Canine Restricted Protein Diet (kidney) Here is the diet my Vet gave me:
1/4 lb ground beef (do not use lean round chucK)
2 cups cooked white rice without salt
1 hard cooked egg, finely chopped
3 slices white bread, crumbled
1 t (5 g) calcium carbonate (ground egg shells; drug and health food stores)
Also add a balanced supplement which fulfills the canine MDR for all vitamins and trace minerals.
Cook beef in skillet, stirring until lightly browned. Stir in remaining ingredients and mix well. This mixture is somewhaqt dry and its' palatability can be improved by adding a little waqter (not milk). Keep covered in refrigerator. Yield 1 1/4 lbs.
