Homemade Diets: Attributes, Pitfalls, and a Call for Action

It's behind a paywall, but you can probably access it for free at your local library. If I were doing home-cooked meals for Bella, I would definitely print it out and refer to it frequently.

I DO have problems with some of her pronouncements on commercial dog foods, and I'll post more on that later, since it gets to the heart of the Purina/Blue Buffalo controversy.
Her expertise is in clinical nutrition for sick animals. She also is very well versed in what commercial options work for those animals. If you have problems with her pronouncements on dog foods, then you don't need to follow what she says.
