success with it.
after its taken out from the refrigerator, do I just serve it to my dog? No need to reheat it? Please advise. Thank you.
reheat it but make sure it’s just room temperature
Never feed your dog cold food. It's a shock to their digestion. It should be room temperature or gently warmed.
This is a great idea. I started feeding fresh food to my senior dog after he had issues with expensive kibbles as he got older, and often worried about supplements. Pet dogs are not in the wild and just like humans needing vitamins we can not easily find in our modern day diet, supplements to compliment fresh homemade food sound great.
Many thanks, I've been looking for "what is the healthiest dry dog food on the market?" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you ever come across - Sonannah Curious Smasher - (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now ) ? It is a good exclusive guide for discovering how to unlock the secret the dog food industry is hiding without the hard work. Ive heard some unbelievable things about it and my co-worker got excellent success with it.
Just the title made me suspicious, and looking at the comments confirmed what I thought.
Kudos for the video content! Sorry for butting in, I would appreciate your initial thoughts. Have you researched - Parlandealey Pets Yummy Process (should be on google have a look)? It is a great one of a kind product for discovering healthy recipes for dog food minus the headache. Ive heard some great things about it and my cooworker finally got amazing results with it.

I’m making my malamutes food using their recipes. He appears happier and more active. However AAFCO guidelines set the bar very low. So that makes me wonder...
what kind of oil it is? and what is the powder?
Look at the website
Any recipe for dog with kidney problem?
It's a good meal. I would add some Taurine to their dish due to controversy about legumes possibly causing dialated cardiomyopathy if there is Taurine deficiency. Also, eliminate some protein for senior dogs because their kidneys can't process high protein. I make a similiar food for my senior dogs but with less protein, substitute potato for sweet potato and add Taurine supplementation. And I add a bit of dog vitamins. They love it.
But what if your dog only eats raw meats meaning not cooked can this still work
Help! I tried this recipe and my baby liked it so much but only after 2 days! After cooking and preparing portions for 5 days and she refused to eat them! I don't wanna waste them and just throw everything away. What's happening and what should I do?
After reading all the comments I've come to know that all these potatoes and starchy food is bad for them. Thank you all! And thank you my furry baby, if I had not listened and watched you ignore that mixture, I wouldn't know how bad it is for you. Let me do more research, ok?
Can I use all-natural coconut oil cooking spray from Trader Joe to cook the meat?
Coconut cooking spray would add a negligible amount of calories, but is not really necessary. I would simply brown the meat directly on the pan, in its own oils.
Dr. Oscar Chavez Okay :) thanks
Great idea, however, PLEASE rethink the packaging. Watch the documentary, "Drowning in Plastic" it's available on UA-cam right now. It talks about "Sachet" packaging. Watch through the discover in the arctic.
My dog has stage 2 kidney disease, do you have recipes for him. I just got him on blood pressure medicine that he needs to take once at night for two weeks then 2x a day for next 2 weeks. and the vet got me to buy prescription dog food for kidneys.
Yvonne Anderson
Yes. Research and a lot of it. Every fiber of America everything is corrupted and poisoned water food including the education institutions be careful of believable opinions most of what we see and hear now is the strong delusion as prophesied it would be in the final era of mankind. Beware of vaccinations and meds.
@@whitecommando2835 - that’s pretty amazing suggestion given where we are now with coerced c-19 vaccines & big pharma ......
@yvonneanderson4164
This is not the right site to go to for integrative/holistic information on food
or medication. Please go to Dr. Katie
Woodley who just organized a world wide PET SUMMIT a couple of months ago. She is in Colorado but can put you in touch with the best holistic vets for your dog's problems. Including nutrition.
And I would specifically research Dr. Margo Roman about the use of medicinal OZONE for your pets kidney issues. She was one of the speakers at the Pet Summit. Ask Dr. Woodley about your ability to go back and listen to speakers from the Pet Summit since
she organized the speakers from across USA and some from England and Ireland. Wish you the best of luck with your pet.
My dog was on this food (delivered) and there just wasnt enough meat ,it was all rice and carrots........i liked the product but i want my dog to have more than a couple spoons full of meat per portion
There's no rice in this product. Additionally, the whole ingredients, such as ground beef, ground turkey, etc are all ingredients YOU purchase at your local grocery store.
Go figure!
