Congratulations on feeding your dog a natural diet! I don't blame you for wanting to start feeding your dog home cooked. It takes a bit more planning and preparation than dry kibble, but it is worth the extra effort.

What you are feeding now is fine for short term, but it is not balanced for a long term diet. Some very good resources for feeding home cooked dog food are: b-naturals.com Look for their articles section dogaware.com There's also a great Yahoo list at pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/K9Nutrition/ working_dogz's Recommendations Dr. Pitcairn's New Complete Guide to Natural Health for Dogs and Cats Amazon List Price: $18.95 Used from: $8.29 Average Customer Rating: 5.0 out of 5 (based on 31 reviews) Natural Nutrition for Dogs and Cats Amazon List Price: $8.95 Used from: $5.65 Average Customer Rating: 4.0 out of 5 (based on 28 reviews) Nutrient Requirements of Cats and Dogs (Nutrient Requirements of Domestic Animals) Amazon List Price: $295.00 Used from: $200.00 Real Food for Dogs: 50 Vet-Approved Recipes to Please the Canine Gastronome Amazon List Price: $10.95 Used from: $11.40 Average Customer Rating: 4.0 out of 5 (based on 15 reviews) The Good Food Cookbook for Dogs: 50 Home-Cooked Recipes for the Health and Happiness of Your Canine Companion Amazon List Price: $19.99 Used from: $32.99 Average Customer Rating: 4.0 out of 5 (based on 16 reviews) Better Food for Dogs: A Complete Cookbook and Nutrition Guide Amazon List Price: $18.95 Used from: $8.958 Home-Prepared Dog & Cat Diets: the Healthful Alternative Amazon List Price: $42.99 Used from: $41.99 Average Customer Rating: 3.5 out of 5 (based on 23 reviews) Cooking the Three Dog Bakery Way Amazon List Price: $14.00 Used from: $7.41 Average Customer Rating: 5.0 out of 5 (based on 3 reviews) Raw Meaty Bones Promote Health (P) Amazon List Price: $29.95 Used from: $16.85 Average Customer Rating: 4.0 out of 5 (based on 23 reviews) Raw Dog Food: Make It Easy for You and Your Dog Amazon List Price: $12.95 Used from: $8.50 Average Customer Rating: 4.5 out of 5 (based on 20 reviews) Some recommended reading...

I have made my dogs treats. There are several books with recipes like the one below. The Ultimate Dog Treat Cookbook: Homemade Goodies for Man's Best Friend Real Food for Dogs: 50 Vet-Approved Recipes to Please the Canine Gastronome Bone Appetit: Gourmet Cooking for Your Dog Sources: Amazon.Com .

Maggie is picky but consistent Our Jack Russell terrier Maggie loves the combiation of scrambled up pan cooked ground beef and boiled rice. I cook her a batch of it every couple of days and then warm enough for each meal in the microwave. Simple and non-poisonous..

Feeding a dog.. I hope this will help you out, and I encourage you to ask more questions. I am going to assume that your dog has no major medical issues, if this is not the case, please let me know what is going on. I have spent months learning about the best way to feed our dogs, both online and offline, talking to many people in person, on the phone and over the internet.

I don't like to tell people that there is a hard and fast right and wrong way to feed, so that is often too inflexable for people and many people will not follow some diets for some reason or another regardless of how much it helps your dog. Feeding your dogs is much more simple than what your are doing right now. Actually if you continue to feed what your feeding right now will, your dog will likely get very ill.

Dogs need the calcium and other nutrients in bones. They can be substitutes from other sources, like supplments, but that is expensive and inferior to using the real thing. Dogs do not need any vegetables, no rice, no grain.

They can have a small amount of vegetables if you must use them for some reason,(like if you really have to have the fiber in the diet to help with digestion for some reason, this normally is not necessary). Here is what you feed: Just about any meat at all you can find at the grocery or meat market; whole chickens beef / chicken liver, gizards beef cuts whole rabbit pork sheep / lamb Go to the grocery and buy what is on sale, but your want meaty meat, chicken is the eaist to start with, and many people stay with chicken all the time. The best thing to do is to buy a whole chicken, with liver if possiable, otherwise, buy a container of liver.

You will want to feed about 90% meat and bones, and about 10% organ meat (liver, gizard) Now you have 2 choices, depending on your dog and what you are comfortable with, either just throw a large piece of chicken down on a plate / floor for your dog, or feed the whole chicken if your dog is large enough. This is the eaisest. Do not cook the meat in any way, do not microwave.No heat.

Period. Defrost is fridge if it is frozen. Bacteria are not a problem for dogs unless they are heavily immunosuppresed (chemothearpy) or are severly ill (stage 3/4 cancer, late stage lupus nephrtis, sepis, kidney failure, severe hepatic disease, etc. ), you already know if your dog is this sick.

If you do not feed comfortable allowing your dog to just chew up the meat and bones, which most dogs do quite well, but get be a bit conconerning for dogs that tend to swallow there food without chewing. If you don't want to feed the meat with the whole bones, you can either smash the bones up with a hammer or you can get a grinder and grind up the meat with the bones, and serve it as as ground meat and bones, raw. Feed the whole chicken, either at once if your dog is big enough or cut the chicken up and feed it in parts, but feed the whole chicken over a few days.

Fairly simple hun? Your dog will thrive! He will love his food, just about every dog I have ever seen loves raw chicken.

It is easy to feed, no cooking, no vegies needed, no rice. This idea I presented to you will either likely produce many questions or you will be offended by the concept and will look elsewhere for answers. I am happy to answer more questions for you, just let me know.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
