I concur.
Homecooked is better than commercial food.
In fact, that is all I feed but it has to be balanced.
Just for example, if the diet is deficient in calcium and the cal/phos ratio is not balanced, it can lead to heart and blood problems.
The information about not overdoing human food if it is not properly balanced comes from Dr. Remillard:
MSPCA-Angell: Nutrition Team
All canine nutritionists (at least those who are on staff at veterinary schools) insist that homecooked diets are supplemented.
