I agree.
There is soooo much on the net about homecooking but not nearly enough is correct. I even found something that was printed in a veterinary journal (don't have access to the whole thing) about homecooking not being healthy and I think their point was going to be that it isn't done right most of the time.

I would sooner feed dog food then unbalanced homecooked. I did that for awhile and am just thankful it didn't hurt Ellie.

Homecooked is great but there are recipes that meet AAFCO guidelines that you can buy online and you can talk to a nutritionist. Then there are no questions.
