 Is this a good guideline?
I've been searching online for recipes for home cooking and I found something at dogiebag.com. It's supposed to be a daily feeding guideline that he uses for his boxers. Does it sound pretty good for our Yorkie"s.
1/4 lb meat (skinless chicken, ground beef, ground turkey, lamb, boneless fish, or sustitute 3 eggs or 1/2 c.low fat cottage cheese)
1 cup carbs (rice, potatoes or macaroni)
2 (1/2 - 1 c cooked) veggies (broccoli, green beans, cauliflower, carrots, squash, or peas)
After cooking these, I mixed them together and scooped out 1/2 c. servings and put them in freezer bags to freeze. I did a batch of chicken, macaroni and mixed veggies (carrots, green beans, corn) and another batch of steak, eggless noodles, and mixed veggies (green limas, green beans, carrots).
I'm really trying to get the hang of this, because I only want the best for my baby and I'm sick of hearing nearly every day about another food or treat being recalled because of poor inspections, and/or unsanitary conditions.
I've got to get things settled because I go out of town the end of this month for a week and will have to leave my Sparky in the care of my daughter. I want to make sure he's eating well and in a routine so I will worry a little less (or is that even possible?) |
