(I cook the rice, lentils and split peas together) I also add finely chopped raw carrots. You can use organic lamb and lamb liver. I'd stay away from the chicken. A 1/4 boiled egg is good mixed in this for breakfast. For lunch she could have a tablespoon of cottage cheese mixed with plain unflavored yogurt. Don't worry about buying low fat as long as she has puppy's to nurse. I also cook steel cut oats for my girls. It can be for lunch with the cottage cheese mixture, or a tablespoon over breakfast or dinner.
Once a day add 1 cod liver oil gel cap. You can also add primrose oil, also in a gel cap, but don't give the entire primrose oil in one day. That one gel cap should be good for at least three days. |
Be careful with the beef, too, as that is another problem protein for many dogs. You can try the beef, and if she does fine on it that is great, but if she is still having problems, it would be best to go with a protein of the more "exotic" variety (i.e. Duck or Fish).
