 Can you cook for Jack?
Would cooking Jack's food help with the cost? Looking for input from other Yorkie owners. Search the Internet for "low protein" dog food recipes-then ask your vet for approval before trying this. When my guy's system acts up, I cook him a mixture of rice, carrots, and venison - the amount of venison could be reduced. Ask about a vitamin to be sure Jack gets what he needs. We use venison because it is part of our diet and we don't have to buy it. Chicken could be used - just not too much protein. If Buddy is having serious digestive issues, I puree the mixture in the blender. For storage, I pour the mixture into ice cube trays and freeze. Pop out the cubes and store them in a zippered baggy. Rice is very cheap - a dollar's worth makes several week's food, coupled with the small amounts of meat and veggies it is very economical. (Don't put the fat or skin in the food.) ABOVE ALL, get your pet's doctor's opinion before trying this. |
