Love White teeth and heathly food

Ever since I lost my 1 year old yorkie to Liver shunt disease I am very careful what I give his baby brother (not biological). After a lot of research I formulated this recipe and I can't tell you how shiney my boy's hair is and how great he looks. For his teeth I use a wet wash rag that I wrap a small part around your finger put organic toothpaste on the tip and just rub all around his teeth. At the same time he thinks I am playing with him. My vet says he has the whitest teeth he has ever seen and that he eats better then he does.
A word to the wise Garlic & Onion are very toxic to our little furry ones...The one recipe I read had garlic in it and that is a no no...actually all spices are bad...with my recipe there is plenty of flavor.

If you are concerned about liver shunt a small drop of organic Milk Thistle can be added to his food after warming every other day. Also a drop of liquid Gluscosamine & Chondroitin is great for their joints.


PLEASE ALWAYS CHECK WITH YOUR VET BEFORE USING ANYONE SUGGESTIONS


Charlie's Organic Recipe (he is 7 lbs and gets this mixture twice a day) One batch lasts around 5-6 days. Always smell your dogs food to be sure it is fresh.

1 small jar organic carrots baby food
1 large jar of organic sweet potatoes baby food
1 sm jar of of organic Pumpkin/Apple baby food (can use 1/4 cup of pure pumpkin not pie mixture)

boil
1/2 cup dry brown rice with 1 3/4 water

1 organic skinless/boneless chicken breast (boil in seperate pot)

Mix all jar food with pumpkin & cooked rice (store in Refridgerator)

Chop up chicken in place in serperate container

Breakfast

1/4 cup mixture with a small amount of chicken reheat in Microwave for 15 seconds then add over the top 1/4 tsp of olive oil and 1 tbsp of cottage cheese (must have dairy) Always let food sit for a minute to be sure it is cool enough. I use the reheat mode

Dinner

same as breakfast without cottage cheese

Treats
Beefaatersv LilBitz Pure sweet potatoes
raw carrots
small amount of apple
Chick peas (may give them gas)

I leave out a small dish of Halo chicken dry food for in between meal and fresh water but he really doesn't eat much.

If you really think you must give them bones then a boiled beef shank is best but I still don't recommend it.

ALWAYS REMEMBER WHAT WE LOVE ISN'T ALWAYS GOOD FOR US!