Always heard about don't fry the meat boil it, our vet says. Not sure about potatoes, carbs. If they were in the wild they would be eating meat only, right!?
Oh perleaessse!!
I’d like everyone to see that this is from 6 YEARS ago. We’re always finding out new things so obviously these recipes aren’t going to align with today’s dog nutrition standards
Just noticed how old this is. Lots should have advanced.
I just started making my dog’s food using their supplements and recipe and it’s the same from this video. I’m continuing to look for other recipes as these contain a lot of potatoes or rice depending on the recipe.
If you use corn and white rice, forget it!
Could olive oil be used?
Yes, I would use organic coconut oil , in moderation
No greens?
Can i get ur DIY sachet online?
Do you sell puppy food?
I’m all about learning and improving. I’m not so stubborn that I can’t take advice. But at the same time I’m not one to be played for a fool. Dogs have been around for thousands of years. The Commercial Dog Food Industry has been around only for a couple of hundred years. More like 160 years to be exact. Where as dogs have been around for over 14,000 years. But since many companies make a profit off of selling people rotten, decayed, and 🦠 diseased meat 🍖 🥩 mixed with all types of chemicals and byproducts and call it dog food. Now the general public no longer knows how to make food to feed dogs? People have been feeding dogs food for thousands of years from their kitchen leftovers and have dogs managed to survive just fine. Truth is...what they’re not saying is that the food that they feed us is garbage to begin with. The American diet is loaded with all types of sugars , salts , fats, and processed additives. Before the commercial food industry was so big the average person didn’t eat that way. So of course when you feed a garbage modern diet to dogs it makes them just as sick as us. This is how dogs now get diabetes when at one point that was unheard of. “Garbage in, garbage out”. It starts with a human eating a healthy whole food diet to begin with in order properly feed a dog healthy food . How can a person know what’s healthy for their dog when they don’t even know whats healthy for themselves?
But humans DON'T have to use supplements... (and since when do you trust the FDA and the USDA to have your best interest as a priority?)
yes we do. that's why, back in the day, they started putting vitamins in cereals and white bread because people weren't getting enough nutrients in their diet.
Wow so $18.00 on top of buying the food just for 30lbs. of food. I have a Siberian Husky and a Bullboxer that would cost me and arm and a leg to feed them. I fix them a 50 dry/ 50 wet homemade and they are completely healthy. They get plenty of calcium from the egg shell powder we make and add to to their homemade. These people are just trying to make a fortune off of us that have decided its cheaper, healthier, and better to make our own. After all what did dogs eat in the wild before manufactured dog food? Yeah that's right they ate Natural Organic food in the wild that wasn't contaminated by pesticides and GMO'S.
yeah thats what we have been doing we have 2 german sheperds and it would cost too much to feed them both all cooked home made food because of all the supplements you have to add.
Can u pls help me with recipes. Id like to start making homemade food for my dog. I dont trust store bought.
I agree, it is pricey.
JasonandLori Derrough Ik it’s not to bad I pay 50 every 2 week for freeze dried raw food for a 16ib dog
save up for your vet bills in 8 years then!
Thank you for this video! Love the info! Sorry for all the negativity acting like they're professionals 😂 keep doin it and keep makin our puppies healthy 💖😘
BillieFrank LMAO
And, like I asked someone else. Are you a Dr. , or a vet?
I had so much plastic waste with baggies. Now I store my dog food in little Tupperware, each one is a daily serving. Theybqash really easily and I label with masking tape and sharpie. That's the only thing I'd change about this video.
This video is a little misleading. DIY packets are $23 shipped unless you order $49 or more from there site. At $23 per packet that is $2.30 per pound, not .17 cents.
Lovely Video! Apologies for the intrusion, I am interested in your thoughts. Have you heard about - Parlandealey Pets Yummy Process (google it)? It is a great one off guide for discovering healthy recipes for dog food without the headache. Ive heard some decent things about it and my GF at last got excellent success with it.
Peas also are blocking taurine absorption ...added taurine DOES NOT HELP because the peas and/or white potatoes BLOCK the absorption
Ingredients/Recipe starts at 6:51
You video feels like an infomercial…
Besides, one can of this food is costing like 5 dollars, and my dog eats more than one.
I can make a lot of good food with that money. And the best part, I am learning a lot in the process.
Wish they had a place like this for people.Wow!! Dogs eat better than me!!!
