Homecooking really isn't that hard
I really enjoy doing it for my babies. My yorkie is liver compromised and ever since I started homecooking, he has been completely seizure-free and stone/crystal-free...He's healthier than he has ever been!
You just have to read up on supplements. I would never supplement with plain vitamin A or vitamin D. As I mentioned before, I make sure to include carrots and/or sweet potatoes in their diets for the betacarotene and I give fish oil. I also supplement with vitamin b-complex and vitamin E. Also, the eggshells for calcium
I can't think of what else right now, but as I remember, I will post. It's important to get a good starter book or to get a couple of recipes from a dog nutritionist
