For veggies she gets (20-25% also) zuccini, carrot, broccili, green pepper, yelloe squash or green beans. Usually she gets 2-3 kinds of veggies making up the 20-25%. She gets 1/4 cup of this mixture in the morning, 1/4 at night and 1/8-1/4 midday. Sometimes she gets a spoonful of cottage cheese or plain yogurt or a bite of raw veggies (lettuce, carrot, green pepper, cucumber) or fruit (apple, banana, cantaloupe, watermelon, strawberry). Most people also give a vitamin supplement. It is so overwhelming to make sure they are getting everything they need.

Thanks for the info, I guess you don't mix any with the dog food.
