| I did it! Well I did it Chicken, Sweet Potato, Carrots, and Peas! I broke it down to 3 meals a day! So proud of myself! She got her first meal of it tonight at dinner time and ate all put a few tiny pieces! If she does well with it for about a week I will order the supplement!

| Congratulations! Looking forward to hearing how Callie does with her homecooked meals. You may tempt me to make the leap.

| I'll be watching. I am pretty tempted to give it a try. What is the balance it supplement. A powder or liquid you mix in. Do they get softer poo? |

WOOOO HOOOOO!!!! Callie will love it - and you'll enjoy making it for her (so much better, I think, than not really knowing what we're putting into their 'little' bodies). Looks delicious, Taylor - I made that switch well over 2 years ago and have never looked back - very satisfying all round. And well done for getting out to the shops to get everything organised, bought, and sorted for Callie - bet it was good to get out!!! Sally + Harry x | |

| You're lucky she's eating the peas. I don't grind up the food all together which would minimize the problem of our pups' just eating what they want. Katie doesn't always eat her vegetables, but I'm confident that, with supplementing it with BalanceIt, Katie is eating a very healthy diet. Congratulations for taking this big step. IMO sure Callie loves her new food.

| All of this homecooking has got me wanting to do it! lol. Here's the problem tho, I KNOW Jackson ... he won't touch potatoes (sweet or regular), or peas, green beans, or corn, or anything like that. Even mixed in with other stuff, he will always spit it out. So I found a recipe on balance it.com that is literally just chicken + the carnivore blend. (1)Chicken, ground, crumbles, cooked, pan-browned241.0 g8 1/2oz[CENTER]PLUS2 1/4 teaspoons (9.36 gram) of Balance IT Original Blends® - Carnivore Blend® once a day 1 bottle of Balance IT Original Blends® - Carnivore Blend® will last about 64 days So he could literally just eat... chicken? Or turkey if I wanted to switch it up? As long as the Balance IT blend is in there? I mean that would make things very easy for me lol.

| Certain blends use more of the supplement, so when some vitamins are lost due to heating it up, there is still enough supplement. That seems like a bit of waste to me, so I use the regular blend.

Why not use grains and just blend with the meat?

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | Way to go, Taylor! I remember how excited I was when I was homecooking...there is something just fun and satisfying about it, isn't there? Keep us posted on how it's going.