Well they do! You can order healthy, balanced meal kits delivered to your home, and purchase whole food vitamin/mineral supplements. Or you can just cook healthy meals for yourself. If the dogs are eating better than you, I believe that is your choice of food, yes?
Vet approved? Vets are not trained in nutrition. This would be a special Vet, trained after graduation.
Potatoes?
Ronnie Underhill yesss vet is not equal to vet nutritionist lol
Sous vide baby ! Lol
Why are you adding fruits and starchy vegetables?
there are many natural reciepies that are good and are aafco approvable. to say this is the ONLY ONE is not right. but yes, dog food is not right being made by companies today. can also lead to pesticides being found in it today. dog food is OUTRAGIOUS and as high cost as even natural food is today for humans or pets, might as well cook yourself with high ingrediants and can basically almost feed the whole family. lol might be ok if tiny dog, but would cost a bundle if large one. can almost fix same meals for human family, and just make alittle more for big dogs. love it, just many can not afford to feed family and pay diff price high for big dog like this.
If you wish to keep your dog safe and healthy, you have to know how to pick the best dog food to fit your dog's demands.
Keira Dale With dog food u need to ensure good quality food pot for them
Sadly the difference between a wolf's diet and a dogs is source. Plants that grow wild get all the nutrients they need because they grow where the nutrients are. Animals eat those plants and are in turn eaten and everyone has what they need. Cultivated plants from the store and livestock don't get that benefit hence it isn't as nutritious (This is a general statement and there are exceptions but its hard to know for sure which is which). Unless I grow or raise it myself any being on my farm gets supplements with the food. I'm sure Dr. Chavez as a nutritionist knows this and includes the supplements because she has less control of the source than you do.
ok so this is an old video and I sure hope this product is no longer available. Dogs cannot digest grains AT ALL. The sugars in grains ( I saw pasta in this video! ack!!!!) simply makes a dog obese and has the potential to cause a myriad of serious health problems. Dogs require at least 5 different meat sources of complete WHOLE animals (bones hair skin organs etc. Dogs cannot digest vegetables like we humans can. Vegies need to be partially digested already for dog to be able to process them. In other words fermented. And before someone says oh another negative person... I am a certified dog food specialist. ABSOLUTELY IN NO WAY IS THIS DIET GOOD FOR YOUR DOG. You might as well give him McDonalds every day.
Glad to read on that you are certified as a dog food specialist. I agree with your writing. So, what do you recommend now that we
nixed the food in this video? Do you have a website with some recipes? I make bone broth, chicken or beef. Then to get my fussy
eater to have some greens using about one ounce of a green veggie, sometimes a carrot I puree about an ounce in one cup of the
broth. I then moisten any meat mixture that I've lightly cooked with the broth. This works. What about eggs in a dogs diet?
There is a new fda warning on Lugemes and potatoes for dogs
Won't soft foods rot a dogs teeth out?
I agree as I notice my dogs teeth aren't doing too great since I put him on a soft food diet.
That looks good enough for me to eat so it should be good for the dog!
Pasta?
Yes! Learn more about how wholesome grains are actually very nutritious for dogs when they are high quality sources fit for human consumption, vs the low quality feed grade grains found in kibble/cans: justfoodfordogs.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/JFFD-WhitePaper-20140714.pdf
Dr. Oscar Chavez grains are unnecessary for dogs tho!!
DUDE YIU DONT KNOW SHIT ABOUT RAW DIET. DONT OWN A DOG, YOU WILL KILL IT.. FUCKIN TOOL!
@@drochavez Grains are not good for dogs. Neither is starch. Also, flower vegetable oils are not easily digested or absorbed by their gut; coconut oil/butter is a much better choice in that regard.
grassabrutta read up on grain free and how bad it has been found to be a grain free diet is dangerous to a dog
macaroni?????????????????? i don't think so
Justin Warren
I was already skeptical about this video and then I saw them and the macaroni. Lost all credibility.
No Grains, Low healthy vegetable carbs only, no potatoes/No Sugar!!
Thanks for the info and recipe but what a waste of plastic ziploc bags, should've use tupperware in your video, at least they can be reuse. Now I'm left with this foul feeling inside.
Zchu, most dogs in the wild don't live long enough to suffer from long term deficiency induced ailments.
