Here's a recipe example, the quantities are for a 35lb dog. It seems like the high carb one is the only one with an ok amount of fat.
High carb
117g 95% beef, 525g sweet potato, 8.5g corn oil, 156g broccoli
21% protein, 19% fat, 60% carbs
Moderate carb
149g 95% beef, 375g sweet potato, 22g oil, 117g broccoli
23% protein, 35% fat, 42% carb
Low carb
266g 95% beef, 200g sweet potato, 19g oil, 58.5g broccoli
38% protein, 39% fat, 23% carb

I would check out the balance it auto balancer where you can play with fat amounts.
I have my dog Winston on a petdiets diet that is higher protein, moderate fat and carbs. While I really like BalanceIt, I like the supplement recommended by petdiets for healthy dogs better and I like the diets from petdiets better. They're $25 (or less if you buy more than one at the same time). |
That's my fear.
I tried playing with it, but I keep ending up with tons of carbs or like 35% fat.
Thanks for the suggestion, but I'm leery about spending $25 on something she may not eat.
