Hi...
Our yorkie has been eating our food for years.
Not as our vet said table scraps.
We started long ago when i smelled in the expensive bag of lamb and rice preserved with vitamin E...well it smelled rancid and made me think...
also when i visited in Italy they had food for dogs in bags ..
the older lady we visted was cooking for the dog it was pasta with sauce and u add the meat the dobermans were sitting like kings wiating for the food ..the aroma filled her kitchen..

anyway..
we cook for our selves and he gets too

the ratio we use is:
rice or pasta or lentils 1/3
veggies 1/3
lean beef, lean chicken, fish or lamb 1/3

he also gets a teaspoon of cottage cheese or fruit with yogurt for a snack daily

I read an article from New Zealand where the dog was 29 years
and he ate veggies & lentils and occassional meat ...
