I have to smile at this. Most people feed their dogs kibble that is grain based. It is usually pumped full of grain with a little bit of three times baked meat with added synthetic vitamins and minerals and people are happy with it. But all of a sudden when people want to make their own food it becomes a complicated issue.
I cooked for my Gracie for the first year of her life because she refused all kibble. It is difficult to find accurate information about what correct dog nutrition actually is since dog food companies have muddied the waters on this issue, but once you find what a dog's body was actually intended to digest it gets easier.
I don't cook her food any more but I do feed a good grain free raw food that she loves and has done very well on. I would recommend The Missing Link food supplement. It has many of the nutrients and enzymes that cooking destroys plus vitamins and minerals. |
