They make an error of using brown rice in pretty much all of them. According to the veterinarian I work for(I’m a vet assistant) you should feed your dog the standard plain white rice. It’s better for them then brown rice.

Diane Forwell Wigham never mix meat with kibble.. It takes a different ph balance to digest kibble and meat. You end up doing more harm then good.. And cooked (boiled) meat barely has any nutritional value they can use vs raw meat.

Randy or statement is only partially true I work with wolves wolves actually in the wild dog just ate meat they eat twigs they eat berries they eat grass while their main meal when they can catch it is meat. dogs many of them have had the wolf bred out of them so now they are completely domesticated species therefore they are considered omnivore’s not carnivores.

They’re actually omnivores. Cats however, are carnivores.

I have considered this for a long while now….but I’m afraid of what’s in raw meat to hurt their tummies. Any advice, please???

Dogs immune systems are designed to handle raw meat so it shouldn’t hurt them at all. Wild game and fish need to be frozen for at least 3 weeks to kill parasites though. You should switch cold turkey from kibble to raw as the stomach ph needed to digest bone is different then that needed to digest kibble so doing both at the same time makes it difficult to digest bone. Dogs should be fed 80% meat 10% bone and 10% organ meat 5% of which should be liver. Feeding as many different protein sources is best to insure the dogs are getting all essential nutrients. You need At Least 3 proteins .

When I cook for the dogs I tend to go with veggies in reason. I will not give them canned veggies, besides being processed I worry about the high salt content. As for the chicken, I used dark meat (thighs mostly) because of the fat content for their coats and skin. If I am making fruit or flea cookies I use coconut oil. One of my guys has severe allergies and if I stop feeding him his daily dose of fats his skin gets mangy (literally looks like mange) his skin isn’t perfect but he has come along way! (It’s not the environment I also have five of his siblings and they’ve always had perfect coats)

Feeding your dogs cooked rice or pasta is the same as with humans – they are fillers – empty calories. These recipes would be awful for dogs’ teeth, not to mention, they aren’t nutritionally complete.
My dogs get a combo of raw beef/kangaroo mince, I add to it: lamb hearts, liver & kidney (as stated above 10% of diet), whole eggs, coconut oil, fish oil, vit e oil, turmeric, fish (tinned mackerel in oil), steamed pumpkin & broccoli. A banana or an apple (fruit + veg account for maybe 2% of diet). Sometimes, if my dogs have had a big day, I throw in a handful of oats, but it’s not necessary.
I supplement the mince mixture above along with chicken drumsticks for dinner and sliced beef neck is their breakfast.
No cooking. All raw. I prep 10kg’s which lasts 3 weeks. Just defrost their meal a few hours prior.

How is white rice better than brown rice? Seriously question.
Brittney Fox
- Edit
It’s much easier on the animals body digestion wise, it’s a lot harder on the body to digest brown. Also for chewing. White is easier to chew an brown is tougher. White is used the most in our industry to help with diarrhea an stomach upset. Helps clump up stool an make food easy to pass. While brown is way to rich an sticky.