Wolves that aren't killed in an accident, or by humans live 8-10 years.
OkinawaWild exactly.
OkinawaWild more like 6-8
Studies have shown that vegan dogs are the healthiest dogs. Believe me, I'm a Veterinarian...and Author of the Long Life Diet for Dogs.
which studies?
well I've made it all except lamb. my picky boy won't eat this either. I'm so at a loss
Boil beef neck bones, pork back & neck bones & chicken paws until it turns more whitish then cool down, debone the meat, add the broth & the Bulgarian yogurt & a big berry plus some finely chopped veggies & your dogs will be annoyingly tracking you, everywhere you go and they will know you are the Alpha ! 😅
I always just go by if it is bad for you don't feed it to your dog.
Since when do dogs need pasta? rice?
NO GRAINS!!!! No Potatoes!!!
I was told that rice is not good for dogs either. I rd to find a Honest recipe for my dogs. Every single place they’ve had they’ve always added something that I know is not good for dogs. I understand the dogs in the wild didn’t get these vitamins but they also didn’t live long lives.
oh...what kind of stoves did/do your dog's use to make this in the wild? ...sickening...
hahahhahah you're awesome 😂😂 but in all seriousness .. i couldnt agree with you more ! 👌
hahahhahah you're awesome 😂😂 but in all seriousness .. i couldnt agree with you more ! 👌
Oh... what kind of dogs live in the wild.... none! Dogs dont live in the wild they are made by humans to depend on humans
When was the last time you saw a "wild" pack of shih tzus or labradoodles ? ...sickening...
You think my pomeranian is a wolf lol
I like to take my dogs to McDonald's.
Hi hi! Have you heard about the Samsa Dog Chef Genie (search on google)? I have heard some decent things about it and my co worker also got excellent results with it. Their Dog loved the change in diet :)
I stopped watching as soon as she said she adds safflower oil 🤦🏻♀️
Sizzle why?
Candy Landy not good for dogs or people. It’s a highly processed oil.
Dogs aren’t supposed to eat regular potatoes 🤦🏻♀️ especially the potato skins. I’ll continue with my own recipes.
Emily Booth Hey, can you share your recipe with me? Also, do you give you’re dogs multivitamins to make sure your dog gets all the vitamins. I really want to start making my dogs food, so I’m just curious and looking for answers. Thanks
Vets say no peas or sweet potatoes
too much grain. dogs need very little carbs and should never be fed wheat (or corn). if you chose to feed a carb based food rice would be a better choice, but should only be used in small amounts
theboogyman4 actually,dohs should have no carbs
Jimmy Johnson take a nutrition course please. I’ve consulted various veterinarian nutritionists and one of the macro nutrients that they need is carbs
Do dogs need iodine..like people with iodized salt?
If dogs eat a whole prey diet they get everything naturally through the thyroid of the animals they eat. If they eat this crap then they will need all the help they can get.
Every single meal DOES NOT need to be perfectly balanced! In the wild.... do you think each meal they eat is "perfectly balanced?" What our pets need is less vaccinations/prescription meds and for humans to stop it with the toxic chemicals already.
WARNING: don’t put rice in dogs diet!!!
Feed raw, no supplements needed.
Dogs survived and thrived for 31,650 years before commercial dog food hit the world. This is a new level of craziness. And those Zip loc bags will last 1,000 years in the landfill, long after these dogs and their owners and the owner's great-great-great-great grandchildren are dead.
I don't add vitamins and minerals
My vet just told me that feeding a dog liver is not a good idea. The liver is the bodies toxin filter she explained and contains natural toxins from the source animal. Anyone have thoughts on this?
I would talk to another vet... I know multiple who recommended liver in good healthy amounts
After your vet. told you to nix the liver, were you offered to try whatever they may be selling from their office, IE prescription diet. etc. ??
Macaroni for dogs???? Don't think so. Dogs should eat food meant for dogs.
Oh my goodness, not a straight forward process. I guess the annual blood work should show deficiencies. So that would steer us. I make beef jerky in our dehydrator. Please don’t fight over that.
Ginger? ARE YOU KIDDING ME????????
Sales pitch
This is nice but I prefer a raw diet.
I appreciate the sentiment and care, but dogs do not need and cannot digest grains, so why are you using rice, potatoes, etc? You are giving away that you don't know much about a species appropriate diet.
