Recipe: Simple 5 Ingredient Homemade Dog Food

Experts in canine nutrition will tell you that homemade dog food is the only way to provide your pet with the exact nutrition that he needs. When done properly, making homemade meals allows you to provide your pet with a diet that meets his needs through every life stage. This simple homemade food won't be appropriate for all dogs, but your veterinarian can help you add supplements or additional ingredients to cater the recipe to your pup's needs.

Unless you plan on studying canine nutrition yourself, it's imperative that you speak with your veterinarian and/or a canine nutritionist before switching your pet to a homemade diet. Even homemade dog food recipes that have been formulated/recommended by veterinarians may not provide all of the essential nutrients that your dog needs.

If the diet you feed isn't nutritionally balanced, your dog can become nutritionally deficient within just a matter of days. Similarly, eating too much of a certain nutrient could actually poison your pet over time.

This is great. Two suggestions...pre-grind the eggshells into a powder. And toss in a chopped clam or two for iodine.

Unfortunately, DMVs receive little training in canine nutrition but there are a few who have teamed up with MDs, cellular biologists, and others to study the history of dogs and the type of foods they obtained through their evolution. It's nice to see their recommendations being put to use in this fine video, thank you for this simple healthy recipe.

If I don’t give my whippet some rice with his raw diet he gets diarrhea

No need to cook any of these ingredients. Raw food = healthy happy dog.

Thats a very unbalanced meal. You should lead the video with that.

Do NOT ever feed your pets rice! EVER! Why do people think rice is good for oets? Rice is even bad for people!
