Stew Recipe Here is the stew recipe I am currently using. It is in the 'Homemade Yorkie Recipes (Food & Treats) thread in the 'Yorkie Health & Diet' Forum. There are tons of recipes you can find. In the following recipe, I avoid garlic and rosemary. I don't have kelp powder, so I add multi vitamin in the food before serving. If you use turkey, make sure you only use turkey breast. Regarding Enzyme powder, I am currently using "D-zyme Powder" by Solid Gold. It is good for the digestive tract. But I believe other YTers can give you some other choices, too. Dogs - varies depending on age, activity level, health, weight and season. These are guidelines based on weight; the total is per day and should be divided between two meals: Up to 10 pounds - 1 to 11/2 cups 11 to 20 pounds - 2 to 3 cups 21 to 40 pounds - 4 cups For each additional 20 pounds, add 2 cups. SPOT'S CHICKEN STEW 21/2 pounds whole chicken or turkey (bones, organs, skin and all) 1/4 cup chopped fresh garlic 1 cup green peas 1 cup coarsely chopped carrots 1/2 cup coarsely chopped sweet potato 1/2 cup coarsely chopped zucchini 1/2 cup coarsely chopped yellow squash 1/2 cup coarsely chopped green beans 1/2 cup coarsely chopped celery 1 tablespoon kelp powder 1 tablespoon chopped rosemary 11 to 16 cups spring water For dogs only: Add 8 ounces whole barley and 6 ounces rolled oats, and adjust the water content to 16 cups spring water or enough to cover the ingredients. (The grains are not recommended for cats.) Yield: 20 cups. Combine all ingredients in a 10-quart stainless-steel stockpot with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, then turn down heat as low as possible and simmer for 2 hours; carrots should be very soft. Remove from heat, let cool, and debone the chicken. With an electric hand mixer or a food processor, blend the ingredients into a puree. The stew should be slightly thicker for dogs and more soupy for cats. Using plastic baggies or yogurt containers, divide into meal-sized portions. Refrigerate three days' worth and freeze the rest.
